Transfers!!!

Hello everyone!

Today we received our transfers.  I will be moving to a new area called Paulista.  Sounds like the area is really big. That means a lot of walking, so I'm excited.  But it is in the city, so I am not super excited for that.  Just kidding, it will be great. I just want some nature to see. haha!  

And my new companion will be Elder Plentz. I am super excited!  He was in one of my districts when I was in Jordão.  And he is a great missionary.  He is from  Rio Grande Do Sul.  He will be a great comp, and we can be way productive. He has about 6 months in the mission, so I will be the senior comp there, but I am super excited.  We will be able to get some good work done together.

It should be fun trying to lug three big bags all the way to Paulista.  It is a little far from here.  I leave tomorrow morning.  So we will have a bar-b-que this week (it didn't end up happening last week) and tonight I will be up late packing my bags with Elder Barreto (who was transferred to the interior). 

Elder Phipps will stay here with Elder Graça.  I don't know too much about him, but it should be good.  The last two transfers were pretty good, but I still had issues to deal with that were difficult to understand and were outside my control. It was frustrating at times, but I feel I did my best. I will have to admit that it will be nice to have a change.  Elder Phipps is a good man, and he and Elder Graça should do well together here.

We don't have pictures this week, because we are in the really sketch lan house again, so we should have lots of photos next week.

I hope everyone has a great week!

P.S.  France won the World Cup, and so everything should calm down a bit.  But everyone thinks that we are from Belgium because they beat Brasil in the World Cup.

P.S.S. A couple of older pictures from Zone Conference. We got our birthday treats!
