So another week in the books here in Ghana. Had a pretty interesting week. Had its ups and downs like all the others. In fact I'm probably going to write you a shorter email. This week it seemed like everyone we taught wanted us to pray for them. Which wow like we don't have that on our minds anyway. Though while we were teaching this week it seemed like a rather unusually large number of drunks kept wanting to learn "the word" with us. My favorite was a man named Joseph who sat through a whole lesson and even participated small (small because he was drunk) so that at the end he could beg us for money. We had a another drunk guy come up and talk about how his brother is a missionary. Except the name he gave isn't the missionaries who are in that area. He also asked us for money. We are teaching an actor named Stefan Godwins. He is reading the Book of Mormon and got to 2 Nephi and started asking about the millennium and everything that goes along with that. It was really really sweet to get to teach him but he is always super busy. Luckily he doesn't have to work on Sundays. Another mane named Romeo did something that really touched me. He is really committed to the church but even still when we extended a baptismal date to him he said he wanted to wait so that he could get his confidence up because he wants to make sure he understands how serious it is.

Not saying I want everyone to postpone but it is good to see people actually taking all of it completely serious. Saturday we had a baptism and the AP's came to go on splits with us for about 2 hours. It was pretty interesting. Especially since almost all of our appointment fell through the short time they were with us. Comfort Bruce was interviewed to be baptized. It was really sweet because afterward I was talking to the missionary who did it and he said she told him that as she met the missionaries she felt like making changes in her life were just how it should go. Stopping drinking and just other things like that. Just confirmed the feelings of the spirit that has been present in our lessons with her I guess. That is about all of our excitement this week. Love you guys! Hope everyone is doing fine
