Finished Week 2

Hello everyone!!! I finished week 2 as a missionary! So far my online MTC(missionary training center) experience has been going great. I love my district, everyone is so nice and my companion and I get along very well. The training has not been easy though haha. 7 plus hours on the computer a day can be exhausting, and Portuguese is hard! However I love feeling the spirit so strongly every day and I am really excited to be learning such a beautiful language! I can definitely see my progress so far, and I have 4 more weeks to keep learning. 

One thing I have been really enjoying so far is my personal scripture study every morning. I am able to focus and understand what I am reading way better than ever before. I am so grateful for that! 

I also should mention I received a temporary reassignment earlier this week to Mesa, Arizona! I am not sure how long I will be there before I can go to Brazil, but for sure while I am waiting for my visa. I am actually really excited to spend some time In Arizona! I really want to see those big cactus (THEY LOOK SO COOL)!

Anyway, I hope you all are having a good week! I am going to send out updates every other week, but feel free to reach out, I would love to hear from you!

Love,

Sister Ward
