How has it been 5 weeks already? These last couple weeks have been incredible. We had five of our investigators baptised, two of them english speakers so I had to translate for them which was so amazing. We had to fill the baptismal font up with buckets because the water to the church turned off haha it was an experience for sure, but just like always the Lord helps you! Many members came to help us fill the font and after about an hour and a half, we got the font filled up high enough so we could kneel down to baptise them. This baptism was so beautiful and what was also so amazing is these investigators helped us fill the font where they would then be baptised, it was so cool and the spirit was so strong through this whole thing! We had zone conference which was wonderful! It’s always good to get together with all the elders and our mission President. Elder Nelson and I are having so much fun serving together, we absolutely love these people here in Nsam! I got my first package from home which was so awesome! it was nice to get some things from my family! Ive been rocking only one pair of shoes these last couple months because my last ones broke so it was nice to receive another pair in the package! Life is amazing here in Cameroun, I absolutely love these people! my french keeps getting better and better each day thanks to my Father in Heaven! I know without a doubt if you ask God for help he will always be there to help! I love you all, thank you for all your prayers!
It was my first week here in Nsam and holy cow I love it here!!!! It is so much cooler haha Douala was so hot!!! Here are some pics from my week! We took some cool pics on this railroad track which was cool. We were trying to reenact Josh’s pic, but yeah his is so dope haha We can’t, but hey it was cool! Also, there are so many hills here. It’s crazy and so pretty!! It kinda reminds me of Costa Rica a little lol! Also, its sooo dusty here and the dirt is sooooo red! The pic of us sweeping was just after one week at the church, then the baptism font which is kinda sketch haha The water was almost black lol and then these 2 sweet little boys that Elder nelson and I baptized last Saturday! Then some pics on top of our church with the other elders in our apartment, Elder Soto and Elder Thompson. Then just some pics with my comp outside the church. I taught these elders how to make bracelets haha and Elder Nelson and I made matching Gabon ones lol. Then this morning!!! Elder Nelson and I went and hiked this mountain like an hr from our sector which was soooooo pretty the view was gorgeous!! We took some dope pics and then after that we went to this market and got jerseys and then fanny packs lol Then I bought this beautiful painting we saw on the side of the road after hiking up the mountain, we just walked up the road it wast a real hike lol but the painting is beautiful! anyways.
