Hey guys!

I've hit my first week as a missionary. thinking about whats next is super intimidating. I finally leave to go to the CTM tomorrow!! I'm excited for that because home MTC wasnt exactly my favorite. I've had strep throat all week and waking up at 5 am for my first class was definitely a struggle. Im still not sure how im going to structure these emails. you can probably tell this one is a little janky. However!! The best part about the home MTC was that I got to meet my companions. Im currently in a trio, with Elder Pacheco (hes 19) and Elder Ferreira (hes 23), and I could not have asked for better companions as my firsts. They BOTH like One Piece (ball) and they BOTH like FNAF, and they both like so many other things that I DO TOO. I don't think I could have had two more relatable companions. It's going to be so helpful to have these two by my side, when i'm still trying to get used to the environment. I also got to learn a bit about how to preach to other people while i'm on the mission. that's actually been really good to know about. sometimes when i'm explaining things, i get a little off track and i add bits of information that don't matter and hurt my case rather than help it. But I can't wait to improve during my time at the CTM.

Cya guys next week!
