What a truly fantastic week for America as we
won the biggest rivalry match in the World Cup. It was a suspenseful
night for me. We aren't allowed to watch the games and the game was on at
10pm anyway but the guy in the house next to us was watching and it was loud so
I could hear from my bed pretty well. it was pretty sweet. We
finished planning and I turned on my ipod and turned on the national anthem a
little before 10. Elder V. and I just stood with our hands on our hearts
and then not even 30 seconds after it finished we hear through the window
"Hey! The USA scored us!" It was a fantastic night. He
closed the windows around half time so I was in the dark but then I heard the
world go crazy and I knew they scored and I didn't know we scored again until I
had to pee and then I heard and man I started jumping and yelling and hooting
and hollering. What a blessing, I really didn't want to be in Ghana if we
lost. All the grief we have been getting since January when it was
announced and now beautiful silence. It's nice.
Well, we chose to
postpone the baptism until next week. K. is a really sweet guy who is
preparing for the same day, the 5th. Saturday we did have a baptism
though. One is this old woman that is an absolute hoot. She's got a great
heart. After the baptism she comes up to me and says "Elder Clark,
why didn't you baptize me? I wanted you to do it." I was
touched, made me feel really good.
We had a zone activity
this morning and played soccer. That was also fun. Now I'm pretty
tired.
Really don't have much to
say about the week. Love you all!
Elder Clark
