Happy New Year everyone! May we all set dieting and workout goals and then just stop cause it's too hard by the 3rd week of January.😂 Well that's what me and my comp did, but it's going to go through the whole year. It's been nice eating healthy the last week. Definitely feeling better than I was just eating whatever the heck I want. 


We have two baptisms this Sunday! Sister Florence and Sister Grace. I'm so excited for them. Both of them have been coming to Church for a long time but certain circumstances made it so they couldn't be baptised until now. Both of them have helped me learn the importance of planting seeds. 

The past couple of weeks have definitely been different because of the holidays. It's been awesome to see The Lord's hand in his work though. One miracle from this week was when we went to see Sister Marium on Saturday to read the Book of Mormon. She ended up not being around. Her neighbor greeted us and wanted to know who we are. She had seen us come by a few times and didn't know what we did. We got talking to her and she seemed really cool. She eventually asked us if God really loves her, and if her pain will ever turn into joy. We answered both of the questions by simply pointing her to Jesus Christ. We helped her understand that plenty churches talk about peace in Christ, but don't know how to truly find it. We are going to teach her this week and I'm super excited about it. Another Miracle was just yesterday. A member brought her friend name Bernard to church. He told us that he really enjoyed and wants to join us. We will also teach him this week and I'm super excited about it.

Yesterday we got fed three times, and they were all fufu.... and fufu is mad heavy haha. Anyways the first one was from Abena, and bless her heart for feeding us, but it was mad sus. Fufu with goat meat, goat liver, goat intestine, and goat sperm. Yeah, goat sperm. 🤢 It wasn't pleasant. The next two fufu meals were from members, and they were delicious. 

Transfers are next week so we will see if I stay. I've been in Nkawkaw for 6 months so I feel like I'm going to leave. I definitely don't want to though. I'm about to write President Kunz and beg him to stay haha.

December 26, 2022 When The Imposter is SUS Merry Christmas everyone! I hope everyone had a good Christmas like I did. There was an imposter among us this week and it was a member. She wanted to give out some Book of Mormons for Christmas and it was a good idea, until she decided to slap a fake sister name tag on, and then put money in the front pages while handing them out. That was mad sus. This week was mad busy... had an exchange on Wednesday, zone conference Thursday, and then Christmas eve and Christmas. Me and my companion are feeling super tired today haha.  On our exchange this week we decided that we would try and find as many new people to teach as possible. I was with Elder Sandukira, who is from Malawi. It was a fun day if contacting, and teaching with him. We met lots of new people.  Our zone conference was super long, but really good. We learned a lot about faith. We also learned we will all be getting phones this next year, so we don't have to share anymore whic...

 September 12, 2022  Kaafra for not emailing last week. We had a busy pday. Last Monday was my birthday so we stayed the night with the Mpreaso elders and went to rock city the next day to grab some pizza. It wasn't the same as any pizza at home but it was way good. In Ghana they soak you I water on your birthday too, and that night Elder Gilbert, and the two other elders in our apartment got me good haha. Anyways Elder Gilbert actually got sent to transfers on Wednesday and I got assigned to a new trainer. Elder Gilbert got sent to Tamale. I will definitely miss him. My new companions name is Elder Bai and he is from Liberia. He is a great man and loves the work. Both of his parents have died while he has been on mission and he didn't go home. He is also a convert to the church as well. He was baptized 4 years ago, and what's crazy is that he used to be a Muslim. I've already learned a lot from him and I still have more to learn.  I've been showing Elder Bai the ar...

 September 19, 2022  What up everyone I hope you all are doing fine. This week we had zone conference but we had Elder Klebingat there, from the quorum of the 70. He gave an awesome instruction and I learned a lot from him. He also cracked down on all the disobedience in the mission. He is over the Africa West area, and a lot of the missions here have problems with obedience, and He is using our mission to try and figure out the problem. It was interesting being a fresh missionary here and hearing about some of the whack stuff that other missionaries will do. Anyways his instruction was awesome and I learned a lot. I saved a lot of scriptures from the instruction that I will definitely review. This week had its ups and downs, but mostly ups! Me and my new companion Elder Bai are terrible at taking pictures so my fault, I'll do better hahah. We taught some powerful lessons this week and are starting to find out how we can best teach together. We are starting to get to know each...
