Baptism, Heat, And More Baptism

Hey everyone! Hope y'all are doing great, it's been a few weeks since I've written an email so I'll catch yall up a bit! 


Two weeks ago we had transfers, and now I'm in one of the bigger cities in my mission called Lafaiete! I'm comps with Elder McConkie, who fun fact is the great grandson of Elder Bruce R McConkie! We're leading our zone here which has been sick, we're learning a ton together. He's got 18 months on his mission, and it's his first transfer being a zone leader, so we're learning a ton together! 


This last week we helped one of the recent converts sons here in our ward be baptized! His name is Ricky, it was really special helping him and his dad, who did the ordnance! And it was super cool because the next day he helped pass the sacrament! 


This past week we had a leadership council which was dope, super spiritual and super cool to see everyone again! Also, the food there is always so good! 


Right now we're in the process of helping our friend Luiz change his life around, and get rid of his cocaine addiction, it's been tough so far. But he's improving day by day. 


It's been super, super hot here recently, and everyone keeps telling us that summer hasn’t even gotten here, so I hope it never does! 


I hope you all are doing swell, always remember that Jesus loves all of you and is there for you!

Hey everyone, sorry it's been a little while since the last time I wrote. It's been a crazy few weeks.  So I'm here in my new area still São João Del-Rei, I've been assigned to this area for 3 weeks now, but only have been here physically for 2. The first week was super hectic, but the past two weeks have been amazing! Last week after finding a member that's been inactive for a little while, he led us to a few teens that have already been to church a few times! They are super super cool, they love the gospel and going to church! We had them on date to get baptized for this past Sunday, but sadly their mom doesn't feel like they're old enough to make the decision on their own, yet. So we're trying to help the whole family now see the truthfulness of the gospel!  Also, we found this other guy, he was a referral through other missionaries, we've met with him only a few times because his life is super busy. Last time we meet with him was Saturday, we pla...

Transferência De Novo!!

E aí cachorro, como vai. What's up everyone!!! this week has been pretyy wild, let me explain... Tuesday (dia de cavalo)- every Tuesday we get home late in the day because we have to travel 2 hours from where our district meets for district meeting, so it's never a full day of missionary work. However, this Tuesday we got home especially late, at 1:00 and had to wait until 3 to eat lunch, so when we were finally ready to work it was already almost 5, a lot later than usual!! So all we did was a ton of street contacts.  We wanted to get to know an area of our city that we haven't seen yet, so we went for a walk on the freeway (you read that right, the FREEWAY!), which surprisingly had a bunch of people walking on it. There we met this guy named João.  We started out talking to him about his life, and he seemed pretty cool.  We then asked if we could share a message with him, and his response was right now no, I lost my horse, I need to find him. We thought that was a ...
