I'm dreaming of a dead bat!

So great news.... it seems that the bat infested tree above our house has caught some kind of disease and every once and a while a bat or two will just fall out and die. Its been pretty interesting.

This week we had a cool baptism of Tomas, Andre and Nelinho. Three very excited men that should help this Nacala group a ton.

 I felt inspired (by my mother) to list some of the things I love about Nacala

-Its extremely pretty and it takes your breath away
-The people are so great at participating in activities and love learning English
-The guys that I am here with are literally the best and that is a blessing
-The opportunity to be a part of Nacala's growth has been a once in a mission opportunity that I am cherishing.
-The bats are pretty cool
-The grocery store only has cereal....and sardines. So I literally eat cereal and sardines (there exists more there to the talented in cooking, but seeming that I am impaired in that area of knowledge I eat cereal)
-I work on the side of a mountain. Its super pretty and incredibly great to return home every day drenched in sweat. (my shirts have been looking great these days)
-People think that we are pilots and I am Messi..... so that's pretty cool i guess
-On Mondays we eat at this place that has pizza, its pretty good
-Baptisms are pretty darn cool I do have to say
-The mission is just flying here. I feel like I got here yesterday.

So, just some of the things I love. Not much more I have the desire to say today besides that I love y'all and the restored gospel that brings me so much peace and understanding.
