And October is basically over too. Everyone
goes by faster. Oct 20, 2014
Hope everyone is doing
well this week! This week was full of surprises for us. We have a
great Mom and son we are teaching. They are pretty sweet. The mom
came to Church on her own the other day and then her son came last week.
He is really enthusiastic about the Gospel. He wants to learn all this
stuff about Christ and his life and everything. He hasn't been baptized
before and at first when we invited them he wasn't super excited but now he loves
the idea.
On Sunday we got a
sweet referral from a member, our assistant ward mission leader, Bro A.
The guy is cool. He met the missionaries 7 years ago and lost contact
with them but has been reading from our Old Testament study manual and had a
bunch of questions for us. Not the best place to start for a beginner but
we had a nice conversation about Jesus Christ being Jehovah. That is
actually a big concern people have in Ghana. He's a cool
guy. He actually doesn't go to church anymore because he doesn't believe
in any of them but when we met him he basically said "You are the only one
that I have met twice so that has to be something different about you
guys." Yep, How about the restored gospel. I love the gospel.
It's life changing.
That brings me to this
sweet guy I met in another area on an exchange this week. He is 14 years
old and is a recent convert. I have no idea how he joined the Church
because his parents hate the Church. The
kid is a stud though and comes to Church every week and passes the sacrament
and reads from the Book of Mormon and is awesome. The faith of some of
the Saints here is so touching.
Sunday I got a visit from
some of my friends in the Kaneshie Ward! There is one old couple I was great
friends with. Right when I left they got called to be PEF
missionaries. So I was sitting in sacrament with some members and the
meeting ended and I stand up and hear an Unforgettable "Elder Clark."
I turned around and was so surprised to see them sitting there with tags
and all. I tried to get a picture but it didn't work out but they are
coming back in a few weeks so we will get one then. It was super cool to
see them again. I still love Kaneshie with all my heart.
Anyway, love you all!
Elder Clark
