What a Coincidence!

As some of you know my parents have gotten a new foreign exchange student, BUT the cool thing is that it's all inner-twined with Brazil. 7 years ago my family opened there doors for the first time to Rodolfo he was a fun Brazil student eager to learn English and have fun with the Somervilles. It was a great experience. Funny how things work out that my mother has kept in touch with that family and then Tyler get the call to their home town in Brazil. Also my parents got the opportunity open their home to yet another young Brazil student the younger brother of Rodolfo, Hugo. My mother talked to Hugos' mother and she says to my mother "you take care of my son and I will take care of yours". Funny how it all works out that the youngest of my family is there and the youngest of theirs is here. They both have mothers to watch out for them and the lord is guiding them both the whole time. My mom also says "that there is no coincidence's in life that it is all gods plan."

So much has happened

So last time I left you Tyler had not left the mission home. We he has now been in the field for 6 months and he is doing wonderful. He sends small emails home each week and I thought well I will just put them together a couple at a time now I have a ton to catch you all up on.
He was sent to California as a holding place in the field till his visa came through. It was a great sort experience for him but made him ready for Brazil. He has done very well and was struggling with the language for a while but when I talked to him on mothers day he said that it was getting easer and easer. He also so said that he was even thinking in Portuguese. Here is a story he sent my mom that has made his experience so for so enjoyable.
Hey we had a baptism this week she is 10 years old, this is a cool story ok. We have been working alot with this family the whole family we thought was baptized, good family, they have this son igor that loves me so much and we use there computer to send emails and stuff. They are all baptised and but there daughter is not the moms real daughter its her step daughter and she has 2 little sisters missionaries have tried to baptise them but the real mom would always say no but the step daughter is a twin and she has a brother that went on a mission and the mom opened her heart let us in and let us baptise the sisters family of the members it was awesome that we could help this family. Now her real mom is coming to church to and we have been teaching her it awesome! We have been praying for help to find more baptisms and yesterday we had bishop call us he said that one lady that has been coming to church and isnt a member. We talked with her and she wants to be baptized. We will baptize her on saturday along with this family we will be baptising 4 on saturday awesome amazing experience.
This was dated May 17th
He had a birthday and we sent him a box but it has yet to get to him. I know that even when we have talked to him he is growing up so much. Same old Tyler with a hint of responsibility. We are so proud of his accomplishments so far and he is looking forward to maybe soon making district leader on his next transfer.
I hope to keep you all more informed better for now on thanks for fallowing.
Crystal Somerville Bills .as you can see he looks great.....!
