Hi
Everyone,
Well this past week was good. We went to
Kumasi on Tuesday for a combined zone meeting. On our way there, we saw this big
dump truck that was sideways in this ditch, with a whole load of plantains
scattered everywhere. There were
people gathering them up like crazy! haha.. It was funny to see. I was not
quick enough to get a picture; but next time I’m sure there will be something.
After our Zone Meeting, we went to the Metro Mass Station (it’s a really big
bus station) and waited for about an hour and a half to get our tickets to head
back to Obuasi. We were sweating
bullets the whole time; even worse when we got on the bus. But once we got
going, it wasn’t too bad.
So we were able to go to our new area (Abompe)
and teach David, Eric and Sarah. They say they don’t have money to come to
church, but whenever we get the new chapel in Kofikrom, (which is a lot closer),
they say that they'll come. So
most of the people are very friendly and kind, but you have those others (like
we have everywhere) that are not too friendly and nice; but we try not to mind
them. Yeah, so David, he is an older man. He is retired from A.G.A. and can’t
walk very good. He is Presbyterian, and every time we go and ask him to pray, he
says “The Lords Prayer”. But on Friday, we had our branch president Manu with
us. We asked David to pray, and he
prayed just like we do. It wasn't “The Lords Prayer!” So I can see how the gospel, and the lessons we have taught
him so far has and is changing him.
So Brother Rodney Palmer and his wife
are really nice. Everytime they come, they bring us cookies. Yesterday, they brought us muffins.
They really hit the spot. The new chapel however, still needs some more work
for us to move in to it. It’s also up another hill. It’s pretty much a 4-wheeler
road. When we were checking out the chapel, the Palmers drove us up the hill in their car. haha… It was fun!
So other than that nothing else has
really happened here in Obuasi. It’s just been raining a lot. It’s raining now.
I had to break out my umbrella for the first time. Well thank you for everything. Take care! Love you all!
Love Ty
This is the Obuasi chapel.
It fills up quickly.
This is the Obuasi baptismal font.
