Wow that was an amazing story about the airplane, I saw that on a tv while I was in a restaurant eating. YES THEY HAVE FOOD HERE!!!!! The city is way cool, they have alot of really good food and it doesn't feel like Africa but at the same time it still doesn't feel like the US. I really like the city though. Everything in the office is going good and we are starthing to get caught up a little bit but we still have alot of stuff to do. I really like the office. There's a senior couple here and the husband doesn't speak portuguese so I've been designated his "co-pilot" as he calls it to go with him when he needs a translator. We've been fighting with the department of immigration since I got here because they have 5 of our passports and have been holding on to them for 6 months. He comes but doesn't help much because he can't speak the language and it doesn't make sense to translate when I'm just arguing with them. So we got up to the director of the department. Apparently everyone thought we were from the 7th day Adventist church. They don't like them because they fired all the Mozambicans and brought in foreign ministers. So that's why they wouldn't process our passports. But I told him that we were from a different church and explained it all to him. The senior guy pointed out that we had a stamp from the department of religion (who won't stamp the papers for the 7th day) So we got the passports back.
I really like the work I do, it feels like the work I do isn't wasted. Some times while I was teaching it felt like the people I was teaching weren't progressing so it just felt like a waste of time some times. But here all the work I do counts for something so I really like it. Also I get to drive in the city which is fun! People drive crazy here so I fit right in! Oh about the question, we have 3 elders in the office so on paper yes I'm still a Jr but there isn't really a senior here just someone who has been here longer.
We taught 2 lessons this week. (more than average for us) and they were pretty good. They are 2 sisters, they are very smart and understand the bible really well. But at the same time they are open to new things so its really nice. Also THEY SPEAK PORTUGUESE!!! Maputo is great! Everyone speaks Portuguese really well! Anyways, they have alot of questions so we can only teach one principle at a time but I really like teaching them. Have fun in the snow while I'm stuck here in the blazing hot sun walking in ankle deep water and sweating like a fatty! I'm just kidding. Thanks! love you!

Questions this week:
1. What's happening with your feet?
Well I was looking at them this morning acrually and they are healing up fine. Some how the worms died and now its going away. both feet are almost completely better.
2. What restaurants do you eat at? What was the first American restaurant you went to?
Well they still don't have American places here. They have a KFC but its not the same. We went there and to a place called Steers.
3. Are you not going to get p-days anymore or is it just because you're busy and trying to get caught up?
well we kinda get half pdays, we write, shop, eat and then have a little time but we usually do work throughout the day when needed.
4. Do you do missionary work in the evenings? What do you do? Are you teaching people right now?
Most days no just office work but we get out and teach when we can.
Thanks fam!!!! Love Brady
