A Visit to the Garoto Chocolate Factory

 Elder Jones & Elder Pettitt

Josh's zone took a field trip to a huge chocolate factory recently on one of there preparation days.  It's owned by Hershey and called Garoto Chocolate located in the city of Vila Velha.  They were allowed to eat all the chocolate they wanted while they were there on a tour. Josh ate 33 pieces...but one of the other Elders the week before broke a record by eating 76 pieces!!  They are now famous there.

Elder Pettitt & Elder Jones meet at the Mission Office in Vitoria Brazil.

His apartment...not quite like the office views : )

Josh has a new companion who is new to Brazil. He's from Washington State and his name is Elder Jones. They met each other the week before Christmas and moved together into a new apartment in a new area of Brazil. There had never been missionaries working in this area so they actually put 4 Elders there to "open" the area. They all live together in one apartment and are settling into the area. They are getting to know many members there and working hard to help grow the ward.
