Ola Minha Familia,


Tudo bem? Como vocês estão? Eu sinto saudade de vocês e eu oro para vocês todos os dias. This week was the beginning of a new transfer for me. I have a new companion who is a native and only speaks a little english which I like actually. His name is Elder G. Oliveira and he is the district leader and he is awesome. This week has been great and filled with a lot of contacts and a lot of miracles. We have talked to a lot of people this week and made a lot of novos and even marked some as well. One person we are teaching talks english really well and is really interested in the gospel and the missionary process. We marked him for the first of february and he said that if he received an answer that he would be baptized. We also had another miracle happen yesterday at church. We have been trying to find this guy that gave us his address and number, but we spent this whole week searching but couldn't find it. So we gave up on trying to find him and went to church. And to our surprise he came to church and I got to talk to him. He actually remembered my name and said that he passed his wrong address because he is new to the area. So now we have him and our other one who will be baptized hopefully before this end of the transfer... I am sorry but I am running out of time, but know that I love you all and am thinking of you all always. Try to find ways to serve and increase your faith in Christ this week. Eu amo vocês!! 


Com amor,

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
