Hello family! It was wonderful to hear from you all today,
we are on the computer a little bit early today at 3:30 a.m. your time, we are
just doing our internet with emails today and shopping and having a half day
P-day because we are going over to the Mission Presidents house on
Thanksgiving. The riots have been affecting our work so this past Saturday again
the entire mission was indoors and we were not allowed to leave the house,
about something that happened at the jail with 2 citizens being killed and so
the people are very mad and protesting .
So the whole mission in Luanda was not allowed to leave. I really want all of the Elders that are
waiting in Texas to get their Visas and make it over here…we need more Elders!
Elder Dredge and I are still taking care of 2 areas, the biggest areas in the
mission, crazy we need them, we are however receiving 5 Mozambicanos from
Mozambique the 11th of December which will be awesome! Their visas have already been approved!
So the plans for this Thursday are that we will all be going
over to the Presidents house to have AMTB the Angola Mission Turkey Bowl! We
are going to play soccer and we all be divided into teams and then we are going
to feast on a big dinner…I am so stoked!

I will get to see all of you on skype for Christmas and that
will be the best Christmas ever for me!
It is getting pretty hot over here as we are approaching the
summer and its getting really hot!

So this week it was great to see so many of our
investigators progress, it has been a time of reaping the rewards of finding
here in Viana and it has been amazing.
We were able to visit some of our recent converts Lala and also less
actives. We had a wonderful lesson with Cilestina and Suzana and Avo Rosalina
and we talked about the Plan of Salvation. I was on a division with the Zone
Leader Elder Pimentel, he is a Brazilian and a Stalwart, amazing
missionary. We are so stoked because Avo
Rosalina will be baptized this next month!

We weren’t able to keep some of our appointments because of the riots, such a bummer, we are hoping this does not continue because this is the second time.Yesterday we had lunch at the Presidents house and I ate rat
for the first time, President asked us if we wanted to try rato (rat) I said
yes of course…haha.. anyways so he literally brought out a bucket full of dead
rats, still in their original form, and some with hairs still on it, I picked it
up in my hand and took a bite out it, it tasted like beef jerky, that taste stayed in my mouth..it was cool! That was the week, the ward is doing great…the work
continues to grow and Angola is receiving the blessings especially here in Viana, I love you all, Elder Dunkley(:
