Hey everyone. I hope you guys had a great week Happy birthday patrick and happy halloween everyone else. This week was hectic as usual. Seriously, at times I wish I had Hermione's time turner. Lately it seems like time is always running out instead of passing by or marching forward. Anyway this week was filled with the normal proselyting except over two areas instead of one and three missionaries instead of two. WE also had to go to the banka like 4 times to try to get Elder Lemmneh's subsistence and/or ATM card. It just wasted time because we never got either. Also whenever we do anything from companion study to planning it goes very very slowly since we are now 3 instead of 2 and Elder Lemmneh is being trained. I don't know if you guys can remember what I was like when family home evening lasted for more than 45 minutes? Well you can imagine what I feel like when it's 10:30 and we've been doing weekly planning since 6:00. Anyway slowly buy surely or something, right? Lately it seems like everyone we meet wants to feed us banku. On friday night we ate two balls of banku. Each one was 8 inches in diameter. Elder Lemmneh hardly ate any so Elder Nwachuku and I ate like literally 5 pounds of banku each. It was not easy. We were full all the way until saturday night when we ate banku again (fortunately it was a normal sized portion). On saturday Elder Lemmneh thought he was going to die because he was so sick. Either he had malaria because he doesn't take his doxycycline or he had food poisoning because he eats raw cabbage every day. Regardless it made us to spend saturday mostly stuck in the apartment. Anyway, he took medicine for malaria and he's now feeling fine. This all happened just two days after we were warning and warning him to take his doxy. He kept saying that that god would protect him because he was a missionary....... well we still tried to expound the doctrines involved but he hardened his heart. Anyways I hope you guys had a great week and are enjoying life. Love you all. Love, Elder Chambers
