Brasillian stores 25 Oct 2004
There are a number of stores, check the yellow pages. Made in Brasil (sp) has a number of import items, I'm pretty sure they have farofa.

Arroz e feijao 25 Oct 2004
OK - the rice is relatively easy to get right. The beans are harder to get right 'cause you need a pressure cooker.

Rice - In a large saucepan or pot, (depending on quantity).

2-3 Tbsp. cooking oil, to taste
2 cups Long-grain white rice

(The rice can be any arbitrary quantity, as long as you can use the same measuring cup or whatever to measure twice that volume for the water. Add more oil for lots of rice)

Have 4 cups of hot water ready to dump into the pot

Heat the pan, add the oil and rice, and stir them until a few of the grains start to brown a bit. Add garlic salt and onion salt in reasonable quantities during this process.

When you see a few darkened grains of rice, dump in the water, stir the whole mess once or twice, cover it tightly and turn down the heat so it doesn't boil over. Let it cook ~10 min, until there is no visible liquid water and it looks cooked. Don't check too often and don't ever stir it. Overcooking a bit at low heat does nothing any harm - the browned part at the bottom is great. :)

This is also nice if you add some chicken boullion or broth to the water. Just keep the liquid level constant.

Feijao - best bet is to go to the grocery store, buy some cans of red beans (NOT kidney:) and heat them on the stove. You can add some garlic powder or chicken boullion to flavor them.

Authentically, you'd put the beans in a pressure cooker, add a small amount of water and some cooking oil, garlic and salt and perhaps (again) chicken boullion powder, seal, and put on the stove for 20 min. or so. Makes that nice caldo de feijao that I loved so much. Gotta have a pressure cooker, though. I can't guarantee the cooking time, either - this is 5-year-old memory at this point.

Presidente Carone de Pouso Alegre 25 Oct 2004
Como falei na ultima mensagem, encontramos com Antonio Carone em San Diego semana passada. Eu conversei com ele hoje a tarde, porque ele me contou em San Diego que este domingo ele teria um reuniao com Elder Richard G. Scott logo depois de voltar para Brasil. Entao estavamos com muito curiosidade sobre esta visita com um apostolo.

Entao a estaca de Sao Joao da Boa Vista se-dividiu, e Pouso Alegre virou um Distrito com Antonio Carone como Presidente, Espitido e o 1o coselheiro dele e um missionario retornado que nao conheco e o 2o conselheiro. O distrito consiste de Pouso Alegre, Ouro Fino, e Alfenas agora. Nao sei sobre SJBV, mas sei que Presidente Nogueiro foi desobrigado e o filho dele e o novo presidente de estaca de SJBV.

Eu tenho tanto orgulho, sim orgulho, sobre Carone, porem nao fizemos muito com ele, porque ele era tao eleito. Ele e a unica pessoa com quem tenho contato da missao. Ele veu para Utah por esta Conferencia Geral passada e ficou com meus pais por uma semana. (Se algum de voces conhecem ele e gostaria encontrar ele, me contate e vou ajudar voce contatar ele. Ele normalmente viaja para EU 2 vezes por ano pelas conferencias medicas.) Nos encomtrams em San Diego como falei, e passamos por Sea World na seixta e as prias no sabado com ele. Sabado de manha Carone e eu fomos correndo da manha (ele e forte, sempre estava tentando achar uma subida mais dificil de mim!) Cada noite fomos a casa dos Zollinger (onde Carone estava) onde ficamos conversando sobre a missao. No domingo fomos para a ala deles, e o bispo pediu que contamos 166 em Portugues, so nos 5.

Bem posso falar de mais sobre nosso tempo juntos, mas provavelment fica enjoado. Escrevo por que semana passada me deu tantos lembrancas da missao, eu queria compartilhar.

Visita com os Zolllinger 24 Oct 2004
Semana passada nossa familia foi para San Diego, porque Bispo Carone de Pouso Alegre estava la por uma conferencia medica. Entao, fomos na casa de Presidente Zollinger cada dia, e ficamos conhecendo eles.

Quero dizer que ate la, nunca conhecemos eles (alem de uma noite familiar com eles antes da missao deles), mas realmente podemos dizer que eles sao otimos. Amamos Presidente Fabricio, e agora amamos a familia Zollinger. Sao gente boa demais. Da para ver que eles eram um bom casal, e que fizeram uma grande obra na terra promitida, Ribeirao Preto. Os missionarios que serviram com eles foram abencoados para conhece-los.

Elder Lott 17 May 2004
I wanted to let everyone know that Elder Lott passed away last week in a plane crash. His funeral was today in Utah. The obituary was in the Arizona Republic newspaper yesterday. Elder Lott was born in Tucson and probably had family here. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family and loved ones.

Backpack? 10 Jan 2004
I received this question about backpacks:

There has been a lot of confusion concerning the backpack requested in President Simplicio's letter to missionaries. I have seen many questions, but no one has given us an answer. Is there some way to get specific information clarifying just what is needed?


The best current advice on backpacks is as it has been since the start of this mission. Backpacks are not to be used in Brazil for proseletyzing. Instead, briefcases are used. Nice briefcases can be bought in Brazil for this purpose for about $35 (at the time of this posting).

Further information directly from the mission president's executive secretary:

The new arriving missionaries should bring money to buy the mission bag. There is a mission bag which we sell, it costs about $15.

In the letter we are sending out we are asking the missionaries to bring money with them, this money is to buy the mission bag and have money to start their mission.

Members from Sao Jose do Rio Preto 16 Aug 2003
Hi, I am trying to find phone numbers and addresses for some of the people I knew while I was in São José do Rio Preto. If anybody knows how to contact any of the following families/people please let me know!

Benjamin de Lima and Maria das Graças de Paula

Eunice Jacomeli

Luis, Fátima, Victor, Rafaela, and their little brother - Their last name is either Miola or Câmara

Raquel Barroso (I think her mother's name is Geralda)

All of these people either lived in the Quintas das Paineiras area (I can't remember the name of the branch adjacent to it) or attended that ward/branch in 2000, but I know some of them have moved to other areas in the city.

Thanks,

Jason Smith
