Hey everyone! Hope you guys have had a great week and that you're all doing well. 

This last week has been kinda crazy trying to figure out how to train but I think I've gotten it down kind of. Me and my trainee are learning together but it's really going well. Training is wild though, lots of responsibilities, but it's been flying by. I've really enjoyed it and think it'll work out well. My trainee is from São Paolo and he's pretty funny. He's trying to learn English so I help with English and he helps with portuguese. But its pretty funny cause sometimes I'll mess with him in English and he'll get mad but in English and it doesn't really make sense. But he really has been awesome and came to the mission really prepared which has been such a blessing. 

This new area is pretty sick too. We're living with another companionship too which is super fun. They're both super dope dudes, and they're the zone leaders too, so high expectations for us. There's some really good people here, but we're starting to cycle out the older people and create a new teaching group. Hoping for some miracles to happen. Its super pretty here and the city is just surrounded by fields of sugar cane. There's also this super big hill that divides the city. We live on top and the chapel is in the bottom which really sucks. It's like 30 minutes away from our house so thats a big change from my last area. Luckily we work here on top and the other elders have to go down to the bottom and climb up everyday. We've found some good people to progress and teach and hope that we can get them to church this week!

Nothing super crazy happened this week though. There was this one lady who had a dream about getting baptized after we invited her to be baptized, but then the next day she said she didn't want to and didn't want to go to church anymore which sucked. We also went to Maceió twice this week and its kinda funny how we get there. They just have these vans that go through all the cities at random times picking people up, so we just grabbed a van and went to Maceió, but these vans are like packed full of people and they pick people up at the most random places, it's honestly kind of like hitchhiking. We did have zone conference this week and it was all centered on Jesus Christ. I loved it so much and I love learning more about Christ.

Awesome Video:
Our mission president showed us this video at zone conference and I love it so much. I hope you guys can all take the time to watch!

  What up everyone! How are you guys doing? Hope you guys have a had a solid one. This week was super awesome! We made a goal to find good people this week and it went really well! We had some really good lessons but it was also a real grind so pday is coming in clutch. We managed to get 4 people in church this week which were all new people from this week! It was a big time miracle. We are also hoping to get two people on date for this last weekend in March! This month and transfer have really flown by. Time flies on the mission really. Next week we have transfers so I hope that I stay here but I'm willing to go wherever, it's all on the Lord's timing rn. This week we also made a big effort to go out with members and we had some awesome member lessons. The spirit is always so strong when we get out with the members and it's been so helpful! The work here is going really well and I'm super excited. The miracles are coming which has been awesome. Just gotta keep grin...

Whats up everyone! Hope you guys are doing well. I'm solid. This week was kinda crazy. We've been living with six elders in one house for like a week now and it's been crazy. It's so hard to keep anything clean or organized and we have like no food but it's been way fun.  This week was good tho! Weve been progressing a lot and I've just been taking it one day at a time. We have two dates marked for this Sunday with Diana and her son. Please pray from them! They are so awesome and doing awesome stuff! I'm super excited for them. This week might also be my last week here in São Miguel so I'm hoping to finish out strong! We've been working with some other people too and we were able to have 4 people in church this week which was awesome. It's the most We've been able to get in a Sunday here in São Miguel. This week we worked and walked alot and it was super good! This week was crazy tho because the zone leaders did a division with the assistants...

Hey what's up everyone! How are you guys doing? Hope you guys had a great weekend. I'm gonna make this email short because it's only been like 3 days.  But I made it to my new area! It's a super cool place. It's a city called Estância and it's super beautiful. There's like rivers all throughout the city and it's super cool. The people here are awesome and the food is too. Our first night a member invited us over to eat with them and the food was sooooo good. Probably one of the best meals I've had here on the mission. This area is a branch so it's a little different than the places that I've been at, but it's so awesome. The members are so great and church yesterday was awesome. I got to introduce myself in sacrament meeting and everyone was super cool. I'm super excited for this transfer! Being a District Leader has been pretty cool so far too.  The transfer was kind of crazy tho because our first bus ride took way long so we missed ...
