Its transfer week again and I'm going to train a new missionary! Its exciting and stressful and everything all at once but its going to be great! I don't know who he is yet, just in the moment President will announce it, and he has to interview all the newbies first and its for this I don't know yet. As new year's is today everything was closed so the computer places and stores were closed so we don't have a lot of time to talk today, just this quick message. I will stay in Petrolina and my companion Elder Amorim will go to Salvador. The contracts for our new apartment will be arriving today too so will will hopefully be able to move houses this weekend. I didn't write anything last week because I spent my whole time talking with my family, so if you didn't like that, deal with it, because I liked it.
The Petrolina 2nd ward gave us 4 missionaries lots of goodies for christmas and we've been eating them all week. We even got raisins which you eat during christmas/newyears for luck in the next year, its like a tradition here. We had a christmas week district meeting over sushi thanks to dad for his christmas gift for us four as well! Overall it has been a good christmas/holidays/transfer and everything. On the night of the new year Elder Amorim and I brought cushions on the roof to watch some of the fireworks that went off at the turn of the year and afterwards we just slept up there and we watched the sunrise when the morning came and it was really quiet, I think everyone partied themselves out, it was nice.
So we are going to Salvador tonight, we are using the computer house in the bus station right now and our bus will leave soon, so got to go.
Bye!
