Subject: 1st week in Brazil



Ola minha familia e amigos,
      I have made it one full official week in the Brazil MTC, and it has honestly been a blast but really busy. Our schedules are packed with language classes, personal study, and companion study as well. My companion is Elder Brock from Arizona. He is an awesome companion and is always happy no matter what the activity lol. So me and my companion room with these other two missionaries from utah and Arizona and they are so funny. Our first night in Brazil was one of our scariest nights and funniest. One of the other companions in our room was sleeping on the top bunk and somehow he fell off lol. It woke all of us up and literally was the funniest thing ever. When we woke up the next morning he thought it was all a dream haha. So I do not have much time to email this week due to some technical difficulties haha, but just know that God loves all his children. He has a plan for all of us and that is the plan of salvation. Pray to him constantly so you can feel his love every single day. Know that I love each and everyone of you guys and are praying for all of you always. Also I will not be able to send pics while in the MTC so big bummer haha. But anyways I love you all and will talk to you next week.

Tchau,
Elder Nawahine

A lot of stuff has happened these past couple of weeks. My papa (my dad's dad) has been in the ICU for a week now because he contracted covid and pneumonia and it's been attacking his lungs bad. He spent all last week on a ventalator but because of miracles and prayer he is off but still on an oxygen machine this is supllying him with sufficient levels of oxygen. He is still in the ICU but is still fighting this tough battle! This weekend was crazy because we had a huge ice storm that froze everything with a thick layer of ice everywhere! Even all the blades of grass were frozen! Due to the storm we lost power for a whole day and it was so cold inside. We spent most of the day inside of our car because that was our source of heat and power haha. Members were tell

My companion got really sick this past week because he ate a mango from a guy off the street. So we were stuck in the house for a couple days because my comp was throwing up, had bad bowel problems, and he had a fever. So he was sleeping a lot and it gave me a lot of free time. So I took this time to study the language, read preach my gospel and the book of mormon, and read a lot of other books and watch movies in portuguese. It was really really fun... nah it was kind of boring to be stuck in the house, but it was good to have more time to study the words of God. This week we had lunch with a member and it was his birthday so he had a huge bbq. We had a lot of meat and rice and beans and a bunch of juice. It was so good and I got the chance to cook some of the meat haha. That was the high
