Mmm
hmm. So today you get an email on Monday, because we had to come to
town to pick up our subsistence money for the month. Sorry for the
jumping around :P you never know when an email might come.
It feels like you guys get to see Emily and Tyson pretty
often. I guess you're rich because none of the kids are home now huh? :P
The baptism went alright, only a few members came to the baptism, but I felt like it was really good for Brother Kobbie.
Mm my health is alright with the normal missionary work, but if I go beyond that I get tired really quickly.
This
is a different Brother Emmanuel ( Like everyone is named Emmanuel
here), but he's still progressing well. He came to church this Sunday
and will be baptized in the next couple weeks.
We're also planning
for Brother Martin to either be baptized this week or next week.. He
showed up to church after sacrament and has been a bit hard to get time
with him to teach, but he has a job now so he'll stay in Odoben until
December at least and then will move to a place in Accra where the
church is.
Brother Robert came
to the baptism which was cool. He's been having a hard time believing in
Christ, but I feel like his faith is growing a bit. The baptism he was a
bit uneasy with because the members came late ( Ghanains are always
late. They get to work like 2 hours late haha). Then it was my fault
with the person who was baptizing. He was a recent convert and he didn't
know he had to say any words when he baptized someone.. So we had to
switch for someone else. But Brother Robert said he'll come to church
next week which is good news because he's never said he'd actually come
before.
We met with a Less
Active Recent Convert and had a really good lesson and helped her to
understand the importance of the restored gospel and she was planning to
come to church, but I guess then her mom had her come to her church.. I
really thought she was actually going to come.
I got to play the
piano while we were waiting for the baptismal font to fill up. It sure
felt nice. My companion fell asleep listening to me play.
On
Sunday we woke up to blasting music in our apartment compound. They
were having a baby blessing. They sure love blasting music in Ghana.
We met a new girl
named Sister Joyce, she was really excited for us to come and teach her.
She told us she would come to church, but then ended up not coming.
Hopefully in the future it will go somewhere though.
As an apartment our
water tank is getting lower and lower. We're starting to think we won't
even have any water to fetch even from our well. Soo we'll see what
adventure comes up in these coming months.
At the mission
conference I talked to Elder T Adair and we made a deal for his guitar.
Another missionary is going to have it one transfer after he leaves and
then I'll get it for the rest of my mission for 15 Cedi. Sounded good to
me. I can't believe he's leaving next transfer though along with Elder
Kitchen.
Elder Saili is going
home in a week now, I don't know if I already told you about him. He's
from Samoa. Along with Elder Kinikini and Elder Abioye who were the old
AP's. They gave powerful testimonies.
Well love you all Hope everything is Sweet at home
Elder Adair
