Week of 17 July 2017

I am going to try and explain a typical teaching moment.


Elders Kiiza and Bakula are trying to teach.  Elder Bakula is sitting on a rock and everyone else on Benches or pans.  So we had chickens, goats, sheep just come walking through.  Motorcycles, cabs and tros were constantly passing by.  Elder Bakula almost got hit by a tro.  People were always walking by and would stop to say hi or shake hands.  Then to top it off, one of the huts close by started to play music and it was't soft.  Sister Sorensen and I just laughed.  We don't know how anyone learns anything.


It started to rain and kept raining for quite a while.  this is the road to Praso.  Just one big mud puddle









We've seen some pretty crazy genealogy while here in Ghana, but this takes the cake.  Written on living cactus trees.  There were about three of these.



Can't stop taking pictures of the primary children.  





So President had his first fufu.  The next day he told us he was up all night.  We know the feeling!



We have 20 new Elders and Sisters coming in next week.  We had the new trainers get together on Friday.



After all the missionaries left on Friday, a truck backed into the compound.  This is what President and Sister Hillam had shipped here to put inside the mission home.  Don't know where they are going to fit everything.  There were two more crates on the other side.


We had a baptism on Saturday.  Two girls who have been coming to Primary forever.  They finally asked their parents if they could get baptized.  It was a very sweet day.  Some of the primary children came to say Akwaaba to their dear friends.  And our wonderful Primary President, Sister Ewudzie.
Grace and Ingred


We so love being here.  Good people, good spirit, great missionaries and wonderful Mission President and his wife.

We love you and miss you all.
