Good looking missionary

Happy birthday MOMMA!!!!  The big 55!  I hope you have a fantastic birthday and enjoy the German Chocolate cake.  I am going to make some brownies with chocolate chunks from my package and peanut butter swirls to celebrate with you.  Hope it’s a fantastic day!

Status update: the 'bola can't get me.  Still no cases in Ghana but there were 11 maybes and it has been transferred to Nigeria where 11 people have it.  We did get 5 new missionaries from the Sierra Leone and Liberia missions.  They seem pretty cool.  

Last week was SUPER busy.  We had to interview 13 candidates for baptism and we had MLC (mission leader’s council) all day on Thursday and some open houses we attended too.  And with the new missionaries they gave us they added a companionship to the zone so now we are up to 38 missionaries.  The average zone size in West Africa is 16 so we are double.  I love it though; we get to see all sorts of good stuff.  Because of that our proselyting is pretty limited.

This week is Zone Training meeting.  We're only stressing a little bit about that.  Hopefully it will go pretty well.  I really, really hope so.  

Friday was super sweet. We had FHE with a family in the ward.  We decided to bring refreshments this time and it was cool.  We got a bunch of Wafer cookies and soda for everyone and played my card game with them.  It was so, so good.  When we finished we both just had such a great feeling.  Makes life worth it, to feel like that every once in a while; man we felt so good.

Ultimate high point for the week!  I don't know if anybody remembers but back when I was in Buduburam I was teaching one woman named S. and she was super excited to be baptized but she wasn’t quite ready before  I got transferred.  I just found out that LAST Saturday she was  baptized!!!!  I called her this morning for the first time and she was so happy.  I have been worrying about her.  I am so happy that she got baptized.  The Church is true!!!!

Sorry gotta cut it short.  Light just went out and my time is up.  Love you all!
Love,

Elder Clark
