-I
have more to say this time so let me start by saying that President and Sister
Holmes came and spent the week in Tamale with us. Their main purpose was to find
locations to rent for 4 chapels so we can grow faster. He went with my companion
and I one day and we picked a place out. It'll be right in the middle of our
area and it looks like a nice place! AND it's on a main road. It'll be awesome.
But we also had 2 movie night firesides. One on tuesday, one on thursday. The
tuesday one was more of a warm up for the thursday one. Tuesday about 25 came,
and we watched Joseph Smith the Prophet of the Restoration. President Holmes
gave a powerful explanation about the restoration to those present (remember
this is like 90% investigators). Then on thursday, we rented a conference room
at a nice hotel and we filled half the room (like 40-50 people total) and
watched The Testaments. I always love the part at the end when Helam realizes
that it's Jesus who touches his shoulder. It's great acting. We got quite a few
new people from that.
-My burn is healing. No worries. Sister
Holmes was worried about it all week but it's totally fine and healing. By
friday it'll be fully healed I think.
-Elders and I
are creating our own language with new symbols and stuff. There's around 35
letters. It's super awesome and will be our special secret language. We are
actually getting far with it though. We have pronouns already, next we're doing
verbs. We feel like Tolkien, creating our own language for no reason
whatsoever.
That's all this week! We will be preaching again on
Tuesday we think.
Love you guys! Keep the faith! Good luck washing! You
should do it by hand!
