Well tomorrow is the transfer and I'm leaving Irajá!!!! I will sincerely miss it here but I'm going to another area SUPER CLOSE! Its a different Stake but its really close so I know that some of the members here will come visit me haha. There are leaders in the mission. And there are 15 stakes in our mission. Each Stake has 5 or more companships of missionaries. One of these companships are the Zone Leaders and then the Senior companions of 2 other groups are District Leaders. I was the District Leader in Irajá for about 4 months. Now I will be going to my new area which is in the city of Madureira. My area will be Sulacap. Madureira is pronounced Mah-doo-ray-ruh. Irajá is pronounced Ear-uh-jah. I hope that helps a little bit haha. I'm a little sad about the transfer but I'm also SUPER excited! I've been here for almost 11 months. .......   I have a lot of friends that will be going to the other mission because our mission is gonna split. Its kinda sad and I'll miss them but I'm glad to be staying in Rio. Sincerely, I'm doing really good. We had a week or two that were kinda tough because we didnt have many investigators to teach but this week we visited TONS of people and we also had a baptism for this 12 year girl named Natália which would be Natalie in english. We helped reactivate her mom after being inactive for more than 15 years. I love so many people in this ward ....
