Jaren Dawg in Brazil

  Another week down.  Hope everybodys chillin Let a brotha know what's new Biggest thing that happened in my week was another baptism This is Jennifer and she has the spirit as her constant companion now.  She pulled up to our ward solzhino last Sunday and watched the baptisms. Then we started talking to her, ended up teaching her everything this week and it worked out that she was able to get dunked yesterday My favorite part of this process tho was on Friday when we finished teaching her everything and I asked if she had any questions. Her only question was if girls could be missionaries too. When we told her yes theres sister missionaries, she asked if after her baptism she could become a missionary. I was blown away. After basically 1 week of knowing the truth, she already wants to go put everything to the side and serve the Lord. Mad inspirational and definitely had me wondering if maybe ive been taking things for granted a lil.  And that leads me to my spiritua...

 Hey squad 1st week of my second transfer was solid Let's get into it First off, some covenants were made this week. We spent most of the week preparing our friends Antonio and Lázaro for baptism. And yesterday they got dunked.  Antonio has spent 50 years of life pretty confused and lonely, so I'm so grateful I got to help him make this change, and bring a new light to his life. Also, this dude used to drink coffee twice a day but when we explained God's commandment The Word of Wisdom, that was all this brotha needed to hear. Hasn't drank coffee since Also yea i did get clowned by most of the ward cuz my whole fit was white and my skins white too especially compared to most of them so they had fun with that I love my ward And Lázaro's baptism was a family event because this family had been inactive for 4 years and now decided to come back. Lázaro's dad worked so hard to be worthy to be able to baptize his son, so to watch this family return and regain priesthood...

  What's good everybody I've been in Brazil now for almost a month. Thought maybe you guys wanted to hear from me.  My first email of the mission sorry it took so long. I spent 6 weeks in the MTC with a goated district tryna learn Portuguese and strengthening my testimony. And now I am in Aracaju, a beautiful city in the state of Sergipe, Brazil. It is the northeast region of Brazil and the people here have an accent that makes a hard language even harder to understand. But I am learning. Even in these past couple weeks I have seen improvement as I try every day to connect with the people here. I feel like everything I say is very simple and I do get laughed at a lot but progress is being made thru prayer, study, and work.  As far as Brazil this place is very different than what im used to and pretty entertaining. All the food I've had so far has been gas. My 3rd day here i watched a motorcycle crash into a lady walking right in front of us. That was wild. Walking the str...
