Week of 10 October 2016

This week we finished up getting the money prepared for the Elders and Sisters that get "travel" money within their areas and all the paperwork for the packets.  We are now ready for transfers.
En Elder Snow came to visit on Tuesday.  He is a Seventy and is over Church History.  He went to the Ola Chapel (place where the land was dedicated for missionary work) and Baptism Beach.

We got a new Office Elder on Monday.  He is Elder Hepworth.  Elder Johnson is leaving on the 26th for his new assignment.

It rained again and the road was very muddy.  We are looking forward to the dry season, I think.  During that time the winds blow from the Sahara Desert and brings all kind of sand and heat.  It is called Harmattan.

Didn't take any pictures this week, didn't do anything exciting.  So we decided to show some food that we eat.

Here is green pepper (usually the size of a tennis ball), tomato (don't know if this is a Roma, but they are small also), bananas (about 3 to 4 inches long) and a grapefruit.  The oranges and grapefruit never turn yellow

Here's our staple for lunch.  I make 2 loaves of bread every weekend.

And here is our milk powder and a bag of sugar.  The sugar is very course and it never cooks into anything.  So cookies and cakes crunch when you bite into them.

They asked Wayne to teach next Sunday in Priesthood.  Someone will have to translate into Fante for him.  Our 1st counselor in the bishopric just left our ward and is attending another ward that speaks English.  He tried to change it here, but nobody wants to speak English.  It was one of the very first wards in Ghana.  Hard to change their ways.

So have a good week.  We love you and miss you all.
