Not too many of these left, are there?


(from mom---these were sent in a personal message, but i thought i'd share...this is a goat...when i asked, "what is that? how did you cook it? etc. he answered: "Gas torch.. they slit the throat, and then burn all of the hair off... that way when you scrape off the char, you can eat the skin..then they boil the meat.")


Why is it that when you are having fun the time seems to fly? That has been the question on my mind for the past few weeks. My mission seems to be sliding away from me and it is really sad. I wish i had longer. But as i was sadly reminded this morning that i have just over 2 months left. But, I am going to keep on keeping on until my day comes!

These past couple of weeks have been the holidays and just true enjoyment as a missionary! We have been teaching a lot of really cool people lately and we are even hoping to have a couple of baptisms soon! But most importantly, I have been trying to work on bettering myself. I have been studying from Matthew about the life and ministry of Jesus Christ, It is amazing to see all the verses i had skimmed through during seminary... I know Jesus Christ is the Savior and Redeemer of the world. I know that if we look to Him we can receive forgiveness for our sins. I have seen it countless times here in Ghana and it always amazes me how much our Father in heaven loves each and every one of us. I love all of you! Have an amazing week!

Love,
