By the way, in the Prescott Valley ward there should be a couple by the name of Linda and Jim Cox, and every month since November they've been sending my letters from AZ. Will you please tell thank you? It may be a while before I can write them...I'm currently owing some 6 or 7 letters...
Training Elder Roper has been going along pretty smoothly, and this week has been verrrrry different from the rest of the mission, with adjusting the way we work here. Fortunately for me, Portuguese isn't an obstacle anymore, I'm pretty comfortable with the language now (praises and blessins). Generally speaking, the only time I have trouble with the language is when I try to tell jokes (which is a highly refined art, tough in another language), make a improv rap, or cuss someone out. I don't have a lot of practice in those areas generally, because I have to focus on scriptures and preaching and being kind and all that jazz. It's generally only in places like prisons and oil rigs where I feel out of place, where at any moment someone could challenge me to a rap battle or start a diss fight, or have to tell someone to get out of my space like, "Hey, you blubbering whisker ball, get your flubbery form out of my face, you lousy limp noodle!" My only weak points.
Elder Roper is getting there too, step by step. :)
But I gotta head to lunch. Hope you like this week's nerd photos :) More to come soon! Also got another Brasilian First! My first kiss from a parrot!
LOVE YOU MORE THAN FAT CHILDREN LOVE CAKE!

Also forgot to mention that I slid in a photo of our district, us and the sisters!
