Dear Mother,
Well sounds like a good week.
Monday- Met this man named Antwi I
thought he wasn't very interested but he was pretty cool. Nothing too exciting.
Tuesday- Had coordination and that
was good. We have a good relationship with the ward which is really nice. I
love our bishop he is a taxi driver.
Wednesday- I am not sure if I talked
about this last week but we found a man named Joel and he was baptized in 1989
in Ivory Coast and it has been a long time since he has been to church. We were
able to get him a French Book of Mormon and hopefully we can get him back to
church. He is pretty cool. We also met a man named George and we taught him
about the Book of Mormon. He is very educated and seemed interested. Its
sometimes nice working with educated people and hopefully he progresses.
Thursday- The zone and district
leaders had a meeting in Accra at the temple site so we had to wake up early to
go. We got there by 7 30 and we had a nice meeting. We talked about a lot of
things and I enjoyed it. It was also Halloween and we ate some candy ha.
Friday-we had an interesting lesson
with two men. We were contacting some houses and I thought we should go down
this one path way and then we walked into this compound and there were two men
sitting down and we were able to sit down and that is when the fun began. Both
of them were anti to the church and they started asking all kind of questions. They
could not accept the Book of Mormon and did not think it was scripture. One of
the men boldly declared that the Book of Mormon was not scripture and that he
would never accept it. It was kind of frustrating and sad that they were so
hard in their hearts that they wouldn't even read. But my testimony was strengthened
as me and my companion were able to share our testimonies with them that we
know the Book of Mormon to be true. it was a crazy lesson and I hope that
someday they will read and pray about the Book of Mormon.
Saturday- Meet a great guy named
Larry. Very educated and we told him about Conference and we showed him on his
computer and he seems so cool.
Sunday- We watched conference and
that was great. We also had a surprise fufu fm and that was nice.
Well I think that is it for the
week. We are going to the temple tomorrow and that will be great. Things are
good. I am continuing to learn from my companion and I am grateful for my
testimony and the knowledge that I have. Well love you have a nice week
Love Elder
