2 August 2010

Brrrr. We've been nearly freezing the past week. I bet we've been below seventy some mornings. You have to be very courageous to take cold showers in these kinds of conditions. All in all though the weather was great this week. We had a lot going on. We are trying to take some time to be sure and get to know all the members here as fast as we can. Elder Nielsen and I are brand new and pretty new, respectively, to the area and we have a 3 branches of members to know and get referrals from. On saturday Felix was able to be baptized without us, because we were in Kof. attending leadership training. It was a good baptism and a good meeting. At the training we focused on 2 of the new teaching principles: The doctrine of Christ, and the role of the spirit in conversion. Also this week I got to have snails for the first time. They're easier to eat then cow skin. We chopped it with fufu. The other interesting thing we had happen was that the office elders came up with supplies for a new companionship. Beds, chairs, and things so probably next transfer we'll have 4 missionaries in Asamankese. Anyway, I love you guys a ton. Hope you have a great august. Love, Elder Chambers
