In Angola- Bom dia todo do mundo!

President , Sister Pinto and me There's so much to tell, where to even begin. Elder Smith and I saw a lot of miracles our last week together, but now it's time to see miracles in Africa! The 2 days of travel went by really quickly because I got to meet my grandparents for a few hours in the San Francisco airport and I got to travel to Angola with 5 other missionaries, so that was really fun. We had some German food at the airport in Frankfurt, German food is goood, but now I get to eat African food.  Key to our front door When we arrived, we got to eat lunch with President and Sister Pinto at a really nice restaurant. I ate a chicken heart for the first time, those things are weird. Overall, the food was pretty awesome though. My companion’s name is Elder Lima. He's from Brazil and doesn't speak much English, so I need to learn Portuguese really fast. Our apartment is super nice, nicer than the apartment I was in the US actually. We have a lot of space and ...

Pueblo!!

  Sorry for the delay in sending out Fletcher’s email. Goat in the kitchen Oi gente! Sorry it's been so long, I need to get back in the habit of writing these every week, I don't have a lot of them left.  I was sad to leave the valley, but Pueblo has been awesome. My new companion is Elder Egbert, and surprise surprise, he's also from Saint George Utah! That's now 3 out of my last 4 companions that have been from there. I keep managing to be companions with all the tall Elders in the mission, but it makes basketball more fun, even if I'll still be the short one.  There's lots to do in Pueblo! There are so many wonderful people here, also a bunch of interesting people, but that just makes it even more fun to talk to the people of Pueblo. We're teaching a few awesome people. Sam if one of them, I was able to help him set a date for baptism when I first got here, and he's very committed to preparing himself to be baptized. Hearing the heartfelt prayers from...

General Conference!

Oi! This week was definitely an interesting one. No more snow thankfully, but Elder Smith and I made sure to put on multiple layers when we need them. Since Elder Smith is a district leader, we get the opportunity to go on exchanges with the other Elders, where we swap companions for a day and go into another area. I've had to really focus on having continual excitement for my area and to do the work there, because every time this week when I was in another area we saw lots and lots of miracles. Everyone certainly has their agency to listen to us or not, but I still need to do everything I can to give them that opportunity to investigate the Book of Mormon and the gospel for themselves.  One exchange I went on was super cool. I went with Elder Abbott into his area for the day, and we talked to some amazing people. The first person we talked to had us so excited, he seemed so prepared to hear the gospel after all he had been through. After talking with him for a while, he...
