The miracle for the week was the fact that I received all the confirmations from the lord that i need to love my companion and serve him.
The difficult experience was a teaching we had this week where my comp got pretty upset with me but i just let it pass and didn’t fight him back and he eventually just stopped and chilled out
An experience that was easy and fun was our teaching we had yesterday we committed the fake investigator to finally start reading the Book of Mormon, pray, and come to church!
An act of service would be almost everyday i try to serve my comp and other elders as much as possible!!
This week has been so much better! I listened to what you said about serving and loving and i have seen a change! The lord is so great! Yeah it will be but the lord will give me strenghth!! Yeah its so true like even though were teaching fake people the power of it is so real it is amazing! Yeah dont worry i count them everyday man! We have so much to be greatful for in the states! They pamper us a lot in the mtc i feel like but i know the field is gonna be rough but look at what nephi and his family did! this is a piece of cake compared to them!! Yeah its so true everytime i feel home sick i find a way to serve my companion and the homesickness goes away! I miss you so much too man!!! Yeaah its so true conversion is a life time thing not a one time experience! Yeah its true everything is given little by little with time i will learn and grow and see the path the lord needs me to take! I love you so much too man youre my best friend!!! I will be man!! Thanks for that im gonna go read that right now!!! Love you so much!!!
p.s. im going to try to get back online after i get back from the temple so hopefully you guys will be awake then! it is 9:45 here and were going to the 2:30 session so i should be back around 4:30 to get back on for like an hour until i have to go to dinner at 5:30! Also the pictures i sent are the group of americans that we came on the plane with to ghana from amsterdam! they leave tuesday!!! its so weird tio think im almost past week 3!! time is starting to speed up which is nice!! Then the other pictures are me and my comps thanks giving feast!! Btw HAPPY THANKSGIVING send my love to everyone back at home!! Tell john and heather i miss them like crazy!!! The other picture is me eating bone! dont worry i only eat the end of the bone its actually a lot softer than you would think the bone here is different than in america im like 90% positive its safe lol!! all the other americans have been eating it wil no problem so i think im fine! idk if ill do it when im out in the field though haha! Then the last picture is with me and Elder Bell. He lives up in daybreak so he is like 5-10 min from the house which is crazy!! he went to Copper Hills! Also the adapters that i brought dont work here they are african ones that have three prongs so idk what to do ill probably have to just buy some when i get to the field. Maybe they are different in cote d’ivoire so who knows do some research for me! also how much money did i come on the plane with because i only have 335 but i thought i had 375 so try to figure it out cuz i think my comp might have taken money but idk and i didnt want to accuse him of something that isnt true so yeah just figure that out and let me know! love you so much man!!!!!!!
Je t’aime mon pére!!
