Conferência Geral

This week the was the last week of this transfer which flew by. Also it ended with the general conference which motivated us a ton to be able to help people listen to the prophets and apostles.

We started off this week focusing on a family that we had marked for baptism. I have pushed more for baptism with this family than anyone in my entire mission. It's gotten to the point were everytime I show up they ask what more I going to teach them about baptism. Unfortunately they weren't baptized this week, but they did watch general conference so hopefully they got some answers and will be ready soon.

One other family we found this week is a family of inactives that has 4 people that aren't baptized yet. They live in like the middle of the jungle, but the are super cool só were going to keep teaching them.

There has been a ton of cool things I've done this week.

1. I was on a division and my comp for the day went to take a shower. When he went in he shut the door to hard and the handle broke trapping him in. He passed about 20 minutes in the batheroom and we couldn't get him out. With four 19 year old boys in the housr we figured the only logical thing to do was kick the door down and I got the honors. After telling my comp to step back, I kick the door twice and it broke. 

2. Ive been getting in to arm wrestling lately. So far I challenged all the Elders in my district and even the branch President and I'm undefeated.

3. We watched general conference and the second coming really is coming. After Russell M. Nielson talking about two conferences in a row it super cool to know we are actually in the later days and were able to people understand that. 

4. We finally sent on of my roommates home this week. We definitely had a party for him monday night and ordered pizza dor his last night in the mish.

Até próxima semana

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...
