Hey everybody. It was great talking to all of you on Mother's day (yesterday). It was nice to hear what you are all doing. A lot of things happened this week actually. First of all Elder Nielson and I were working hard finding people and teaching for commitment. We were blessed and found some really solid people and were able to extend a few baptismal dates as well. On Thursday night we also teamed up make no bake cookies. They tasted delicious, but were a bit expensive. On friday, Elder Nielson decided to call President Smith. He told him that he was falling in love with a girl in our ward and asked to be transferred. So that afternoon the APs came and picked him up and switched him with Elder Haggard who was at McCarthy Hills. So I'm with Elder Haggard now, since friday. He seems pretty cool and is liking his mission. He's from Oregon/Chicago and has been out since september last year. Anyway the real transfers are this wednesday so I don't know if he'll go somewhere else, or if I will, or what will happen. It seems like I'll probably be staying, though, since I can't really be showing Elder Haggard the whole area just tonight and tomorrow. On saturday we got stuck with the job of finding someone to come and pump out our septic tanks/cess pool. That was interesting. They filled the truck on Saturday and had to come back this morning to finish emptying the pit. They charged 250 ghana cedis. Sunday we had a nice day at church, some good lessons in the afternoon, and I got to talk to you guys! Love you so much. Love, Elder Chambers
