How is everybody? I´m pretty sorry i havent been able to send more than one letter since ive been here and this is my email for the rest of my mission. They have put me to work over here and i think the soonest ill be able to send a letter off is next wednsday. It takes about 8 to 14 days to get a letter to and from here. I am having a great experiance over here. learning the languge, getting to know new friends, and learning to be a missionary 24/7 i love it. Learning a new language has streatched me to the limit, its pretty tough, i was pretty discouraged for a little bit because i thought i was falling behind a little bit but through words of incouragement by you, and by teachers here at the CTM i have been doing better. I have been working and studing very hard. One cool experiance that happened is that My instuctor irmáo Lindinburge, promised me and my district that if we put our faith in the lord and worked hard and did everything i was supposed to, that in 2 weeks we would be able to carry on a conversation with a brazilian easily. We all felt the sprit and truth of this promise, and it greatly comforted me because i have 2 brazilian roomates that do not speak any english. My companion Elder Jones is a really great preson. he is from pleasant grove utah, and was a perfoming missionary in Navoo for the last four months so i feel as if i have the best companion. He was actually companions with Jason West. well i have to get on going here, so ill make sure to email you next tuesday which is my p day. I love you all so much, and hope that you are all well.
Hey Mom! how are you doing? This is my p day so i want to make sure i email you everyone of them. The CTM is so great here . i love it so much. My wieght is pretty much the same, so you dont need to worry about that. And I have a really good companion. I´m going to tell you about this thing you sould check out that will be a lot cheaper and easier to send letters and packages. Just go to MissionTies.com and then look up Mr. CHeny´s cookies. they have some really good deals with letters and other stuff so if you interested, and think its alright but ill let you decide. I have to go mom, but i love you so much. Tell everyone i made it and that i love them.
Love Elder Rowland.
P.S Missionaries here are saying that not very many letters make it through here so if you dont get any letters some hobo probably took it.
