First attack being back.....

I love Patience :)

Normally I take photos of my journal so that I can recall what happened during the week, but last night and this morning were way rushed, so I forgot..... Which means that this email won't have many details and I'm sorry.

Where we start our day :)

Monday was still good. We went to an air-conditioned internet cafe that is super fast! So emailing was all joy and no stress.

Takoradi was way new to me, so Elder Williams took me around and showed me a few places that he knows about. Things are a lot more expensive over here in western region. We did our shopping and then went home so we could prepare to go out. We went to see sister Andrea. She's way nice and is a powerful member. She gave us rice ball and inketsiakwyn (peanut soup) but I told her about my allergy so she gave me stew instead. I had no idea she was going to feed us, otherwise I would have told her.

Mameya came with us to Anoe

Tuesday we had district meeting. Elder Bay gave a good instruction and then after we all went to eat at a chopbar. We saw a few people and then came back for a baptism. Turns out water had been an issue so we and Elder Bay quickly began siphoning water from the big water tanks outside. It all went well and things were good. :)

Wednesday was a kicker. I had a snack in between study sessions and had an allergy attack. Nothing huge but still a reaction. It was enough to keep me down for the whole day. My benadryl helped small and then my stomach was paining for nearly the whole day.

Wedding with Bro. Kenya :)

Thursday was better, we went out and did the normal work. Can't remember much but we did have a good PEC meeting in the evening where we were able to make plans for the auxillary presidents to come out with us and show us some less-active members so we can be seeing them throughout the week.

Friday and Saturday were pretty much the same. The sun was super hot and no one gave us time to teach them. We trekked clear out to the Chapel then to Anoe and then back to the Chapel and then to our house..... 30 minutes is the time taken to go from the house to the chapel. 45 from there to Anoe..... Plus lots of walking while at those destinations! Man, my legs were so dead...

Snails lay eggs.....

Sunday was the most rewarding Fast Sunday of my life. I chose a purpose that meant so so much to me, and then paired that with fervent prayer. I didn't feel hunger all day and only felt the thirst in the evening. It's not easy to change, but through His help all can be done. I am so grateful for a God who is willing to help us change into better people. When I got to the house, though, I drank an entire 1.5 liter bottle of water. That was sooo nice. :)

That was my week. Sorry for not as much info, I'll do better next week!
