Tour Da Missão

One more week down in the transfer and were starting it off with a bang. This week was super successful and we we able to learn a ton of new ways to improve and help people become converted to the gospel. 
This week was probably one of the most fun weeks I've had in the mission. 

Cool things of the week:

1. I got to know the new district this week. Our district is super dope and full of a bunch of dawgs. We have a pretty small district, but everyone is super experienced. It's crazy that I have 10 months in the mish and I'm still one of the youngest people in our district. This is something that has helped me a lot. Being able to learn from the people who have been here longer and to see their different styles and personalities while teaching.

2. Finally got to see my trainer after 6 months. Since I left training in my first area I hadn't seen my trainer at all, even at zone conference. Seeing as you see half the mission every zone conference the odds of that are pretty slim, but it happened. But now he is my zone leader which is awesome. We were able to do a division this week and it was super cool. We were able to catch up a ton. It was super cool to hear and tell the cool stories that have happend in the last 6 months. It was also super cool to see how much we have both improved as missionaries.

3. This week we had the mission tour. Elder and Sister Schmeil came and taught ud a ton of cool things about how we can better invite others to keep commitments that we give them and how to better carry the spirit into the lessons we give.

4. This Sunday we were able to bring a good amount of people to church and were able to mark them for baptism which is awesome.

5. I cooked a bunch of 15 year olds in soccer after they said americans dont know how to play. Then after I beat them 10-5, they made me play futemesa, which is like ping pong soccer and i got humbled real quick.
Im still having a blast on the mission and loving the new area. Im super excited to see what this transfer brings and to see the amount of hard work we can put into this area. Shoot me an email if you want to talk and I'll get back to you on pday.

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...
