6/4/18 - Leave it all out on the field!

Well the time has finally come, I'm entering into my last transfer as a missionary. I talked to President and he told me that I will end my mission as a trainer of a new missionary getting off the plane tomorrow from Italy. I am way excited to go back into the field my last transfer and have this opportunity to train again. I’m excited to be moving to a new area called Amadora, an area that has a lot of immigrants from Cape Verde and from Angola.  Also, I will have Elder Galland in the same house again. It will be a white wash because we are both new to the area so it will be fun starting from scratch. I'm just super super excited to return back to the field, to move on, and to face the next challenge!

This week was a good one, we did a lot of things to help President and Sister Tavares get ready to go home to Brazil in a couple of weeks. It's been a lot of work trying to prepare for combining the Porto and Lisbon missions to become one Portugal Mission.

Our investigator, Madalena, has decided that she will be baptized on the 19th of June. I'm super excited for her and so glad that I can make it to the baptism because my new area is close.

I had my last meeting with President Tavares planning for the mission as I’ve done every Sunday night over the past 8 and half months. At the end President Tavares thanked me for my work and it was really sweet. We had dinner with them and I just love them so much. They have really impacted my life, my perspective, and my thoughts about what I need to do with my life in the future. I am so grateful for the opportunity I've had and I will never forget them or the things they have taught me.

I don't have a lot of time to write but just want to say how grateful I am for the gospel and my mission. I don't even want to think about home so I'm just really trying to take it all in and enjoy it. I'm excited to “leave it all out on the field”!
