Riohacha








 HEY I figured after a few months I'd better throw in an update:

So I'm in a new area again- it's called Riohacha- its a super cool area because it's right on the border of Colombia and Venezuela
My companion is a dope Brazilian named ELDER C he's a really funny guy
Here in Riohacha there's a lot of indigenous people and they speak a language called Waünakee. I'm trying learn it but there's not like any books on it so it's a slower process than I would like👍
It's a smaller branch but the members are AWESOME so the work is much smoother.
They eat a lot more lamb/goat (chivo) here and it literally tastes like beef jerky so I can't complain
This last month of March has been really good for our mission as well, we had 147 baptisms which apparently is the most in the last like 15 years so that's a fun fact.
I want to share my testimony of the Savior:
I know Jesus Christ is the Son of the God and his mercy extends to all people. I know that our efforts will be magnified by Him as we have a faith in Him. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is simple enough for a small child to understand but the most educated and intelligent minds can have difficulty applying it. As we become as small children, we can access God's power in our lives. Covenants make our relationship with Heavenly Father stronger, I love this Gospel and love spreading it. In the name of Jesus Christ, Amén.
