Entire Ghana Accra West Mission with  Elder Renlund


This week was good.  I honestly forgot what happened.  However (as we all know) as I continue to write, I figure it out.

So, last Monday, the Senior Couples in this District (not a Stake) (they are sweet--they have 9 children and remind me of Grandma and Grandpa Ellsworth) (I didn’t tell them that because people always play like they are offended when I tell them they remind me of my grandparents) had the activity for the FHE at the Chapel.  It was a fun activity--they had toy cars (no idea where they got them) but they set up a relay race with them.  Super fun!

Then we did stuff and other things…OH YEAH!  It rained really hard! So, all of our plans for Tuesday failed because nothing happens in Ghana when it rains.  We went inside a container (it’s pretty much one of those metal containers that they have at shipping docks with a roof on it) that’s a business and we hid from the rain in there.  It was a sewing shop and the lady (turned out she’s a member) had a hand cranked sewing machine.  When it started to rain she literally stopped and went to sleep. She was completely covered.  It was raining so apparently that means nap time.

Other than that, not much happened.  I did read a scripture in Luke that emphasizes my point I made last week about doubts of faith and doubts that are rude. It’s in the book of Luke chapter 5 verses 5-6. This shows emphasizes my point, because Simon Peter could have said "you know it didn’t work before, so I shouldn’t follow this commandment now".  But he didn’t! He trusted the Savior and because of his faith (and then his work) he was able to receive the blessings.

Also in verse 8, I’m pretty sure that’s when the Spirit testified that Jesus was the Christ.

I FORGOT MY CAMERA!!!!! NOOOOOOO!! I HAD A SWEET, SIMPLE ANIMATION THING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sorry.  Well we had a baptism and there was this sweet animation thing I did.  Next time.

There was a dead bird in our wash water. I felt kind of bad, but he did his purpose in life so don’t worry about him (see bible dictionary revelation of John #4 Pg. 763).

Overall a sweet week.  Sorry no pictures!
love you all!
