Hey Family,
FHE with our new converts family ninssémon, another family who is seriously the best and completely are holding this ward together. Family bolly and then family doué, the ones who have been struggling with their marriage, and then there was this vieux père fr seri who seriously reminds me so much of mom’s dad ron. Seriously the coolest guy!! And then fr dalo the Sunday School president! Such a great night seriously! I have never felt the spirit so strong and seriously that night the lord spoke to these brothers and sisters through me! It was the most incredible experience I’ve ever had on mission! I understand really now how peter felt teaching the disciples of christ with Jesus! Idk it was an amazing experience!!! On top of that fr ninssémon shared a war story which is really his conversion story. It seriously brought tears to my eyes!!!! During the war he was taken hostage and separated from his family for a year and had no communication with them. They had no clue where he was and what had happened and if he was even alive! During this time he was at a camp and was put in a cell that literally was 3ft by 5ft by 6ft or something like that. Just some puny little box that to lay down to sleep at night he had to turn his body and put his legs up on the wall just to get his back flat. It was when i heard that that literally i just wanted to cry. He explained how they treated him super bad and he didn’t have much food or water and then it wasn’t till after that one day they came and said that he was free to go and that he was the only one free to go that they had no charges against him. On the other side back at home his wife everyday would pray for him and never lost hope everyone thought he was gone and dead but she never lost hope in him and now they are back together and happy. Seriously he just started getting emotional at this point just thanking us for the blessing we have been to him that the gospel has changed his life completely. That Sunday his little brother came over right after his confirmation and was trying to get him to go to the bar with him (he was a heavy drinker before his baptism). He followed the spirit and didn’t go and in explaining that seriously the spirit was so strong everyone was so shocked! It was so incredible! He is this huge jacked military guy that turned soft cuz of the gospel! It has been so amazing to see his life completely change !!!!! So yeah super awesome experience and the highlight for sure of the week!!!!! We then had a mangez-vous with family doué chez ma famille gueré on a mangé foufou manioc avec sauce longueur c’était très doux je te dis!!!!!! So yeah super awesome week!!!! Have an awesome week!
Love,
