Ghana was pretty sweet for us this past week. Best part was that we had Zone Conf. That is always pretty fun. Uh yeah it is amazing to look at everyone that comes and think I'll be come home before you, you, you, you, you and yes President Smith even you. What was a way big downer was that since I think everyone in Ghana has at least thought of abortion as an option we had some abortion interviews to be done by President Smith. President Smith told us that one of them didn't pass. He still thinks God won't forgive him. That is really hard to try and teach someone to understand. He literally has done everything that is required, but personally I just feel like he is too grief stricken to really feel how the Atonement is suppose to lift us up through repenting. Good thing conversion doesn't happen in a day. We'll keep working with him. Something we tried working on this week was being more bold in being us. It went pretty good to a point and then it almost got to be as if we are pouring on way too much for them.

This week I got to eat at what are some of my favorite members the Sackey family. Awesome food. Mama Sackey made melon soup with omu tuo. I know get this I actually enjoyed eating squash soup with sticky rice balls. Awesome. I even got to help the other missionaries eat theirs. Still serving as the garbage can. We had lots of people of course ask this week if we worship Joseph Smith. It was great to be able to explain how we just more look at him as a role model. That is something here that people have a hard time connecting with. With all of the bozillion churches, literally I can find at least three on any given street and that is a low number, people look at their pastors and things sometimes as demigods. Glad we don't have that in our church. They are really just men who follow God with all their heart mind and strength.

We had a baptism this Saturday, of course it went really good thankfully. Even were able to invite a few others who are investigating the church to come and witness it. Saturday we had a sweet something had to happen experience. Joseph Kyei asked if there was a video or something about Joseph Smith he could watch. We borrowed one from another missionary and took it over. We were lucky enough to have his dad Joseph Kyei Sr. just being around and got to see it. My companion and offended him when after contacting him he went on splits and during that appointment said and did somethings that Daddy Kyei didn't agree with. After the video about Joseph Smith daddy kyei wanted to watch and know more. Hopefully that door hasn't been completely closed and we can work on getting all of Joseph's family into the church. Joseph would be ecstatic too. We'll just have to keep working hard and see what happens. Last night after reporting our numbers to the zone leaders it was great to have them call and just tell us they got the numbers and that they don't need to discuss anything again because our district is the strongest one in our entire zone. I might of been a little prideful but hey we work hard so I think we deserve it.

Some funny experiences this week. Two ladies were making comments about the white missionaries on a trotro in twi about which one they'd rather sleep with. No one else understands really any twi besides me. As they were talking I just told them, in English, that we don't sleep with people and handed them a pamphlet as we got off the trotro. The look on their faces priceless. Also Wednesday is transfers. They don't call till the night before because if they call earlier missionaries stop working. My companion has completely packed his bags and literally is just waiting to go. Haha it is great to watch. He did it the last time too. I think that is about it. Yeah I think that is about it. It seems like my time in Ghana is slipping away so quickly. Love all you guys!
