10/1/19


My mission truly has helped in my Conversion. When I first got my call, I thought they were crazy for sending me to Africa! I also was very prideful and thought I would never learn anything from Africa.  Oh, how foolish was that thought!  Even my first Sunday in the field taught me better.  We were attending a stake conference in Kaneshie and an Area Seventy was there and I was humbled to say the least. But I came to love my mission (relatively quickly) and I have learned to Love God from these people and to truly have pure faith in the Savior Jesus Christ. He is real.

I always believed the church was true but since being in the field and from observing the members and people and reading the Book of Mormon, this religion has become real and is the only true religion and church on the earth. My testimony and Conversion have strengthened and I do not think I could have learned that any other place on the earth. Before I came on my mission, even to say the word God felt like a taboo for me.  Like something was wrong when I said the word God.  But now as I’ve seen the way of life in Ghana, I absolutely know there is no other way to life except to have God front and center in all things and rely wholly upon He who is Mighty to save.  Even our Savior Jesus Christ. Again, He is real! He lives! :)

The Mission asked me to share my conversion so I figured you’d want to hear a small part :)

But this week went well.  There was a flood today.  Crazy stuff but we are safe.  It was huge!  I wouldn’t be surprised if someone died (that sounds sad but I mean it’s just not safe if you aren’t looking) It was cool to see that much water.  I mean it’s always fun to look at a lot of water that’s the point of a beach right?? 

This week did go well we are working hard to help people come to the Sacrament Meeting on time.  It’s a bit difficult but I know they will come and it will be wonderful!

That seems like enough :)

Love you all!
