Hey you all!:) I loved your guys
last email it was great! Thank you mom and dad for the help with school and everything
I really appreciate it! Sister keale our office couple called me last week and
asked what airport I want to fly into? I told her Salt Lake so it's confirmed;
we will get our itinerary next month. I can't believe the time has come, it has
been a very hard long grind but overall I have grown so much since I have been
here. Truly a mission is a life changing event I am grateful I came!
Grandma and Grandpa sound great with all of the family.
This week has been such a great
week. I have been battling the flu I think but it only kept me down for one day
not three(dad) haha. Did I tell you I found monster energy drink chili I bought
two haha they were so dang good. Green and I had some surprises come to church
last week. We contacted a woman who is a New Jersey woman and she goes to
church in America and she showed up at church it was a surprise because we
contacted her in May and kind of thought she will go home very soon so we will
let the elders there teach her. She enjoyed church though, we also got a bunch
of other people who just decided to come to our church and they really enjoyed
it. People here really love the fact that we learn at church, they get tired of
listening to a false pastor preaching for 3 hours and going off in weird voices
(what they call gift of tongues). So they really love learning instead of being
yelled at. We are teaching a couple from Congo and they are progressing so well😄 they are such a great couple, the man is truly searching
and trying to find the real church, he is praying and doing very well. I went
on an exchange with elder Jake Jones. He came to Ghana with me and knew Jackson
Kunz from Utah valley he had a buddy play there also. Jones and I have been
good friends on mission despite serving in different areas but it was great to
go out with him. He is now our AP so he is a great missionary. We taught some
great lessons together. I was sitting in the one bedroom we were in and it was
light off and we were sweating trying to teach and I was like despite all these
circumstances I face here I am happy serving and teaching these people I love
it! We were in coordination this week and Green was saying the prayer so I
decided to fiddle his butt with a pen and Elder Thalelli couldn't hold his
laugh in and made a little kkkkkkkkkccccccc sound haha it made all us
missionaries laugh....o are ward mission leader didn't really know what was
going on but it was funny! The Gha people a tribe has a culture that for one
month there should be no music played or loud noise anywhere and that festival
just ended and now there is always loud and annoying music everywhere.
Literally when you go to a wedding or a party the music is so loud you can't
even talk to anyone it’s like this is giving me a headache, so for this last
month we have enjoyed peace😳!
Family all is well I want you to
know that I know Joseph Smith is a prophet. A man can never bring to pass all
the things Joseph Smith has done unless he is guided by God. If this church
isn't true I would love to see a man try to do everything Joseph has done, all
the good, the teachings, the Book of Mormon, no one can do it. The Church has
been restored; this is The Church of Jesus Christ! I am grateful to be in it!
We also need to understand the importance of taking the sacrament. This sacred
ordinance is a testimony to our Heavenly Father that we still remember the
sacrifice our Savior has done for us. If we are grateful for what Heavenly
Father has done in our life we need to show it by taking of the sacrament. I
love you all very much! I again am so proud of my family I truly feel I have
the best family.
I love you all!!
