July 3, 2017 This week was fairly good. I made some mistakes, had some learning experiences; I’m still repenting daily, so it’s all moving forward! One thing that is really cool that is happening recently is that we’re working with this sister who is really, really powerful. We’ve born testimony so frequently that the lastContinue reading “Another Transfer in the Books”

Goats, Mango Leaves, and the Rain

My True Self
May 15, 2017 This Week To give you a quick update on what happened this week… we went to Bolga and it was really incredible.

Temporal Crocodiles
May 1, 2017 Well, this week there will be plenty of pictures! The reason I’m emailing so late in the day and you probably thought you missed me was because of this…We went to Paga!

Blood Tests, Russian Doctor, and Recuperation
April 24, 2017 Well, this week was kinda rough. One More Rough Week From last Saturday until last week Thursday we were inside.

Challenges and Changes

Elder Antwi has been a very unique companion, and I absolutely love him. The challenge with leadership is always keeping people happy, hardworking, and obedient. It’s still a challenge balancing nurturingContinue reading “Challenges and Changes”
Did you say Hedgehog?
March 27, 2017 Good afternoon/evening from Ghana! So, it’s crazy story time! On Tuesday we were going to our chapel for a meeting, District council to be exact.

It’s Tamale Hot
March 13, 2017 This week was really interesting, filled with a lot of cleaning and preparing because it was transfer week. We got a new missionary in the apartment with the other companionship. He’s from Tonga and he’s straight out of the MTC. So those first few days, not a lot happened. First Things First…WhatContinue reading “It’s Tamale Hot”
White Shirts & Ties and Bolga
Feb 27, 2017 Going To Visit Bolgatanga This week was really awesome. We ended up going to Bolgatanga to switch places with some other Elders for a short period of time (we call that going on exchanges). That place is super sweet. You can literally see the Spirit working in people who just come upContinue reading “White Shirts & Ties and Bolga”
