Hey Everyone!
This week was my third week in Kumasi and I
am just loving it. The people are really great and most of them speak great
English. This week went by super quick and we had a lot of success as a
companionship. At church we had 4 of our investigators come and they even
conducted the entire sacrament meeting in English. It seems like usually they
conduct everything in Twi so you can imagine that it gets pretty tough for us
missionaries since we cannot speak the language. Oh and to mention that the
missionaries have been teaching these 4 investigators for over a year and have
not been to church in over 6 months or so, now to see them come to church and
meet the members and make friends there, I think it is pretty cool.
My companion is trying to stay more focused
on the work because his mind can get focused on going home in 2 weeks. I don't
blame him though. It is good that he still cares for these people and wants to
see them baptized.
I
love you all very much and continue to thank those who email me. I am about to
go and enjoy my p-day and celebrate a very special day for myself!!! Maybe not
an American Ice-cream cake or any candles but I can celebrate with some sweet fufu
or a little enjoyment by going to a fine Ghanaian restaurant ahaha. Well I hope
that everyone back in the USA or those who are serving the Lord around the
world are doing great and they are enjoying life. To those missionaries
receiving this message.... stay strong and continue to ponder your purpose and
then strive to fulfill it. The prophet said one cool quote that can apply to us
all and it goes like this....
"Get
on your knees and pray then get on your feet and work!"
If we give it our all in life, we can expect
Heavenly Father to give his all as well and help us when we are in need.
Love
ya guys and talk to you next week.
