First Week At The MTC

I finally made it to the actual MTC. This week has definitely been super busy and chaotic but has also been super spiritual and I have learned a lot. I met my comp and district in person on Wednesday. Everyone is super chill and cool. We pretty much do everything together and are basically like brothers even after only like 6 days. We have played a lot of basketball and lifted weights every morning so far. Everyone says the first week is the busiest and I hope they're right because in the last 6 days I've had a total of like maybe 7 hours that haven't been spent in a classroom or in a devotional. We have definitely had our fun though with kadama tournaments, wrestling outside the dorms, and making sick freestyle beats. This week we get to go to the temple twice which is also super cool and I'm way excited for it. One thing we've focused hard on is testimony and conversion which has been awesome. Last night we had a devotional about keeping standards, living the commandments, and striving for conversion not because it is required of us but because we love Jesus and what he has done for us.

Merry Christmas Everyone. It still doesnt feel like its Christmas Eve today, but whether I'm ready for it or not Christmas is coming and going. This week for me has been super busy and I have learned a lot. I went on three different divisions this week and every time I went to a different area, so I only worked in my area for about a day and a half. My first division was on Tuesday with Elder Couch. He is american and just got here 2 weeks ago, so he's still working on the portuguese. His area is more country than mine so it was super awesome. This was an awesome opportunity to put my portuguese to the test because my comp for the day didnt know anything. It was super awesome to see the progress I have made in the language and to communicate pretty much normally with everyone we taught. The next division was with our LZs. I went to their area with Elder Arce who is from Peru. He only speaks Spanish and Portuguese(or so he says haha). But I learned a lot from him. He is the most...

Melhor Pday Da Missão

This week was super awesome and we ended with the best pday of the mission so far. This week we have been preparing a family to get baptized and helping them to stop drinking coffee. As we have continued to go to their house, they have been more willing to participate in the lesson. The first week we were there the kids didn't participate much and their parents made them come listen, but after a week or two they are always the first ones sat down ready to hear the lessons. Its been super cool to see there progress and I hope we can help them be baptized this week. I went on a division this week to the lzs area again. I was able to talk to some of the people that I taught there last time which was awesome. The goal of the division was to mark as many people as possible for baptism. So the entire day the only lesson we taught was baptism, which worked. We were able to put six people on a dates for baptisms and one of them even got baptized the next day. In this division we were prett...
