12-15-08 Letter

Thank you for the letter. I really enjoyed reading 

it. I got out of the MTC finally. My first area is called

Christianborgs. My area has the temple in it and the

mission home. Which just so happens to be where I'm

staying since they canceled our apartment this

transfer. My companion is an Elder Adams who is from

Ghana. He is like 27 and seems like a really cool guy.

He leaves in April. We work a lot. I probably won't

make it out of the city area since they aren't really

sending too many elders to the bush. I have a bike.

It is pretty insane riding through the city and crusing
by traffic. The food is lots and lots of rice. It is

really spicy too. They have some stuff called banku

that is like milled corn we use to feed the pigs rolled

up and cooked about half way done. It tastes like they

should feed it to pigs too. It sounds like everything

is going good. Thanksgiving sounded really great from

your letter. I bet having only shelly chet and laney

there was pretty chill. If you are going to send me any

packages preferably use fedex and DON'T write how much

the stuff inside costs on the outside. I can't leave

too long of a message since my time on the computer

is a little limited today but I hope everything is going
great. Good luck with everything. Since I am at the

mission home I'll be able to email next week for sure.

Ask questions . . . it'll help me next week since I'll

have more time too!



Love

Elder Gibson
