So this week was pretty boring actually haha!!!!
So we went around and met with a few investigators that we have and a few of them have a lot of potential!! Elder Roberts and I plan to baptize a young man named Osumon on Saturday! He wants me to baptize him, and I really want to baptize him.
So, if I can baptize him, that will be my first baptism in less than 1 month of being in Ghana!!!! So the people here are so nice!! They are all spiritual and they love to see us and talk with us. The only downsides are biking everywhere, people being gone for work, and how much the culture is different in Ghana!!!
So fam, if you could send me the right cord for my camera that would be great!! If not, I might just buy a new camera. We are able to Skype or call on Friday, and we might go for about 7 here, so it would be about noon back home. I need the Skype address from mom, and I need to know if that time will work.
Please email me back quickly cuz I only have about an hour and a half left on here, so hopefully you write back quickly.
Love you Fam!!! Being in Ghana, I know that I took things for granted back home. I never truly appreciated what I had. Being here, I look anywhere and see that people couldn't be happier with their lives, even when they have so little to survive on. These people, this area, this world is a blessing, and we need to cherish every moment of it. It's hard here for sure, bit I know with the Lord's help, I can get through anything that comes my way!!!!
