Transfers last week WOOHOO!!!! So I'm still here in my mission, Nova Parnamirim, with Elder Shawkey. BUT, mixing it up a little bit with a TRIO in our mission! Elder Vanace is our new companion! He is super cool and he's from São Paulo, East which is awesome because now we have a Brazilian with us! This week I've already spoken more Portuguese than I have my entire mission! Its awesome, I now realize just how much I've learned so far and how well I can speak the language! Its been a real confidence booster. This past week we had the opportunity to marry a couple of our investigators and I got to be a witness for it, which seems super cool, but really it was just paperwork stuff, so it wasn't all that awesome. BUT, now I am a CASADOR! ...or just a person that marries people...we don't really have a word for that I guess. Hopefully we will be able to baptize their daughter this upcoming week, which is super exciting! Also, the only way that we could have gotten all the marriage stuff done is with Elder Vanace because of all the technical Portuguese words that were used, which just testifies of the calling of our Mission President! I love being out here and I love all of you! Tchau! Have a great week!!!
