Akwaaba!!
Hey
everyone! Thank you for your emails... some of you haha. I just want to take
some small time to update you.
Two
days ago I received a phone call from the Assistants telling me where I will be
transferred. On this Wednesday, I will
be getting on a bus for 6 ½ hours and heading south to Kumasi to go to the
Mission Home. I will then wait there for my companion to take me to the new
area where I will then be with him only 1 transfer and then he will be going
home. My new companion’s name is Elder Noble and he is an Obroni (white boy). He is from South Africa and has already
served 16 out of his 17 transfers. So he is really old on mission but I am sure
we will have fun together!
I
am doing great. I have grown a great love for Tamale and Ghana and I hope that
when I move to Kumasi that I will learn Twi very quick and be able
to develop an even greater love for the people. I have seen the Lords
hand in this work and it is truly amazing. My testimony is growing each and
every day that I am out here and put this name badge on stating that I am a
missionary. The work is divine and I cannot express how much this work changes
lives. Not only the lives of those that I teach but also the lives of the
teacher aka me. One thing that my last companion used to say is "Yesterday
is history. Tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That is why they call
it the present." It is kind of cheesy, but also very true at the same
time. We have this gift of life and we should be using it wisely. Look at your
own life and ask yourself if it is what you imagined it to be... and if it is
not, then do something about it. Make it what you want while you can, but
remember that there is a God above who is taking notes of what you are doing
here. Just saying. haha
I
love each and every one of you guys very much and hope that you are doing
excellent. Stay strong and remember that the challenges that we face are never
forever. You have to decide how you will tackle them and how you will shape
your own future. God bless you and talk to you next week.
Love,
Elder
Cornelius III
