Week of 13 August 2016

Another week.  Wayne and I were very busy in the office.  But I think we got it down.  It should be easier from now on.
We had Zone Conferences this week.  The first in Takaradi, next in Telecom and then Praso.  Each were at least a 2 hour drive from the Cape.  President Stevenson had everyone write down what their worst fear is and then he had them all throw what they had written down in a fire.  To get rid of their fears.  It was really neat.

We took a picture of a termite mound.  This is at least 5 - 6 feet tall.

Here is the snake we found in our house the night we were robbed.  It was so long we couldn't get the whole thing in the picture.  I know it doesn't look that big around, but it was scary, nonetheless.


 We went down to the center of town to do some shopping.  Had to go to 3 stores and two outside vendors to get everything I needed. I made a carrot cake the other day and the Elders ate all of it.  There's no cream cheese here so I just made a white frosting.  Here is one of the stores we go to.
Just the bottom floor.  The other floors are other businesses.
And here is one of the streets we go on for the outside vendors.  One way and very crowded with people.

So here is a picture of our chapel and the Greenhill chapel.  Greenhill is all the way at the top of the hill and there are always chickens and goats all over the stairs.


This is Elder Ubani.  It was his birthday at MLC so we sang happy birthday to him.  And here are some pictures from MLC which was on my last post.


To top the week off we had a baptism in our Nkanfoa Ward.  It was a wonderful baptism.  everyone shouts "akwaaba" (welcome)
                                      to the new member after he comes back from changing.
                                                                      So here is Ishmael.

I think we are getting use to the weather.  We sleep with a fan blowing on us all night.  But it works.
We met together for priesthood and RS again this week because of the lesson from President Hunter was on eternal marriage.  They asked us how long we had been married and when we said 47 years they all oohed and aahed. 

Well that's it for this week.  We love you and miss you all.
