We received transfer news on Saturday. Lambson and I are staying in Chantan haha!!!!! So, as for this week, it has been pretty interesting.
We had a baptism coming up, but it turns out that our person needs a special interview. See, Sister Eunice was given to us by the bishop and she has apparently been coming to church for a while. She pays her tithing and everything like that, but she has never been able to meet with the missionaries. We have had the chance to meet with her a few times and teach her. Unfortunately, we haven't had much luck with that. She doesn't live in our area, so it's hard. We have had a few lessons with her, but we discovered she needs a special interview in order to get baptized, so we'll see how it goes.
We have another investigator named Kwamie!!!! He's super cool. We have been seeing him for a little while and he's amazing. He likes to learn from us, but he hasn't been able to come to church yet. He owns a clothes shop and it's pretty sweet. I think I might get some sweet button ups here haha!!!! Other than that it's pretty amazing with him.
We have another brother named Percy!!!!!!!!!!!!! We met him when we first arrived in Chantan, he's pretty cool. He has a lot of friends that he wants us to visit, but unfortunately, on the day we go to see him, he is unavailable and away so we couldn't see anyone. Ironically, on that day we also met a man named Barik. He was drunk and wanted us to teach him so yeah. We came in, and were teaching him about the Word of Wisdom when a random girl came in and sat on his bed. We then figured out that he has Law of Chastity issues, so we need to go back and teach him about that haha!!!!! So, we plan on getting him baptized, but it's just hard for everything to go our way out here haha!!!!
We haven't had a lot happen this week, but we are working hard with our ward missionaries and members to find people to teach, so it's amazing!!!! The area is GOLDEN!!!!! We found legit Mountain Dew, A&W Rootbeer, and a few other sweet shops around where we live, so it's pretty sweet here haha!!!! We have had a lot of fun with the other members of our district, but I swear the sisters are going to drive me crazy!!!!! So, other than that, it's pretty sweet here in Chantan.
Well, for some odd reason, Mom and Dad, I haven't heard from you in a few weeks [one week], and that just sucks. I hope to hear from you soon. Also, I'd like to know how the jobs are going with Mitch and Andy. What are Park and Brigg doing for the summer, and also, I'd love to hear from all of you on how life is going back home haha!!!!! I love you all and I hope to hear from you soon!!!!! Also, another reminder, Mom, can you put some money in my account, I found some sweet African stuff for all of you back home, all I need is the money to get it haha!!!! Also, can I get some feedback on the Rick Riordan books haha!!!!!
Love you all !!!!!!!!!!
Love,
Elder Stockton Smith
