In Accra 3 times

hey how was the week??

i had another sweet week in ghana. we went to accra 3 times - once for transfers, once to send off some missionaries that have been serving in our mission temporarely back to the ivory coast mission, and once today to sent off four more of those missionaries.

President shulz has come with a few things that he wants for the mission. since he's come, he's thought of a few other things he'll be focusing on. he's a very faithful man. he has come with lots of energy and is very quick. we rarely need to tell him something twice, cause he'll remember it the next time. (i don't mean like telling him what to do i mean like telling him about the mission and him remembering.

for example, a week or two ago as we were going to have a meeting in swedru zone, i quickly explained to him the layout of the district and where our four branches are geographically in relation to each other. since that time we've been able to just talk to him about the branches there and he knows which ones we're talking about. he's quick.)

transfers was cool. it went pretty smoothly. we have a big group of 16 new missionaries who've just joined the mission and they are a spirited group. i'm excited about them and i think there gunna be some good missionaries there.

we still havent been able to spend very much time in our area. we're slowly needing to spend less and less time with the shulz as they become more acquainted with things here. but at the same time, we are trying to pick up on some of the saunders responsibilities so that we can be there to help the new office couple elder and sister asay when they come in a couple of weeks.

i'm also reading Jesus the Christ and loving it. if you want a more interesting update on how my life is, read elder adam's blog. he's been writing for a while, while i've been doing some office stuff.

let me know if you have any questions or advice or anything you'd like me to talk more about!

love you!
