Tyler Mission News

What's up everybody!!! I am still alive and I made it to the field! This week has been full of a ton of new and it was awesome......      So Tuesday I got here and met my comp and mission presidents... I am so lucky to have awesome mission presidents and a bomb trainer. My dawg Elder muchocho is training me right, he is from Mozambique and doesn't speak to much English so I am learning a ton, sometimes it takes a few minutes for us to understand each other's simple questions but we get the job done hahaha....
