| Interviews |
We did our morning usuals. Washing and gyming and cleaning. When we went to email we had to wait for Narnia and a half since Ghanaians don't know how a line works. Eish. But when we got to email, it was good. After We went and walked around town, I bought some fabric for my future wife. ;) shopped for our food and then in the evening we went to President Adjaes house (1st counselor to President Stevenson) for FHE. He invited a lot of the missionaries and we had a great time.
District meeting was good. Elder Rugundana gave a nice instruction regarding less actives and how we can better involve members and how to strengthen our converts. We saw Gloria and Charity and had good lessons with both of them. We're preparing both of them for baptism, but mainly Charity. In the evening we went to mid week and there the ward had a discussion on Optimism which came from the teachings of President Gordon B. Hinckley. I love talking about Optimism. :)

Wednesday we had interviews with President at 1:30. We watched a training that was delivered for the Mission Presidents and Elder Oaks wanted the missionaries to also watch it. During, President pulled us out one by one. I renewed my temple recommend and got some questions answered. I love interviews. :) After we went with Elder Swartbooi to go teach a man named Bro. Mensah, that guy is messed up up top. The way he twists scriptures to get what he wants and turns you on yourself. So stubborn and hardheaded. He'll need the missionaries in the next life....
Man, spiders are everywhere. It seems like I kill one or two a day. As I was removing the barracade from the door in the morning, the fetching thing starts gapping it up my arm! Shook it off and gooshed it real good as it was trying to evade through the shoes. Sleep. Hate spiders.

We saw Dina today. I love her children, especially her little boy. He's kind of an adrenaline junkie though. He loves thrills. We saw Charity and Gloria, but Gloria and her daughter were a little sick.
We honestly have no one to teach. Our first appointment as at 5 and we leave the house at 11..... What are we supposed to do for 6 hours?!?!?! So we went and did some GCing in Twabewu. Found some people but we'll see if they're serious. One was named Elikem (Alfred) and the other was Abigail. Missionary work is so much more sweet when you have people to see. We saw Mary Fynn but that was a bum lesson, she wasn't focused. In the evening the whole apartment gymed. All 6. That was a first. Only 2 of us are regulars, so the other 4 were a surprise.

Saturday was actually good. We went to an Engagement in the morning for a member and investigator who will soon be a member. We saw Alfred when we got back and he seems like a sweet guy, he calls himself a Roaming Ambassador since he has no church. :) Then we saw Dina and she gave us some Geoloff. We saw Gloria but she was a little frustrating. We don't know why she doesn't want to come to church. She's stopped her church and has said our church is true, but then she doesn't come. I just don't know.

Sunday was great! We had 3 investigators come to church. Charity, Christiana, and Abigail! I was shocked to see Abigail! She was the GC and we invited her to church and she came! She fit in very well and the young women pulled her in immediately. The youth of the church are good. :) Christiana will get baptized next transfer. We went home for lunch and then went and visited with Gloria and Dina to see why they didn't come, and both said that they had no reason...... Garbage. I'm just confused because we've tried everything and they're giving us mixed signals. Sister Teressa fed us all Fufu with Light Soup. I love light soup from members, they make it soooooo nice. We went to an activity at the church in the evening and Abigail came to that too! I have wonderfully high hopes for her. :)
