So this was my first week as a District Leader. So we had transfers and I prepared my first district meeting on Monday. So here we have district meetings every week except when there is a zone conference. On Tuesday I had my first district meeting. On Wednesday I went to the mission office to have a District Leader meeting. Then on Friday I talked with the Elders about their week, and problems (acompanhamento in Portuguese, I don´t know how it is in English), and then on Sunday I got everyone´s numbers to pass to the Zone Leader. That sums up my week as a District Leader. I have 10 Elders in my district: Elder Ashworth (an American in his last transfer, but he is still working so that is good. He is from Utah. Also he is a ZL), Elder Sousa (My ex-companion. He is also a ZL), Elder Souza (junior companion, and the missionary with the most time in the district. I think it is his fifth transfer in his area. He is from São Paulo), Elder Pinkney (American became the senior companion this transfer. He plays the piano. I think he is from Utah), Elder Woolley (American, senior companion. He is from Utah), Elder Neres (junior companion, and I think he is from São Paulo), Elder Azevêdo (trainer, he is on his fourth transfer. He is from North west Brazil Ciará), and Elder Silva (Trainee, 2nd transfer. He is from Rio grande do Norte- North Brazil). Also Elder Morais and I. That is my District.
So far, it has been good. Everything is going great, and I am learning a lot. I still don´t know a lot about what I am doing, but I think the Lord is helping a lot. Also I got my birthday package! I think the mail strike is over now, so that is why is went so fast. Thank you for the cake mix. I will make the jello cake, and bring it to a district meeting.
I don´t have anymore time.
Thank you all and Tchau!
