Whats up everyone! Hope you are all doing well and had a sick week this week! Ours was solid. It feels like we are just working a lot. We walked a ton this week and were out for a while each day. It's starting to feel like I've knocked so many of the doors in this city but there's still so much more. It's alright tho. Feels like I'm learning a lot hear in São Miguel and that God is trying to teach me something so we'll keep moving forward. This week was super chill tho. Nothing crazy happened. Monday and Tuesday didn't really have anything happen and on Wednesday I had a division. I went to Marachal which is another little town close to here and it was super cool. There's lots of good members there and some really good people. It was also a super successful day where like nothing fell through which never happens. It's a super confusing town tho because there aren't like roads and there's just this one main road that's always full of cars ...

Whats up everyone! How are you guys doing? Hope everything is going well! Hear that there is some snow back home so thats pretty dope, its so hot hear so some snow would be cool. This week was pretty good. We had zone p day on monday which was super fun. We played a ton of soccer and I really am so bad but its alright. Brazilians are crazy tho. Zone pday is always dope to see some people I haven't seen since getting here. Then on Tuesday we had zone conference. Sister Hanks always makes waffles for zone conference with maple syrup and peanut butter and nutella. One of my favorite meals hear on the mission. Then zone conference was really good and super uplifiting. I learned a lot about how I can study better and help people follow Christ! Its always super awesome to hear from President and Sister Hanks. On Monday night we stayed at the AP's house and ordered a giant pizza. It was so fire! Pizza here is kinda goofy but this pizza was like an American Pizza. It was huge too. Slic...

Whats up guys! Hope you guys are doing well! We have transfers tomorrow so my pday is today. Butttt nothing is happening to me. I'm staying here in São Miguel for the hottest part of the year and I'm actually really excited. It's just really hot. I also get to finish training Elder Lacerda which is super hype. I'm way excited. This last transfer actually flew by tho, time is flying. Nothing big in our zone is changing too much which is nice for the progress we are making. These last two weeks have been pretty chill. It's been getting super hot, but also really rainy at times. We've been walking and working a ton which has been super nice. We have found lots of new people and some people with some really good potential which I'm really excited about! We also had a baptism this Sunday which was super cool! We baptized Romildo before church and he was confirmed during sacrament. It was my first time baptizing anyone so I was kinda nervous that I was gonna mess ...

Whats up guys! Happy New Year! Hope you guys all had a great week, good Christmas and Happy new year. I'm pretty solid. The mission is going pretty well. We've been on our grind these last couple weeks. Teaching lots, talking lots, and a whole lot of other stuff. We've been able to find some good people, but not a whole lot of people who have progressed super far. But we did find my boy Romildo, he came to church last week because his buddy came and we were able to teach him a couple times this week but it was hard cause his buddy was just smoking and drinking during the lessons so that didn't help too much. Then his buddy went on a trip and we were able to teach him alone and it was super good! He came to church again on Sunday and we were able to mark a date with him for this Saturday to be baptized! It was super awesome and he's a super good dude, but still needs some work. No one else came to church tho which kinda sucked but it's alright. One thing that I f...
