First Week, Last Companion

All is well here in Araçoiaba da Serra! Elder A. Souza is great! I'm loving it here. It'll be great to end my mission with him as my companion. He really has a desire to serve to the max. He doesn't content himself with being good, but truly tries to help everyone. I was already working well, but now this last transfer will really go out with a bang! We've been carefully focusing on who will progress more. As a mission, we are trying to find more elects. More people who can be baptized now! We found a member's niece who has gone to church for three years now, but was never baptized! We're getting her ready for this weekend. Hopefully all goes well! We have also been searching out others who have the desire to be baptized exactly like Jesus Christ was. We knock doors and try to talk with everyone. I'm very happy! Working like this is often tiring, but I never let my smile get wiped off my face! I've been discovering lots of other changes that have happened with me. I think about things differently. I've truly changed the way I see the world and everything in it. I'm loving the changes that living the Gospel to such a high level has brought me. I'm super grateful for the time I have to completely dedicate myself to God's work! It's the best! I'm also super happy that so many more of my friends are getting their own mission calls and are heading out. It's a great work! I'm happy and working hard. I love my Savior! Love y'all!
