Hey Everyone!!!!!!!

So, on the plus side, I got a new camera today!!!!  So, now you can expect to see some pics from me.!!!!

Well, this week has been by the by the same, haha!!!!!  It's been just boring going around and seeing some investigators.  The baptisms didn't go through mainly because we had a problem with getting the water there on time.  We hope to baptize them on Saturday this week.  We have had quite the time with going around and going on exchanges.  It's a real bummer because I am most likely going to a new area this next transfer.  Transfers are on the 10th of May.  So, I'll Skype Sunday and leave on Tuesday.  I still don't know the time that I'll Skype, but I'll try to let you all know.  I haven't been the best on keeping up with everyone, but I would love to hear from all of you!!!!

So, it's pretty amazing at Sirco!!!!!  You can literally get anything there!!!! Except guns, but I haven't really looked for them haha!!!!!  So there were tons of things I could have gotten, but just for this trip I focused on getting a camera.  So who knows, I might be able to get something else cool!!!!  Other than that, I didn't do anything else too crazy haha!!!

So Mitch, keep yourself busy haha!!!!  Park, Briggs, keep doing amazing in track.  I'd love to hear how school's going too haha!!!  Everyone, keep being amazing, and don't forget, I'm always around just to be around!!!!!!

Love you all!!!!!  Be safe!!!!!

Love,

Enjoying banku

Banku is a Ghanaian dish which is cooked by a proportionate mixture of fermented corn and cassava dough in hot water into a smooth whitish consistent past.  Served with soup, stew or a pepper sauce with fish.  It is mostly preferred by the people of the Southern Regions of Ghana, particularly the Ga tribe but also eaten across the other regions in Ghana.  Banku is found throughout Ghana, and is one of the staple foods enjoyed by all tribes in the country.
