5 Months

Hey Mom and Dad
Good to hear how things are going once again. Mom, sorry I haven't been able to send you as many pictures and stuff as you want. I really would but I don't want my pictures to get deleted. I will try to send some from a members house. You also need to send me a letter so I can give you stories in them and include questions so I know what you want to hear haha.
The main update for this week is that I found out this morning that my companion will be going on an emergency transfer to Haumbo. We don't know why yet but something happened down there and one of the Elders is coming up here and Elder Castleton will be going down there. I will now be in another threesome in a different area. I will be serving with Elder Kafferty and Kearney. Kafferty is from St. George and Kearney is from Centerville. They both seem pretty cool so I am excited. I really don't think I could have lasted with Elder Castleton so I was kinda really happy. We were only together for a few days and it was really really tough. I am glad a change happened. I hope in this area I will be able to stay for a while to be able to get to know people and see more the progression in the people we teach.
To answer a few of your questions too I never really am hungry. The food isn't the greatest here but I don't mind it. I pretty much eat rice and beans every meal. I think I already told you about the funge stuff they have. It's a favorite here in Angola. I still  haven't gotten your package yet. I am doing really well here and don't need anything. I still have plenty of money that you and grandma sent me in the mtc so I will be fine with that for a while. I don't have anyone I am teaching right now because I am in the middle of changing areas again but I will tell you next week.
Definitely let me know when Connor gets his call and Nate. Have you gone to any of my friends farewells? How were they? Thats so funny that Dubach got fired haha. FINALLY: Have a good week and I can't wait to talk to you again next week. Love you
Eric
