What's good everybody!! Im alive! This blessed Friday marks my last p day in the mtc, the coming Monday I'm out to Juiz de fora,  I'm sooo hyped.








Soo yea I did the mtc, it twas quite chill, I learned soooo much.... I made a ton of great friends, laughed a ton, and I even learned a bit about the good word of of the gospel too hahah. I have also been studying the much more difficult words of Portuguese... it's coming along!! (I think) 

    My days here consist of class, class, rice and beans, more rice and beans, studying, general shenanigans with my district, and devotionals that occasionally inspired me to close my eyes (not sleep, just deep pondering).... 

      Some of the  highlights of my week is when my district hits the showers and does a choir practice, we have received many compliments throughout the ctm on our angelic singing voices. Also I have taken up the yoyo courtesy of elder Cook (I'm quite good). Also, my district gets to go out to the prison yard here and get schooled in volleyball every night... it was actually way fun.







     
       I'm having my self a good time out here! The ctm was freaking awesome and hard! There are so many awesome people here.... My testimoney has grown a TON and I have had the amazing opportunity to grow closer to my savior. I can't wait to go meet the people of Juiz De Fora!!! 

   I can certifiably say that the Mish is quite lit so far.... also I love you guys!! Hope you are all well please hit my email if there is anything I can do for you...

What's up everybodyyy! Another good week here in brazilll. I'll be quick.    This week was super good we got to do some more Christmas stuff which was fun. A member in our ward has a band so this week, a bunch of the missionaries in our district and the district next to ours sung some Christmas songs to open a show they were playing. We definitely sounded pretty rough but it was fun! Spirit was strong! This week I also played my first hymn on the guitar for an investigator hahaha... it was good! Played silent night and Elder pike sung for us.     Other than that some highlights from this week were: I saw Santa driving down the street, cooked some popcorn, had some good juice, ate some good rice and beans, hung out w a bird, oh and I saw a toucan it was crazy.     Much love for you all hope you are doing well! Let me know how it's going!  Elder Burton

What's good everybody!  Merry Christmas! Christmas here was good! Was a little bit different but awesome.    This week I went on a long exchange to a  town called Leopoldina. I hung out with my boy Elder Budge all week he is awesome he is from San Clemente. We tried a different burger stand every night so that was fun hahaha. We also got super lost one day and walked throug h this dudes pig farm in the forest. Was kinda scary not gonna lie.    We spent Christmas with a Venezuelan family in our ward! It was awesome we had a venezuelan feast which was delicous. Honestly I don't have any idea what I ate but it was yellow and it tasted good! The members here have been super nice to us this Christmas so we spent a lot of time in people's houses and eating food. It's been a grandão blessing. Also we are at a churrascaria right now for Christmas and it is awesome.    Christmas was a little a lot warmer here but was a great time to remember the birth of J...
