February 13, 2017

So another week has flown by!!
We started the week of with transfers last Tuesday. Transfer day is always really tiring because you spend the whole day running around the subway stations helping everyone get to where they need to be, Especially sisters we have to help a lot because of all the luggage. So I spent all day running around São Paulo East trying to get everyone in their places. Especially now that I am a zone leader who is getting old in the mission, everyone was calling me asking where they need to go and how to get there and if I could help. I must have received 50 phone calls that day. I think I know how to get around São Paulo better than the people who live here.

Then on Wednesday we worked hard trying to get our teaching pool up and running. We met a man named Renato. His mom is inactive, but he is willing to learn. So we taught him "the Gospel of Jesus Christ" put the smack down and marked the baptism. We gave him a goal for march 5th. 
We also set a date with Diana to go to the temple and do baptisms for some of her family. We have a few other people in potential, but most of this week we spent planning and having meetings trying to get a vision of what we want to happen in the next few months.

On Friday we had a leadership meeting at the mission office. So we spent all day there getting trained by President and other leaders. It was a blast as always. We got to see some mission buddies and it is always good to get a training from Pres. He really is the man. He is so dang spiritual it is amazing! It was really awesome. 

My zone has 6 new missionaries!!!! That is a lot! So my comp. and I are really praying and trying real hard to help them out. We are trying to get them excited to baptize, as that is our purpose. All is well and we continue working hard! Time is flying by so fast! Keep up the good work and never forget the words of the prophet: After all that has been said, the greatest and most important duty is to preach the Gospel.

Have a great week!
