Well this week defintely went better then last week. I mean
the whole finding out about Micahel Jackson dying was pretty
rough but we got through it. A lot of people in Ghana were
pretty devestated that he died. It was pretty pathetic. It
rained everyday this week which made finding new people
a little difficult. It was pretty sweet though we were able to
get just under 30 lessons this week. Though it dumped buckets
on Sunday and several people couldn't or wouldn't leave their
homes cause of the rain.
The Ghanaian reaction to rain, or pretty much anything is
to "rest". Basically just fall asleep cause they have an excuse.
We had a sweet baptism on Saturday. Frank Asumah, a 9 yr
old boy(yep baptizing children) was baptized for our companionship
with six others. Frank is funny. We were teaching his grandparents
and he always would join and eventually told us he believed
Jesus would want him baptized, so we did. Now his little brother,
Tony, wants to be baptized. He turns 8 this month so that
will be cool. Today we went to the Accra Mall to look at cameras.
That was not really too terrific but man being there was. It felt
way out of place for Ghana. Elder Hortin and I bought a pizza
from their food court, yeah that's right FOOD court. Afterward
on the trotro ride home we both commented that it really upset
our stomachs, but that it was so worth it it. Little pieces of heaven
for sure. Last night Elder Hortin and I stayed up till like 1 am
talking about life, mission, and a lot about America since it will be
the 4th. It definitely makes you appreciate our freedoms and
privileges that we have as Americans. Well love everybody, peace out!
