Chill Week (Week #70)

Hello All!
Just a really fast email today!
Everything is good here in the Lagoa Redonda ward. Elder Romero and I focused a lot on teaching with the members this last week to try and get some good references of people to teach. We had 4 awesome investigators progressing really well but none of them were able to make it to church because of the distance. 
We went to the city of Cascavel this last wednesday to do a split with the missionaries there and that was cool! It was a beautiful city that reminded me a little of Quixada!
Other than that nothing new really happened here, just the daily grind!
Hope you all have a good week!
Love Elder Ferrell


Mom is adding the following from her personal message this week...

My week was good. Everyone is healthy and we are hopefully moving to a new and wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy wyyyyyyyyyyy better house this week so that makes me happy. 
We worked a lot with the members this last week which was interesting.  The members are the only way we will be able to get some momentum here because the church is soo far away from our area that we cant get people to go to church. To put it in perspective, our ward covers the same amount of space as if all of San Fernando Valley AND Santa Clarita, and imagine that our church building was the only place for all these people to go to church. Now imagine that even though our church building is there in valencia, as missionaries we were assigned to work in San Fernando to try and build up that area to open up a ward there, and that's how our area is, minus the fact that this isn't america and not everyone has cars.....SOO were having to pray and work a lot to find the miracles here but there's definitly people here waiting for us!
