This week has gone by super fast for me as well. Things are going good here as well and we are keeping pretty busy. Ya we had one person baptized this baptism. And now her sister wants to be taught too and she wants to get baptized. Our area is doing really good and we have alot or really good people. I just hope we can keep on teaching them every week with all the other stuff we have to do. We got a list from president a few days ago with a list of missionaries he wants to send to Angola here in a few months so we are super busy getting visas and stuff done for them so we can get them off. But dont worry about missing out on stuff, i'm writing it down so you can hear all about it later. I'd like to write more but I just dont have time. But hey you'll get to hear a ton of stories when i get back!Also I found some books for a dialect here called Ronga so I've started learning that a little bit. One of our guards speaks it so i'm going to go and sit with him and try and learn it. I have a whole year to learn it so I think I should get it down. I'm really excited to start learning it more. Its a super weird language and it sounds kinda funny but i'm excited to learn it. Also this week we had a rat problem in our appartment, it was pretty fun trying to kill them though. All 6 of us were running all around the house with broom sticks trying to kill them. Other than that the week was pretty uneventful, just doing office work.
Maputo is cool, its like a big city with lots to see and do, nothing too crazy happens like stuff did in the jungle but we see every part of the city because we are always driving all over it. It's way cool being so far away and stuff. I mean, I'm in Africa for cying out loud!!! It's awesome!!! But I still miss home, and also I miss being a normal person ya know? It's weird but all missionaries feel the same that I've talked to. No matter how hard you work and how focused you are you still miss home every day there isn't a whole lot you can do about it. I really like the mission but I do miss home. Anyways I better go but I will talk to you later. Thanks, Love you!
