Hey, super sorry this is coming in super late.
We went to the blowhole yesterday and got back super late. We had an
appointment as soon as we got back, so we weren’t able to write yesterday. So
we are writing right now :) Sorry you were all probably super worried, but everything
is A okay :) enjoy the pictures from the blowhole!!
It was a super quick week. I can’t believe I am
writing again just like ya said Mom!
Our families that we are teaching are
progressing right along. We found another cool family last night that are
interested in the Gospel. We have visited with the children of the family and
they quickly became our friends...ha so when we showed up last night they
requested that we help them with their homework especially in English :) I don’t
want to jinx this family so I’ll get you names and pictures later :)
I caught a cold this past week and man its
kicked my butt. Being sick in the mission is the worst. Ha the sisters in the
ward could tell I had a cold and gave me all sorts of remedies of teas and herbal
stuff hahahah. I am doing a lot better though. The members take good care of
us!
Mom, I thought you like to see this picture of
the double rainbow. I saw this last Monday after we wrote - I couldn’t help but
think of Granny J and how she is watching over all of us :)
President Carreon
explained to us a couple of months ago that we as missionaries are safer than
what we would be in our houses. He also explained that the majority of the
cases where there are accidents with the missionaries is when they are doing
something they shouldn’t be and in an area where they shouldn’t be. Granted
accidents happen and I think that is the will of God, but we are 100 percent
safe here in the mission :) When I got set apart, President Schulte said that I
would be blessed with safety and health and be watched over.
Mom that’s cool you got to experience a Quinceanera.
We have been invited to many, but we can't go obviously ha. It’s a Catholic
thing here, but just about everybody has them.
I’ll get you some pictures of the food we eat
here daily. It took just an adjustment, but I love the food and tortillas at
every meal. Last week a family gave us chicken, potatoes and toast and I didn’t
know what to do without tortillas.
Sorry again this is short and it came late but
everything is okay :)
I’m looking forward to the birthday packages!!
If they don’t get here in time for my birthday, they will come in October in zone conference :)
I love and miss you all and hope you are all
doing well!
Have a good week!
Elder Roper
