March 20, 2017 HALFWAY!

I got transferred about 2 weeks ago to a new area called PONTA GROSSA! I didn't expect to get transferred because I was in my first area for 6 months and in the second area for just 6 weeks! My companion, Sister Hulme, and I were transferred together to our new area Ala 2! 

 On the last day in Pinhais Centro we visited as many investigators as we could! 

  Jose's dog that loved me so much!

 Ponta Grossa!!!

 

I love Ponta Grossa! This area is so pretty and the people here are amazing! I wore a cardigan yesterday so I think it will start cooling down soon! 

These past 10 days have been crazy! Since my companion and I are both new to the area we are a little lost with what to do and where to go, but it is already getting a lot better! The first week we didn't have a map, so we got lost a few times. The ward is so great and the people are so willing to help us here. 

Ponta Grossa is known for all of its hills, so the walking here is going to be a bit tougher but it's worth it because the people here are so great!  

We don't know very many people yet, but we did meet a family of recent converts that are so humble and so excited about the gospel. We have a baptism planned for one of the kids who wasn't baptized yet. They are a family of 8 in total which is rare in Brazil. 

I hope you all have a great week!
