Transfer Calls

Yo, good week let me tell ya about it! 


- Elder Barnes tried to make a 2 foot jump over a puddle...hit the mud and slipped backwards covering his self in mud, but luckily didn't get a whole lot on his shirt! 
- a friend we have been teaching and had on date is already a member?? Was baptized in Côté D’ivore but didn't think it counts or something
- got some cool cargo pants made
- got a package from my dear dear mother of jerky and hi-chews, hi-chews were gone in matter of minutes  
- transfer calls! Me and my fils (son) will be staying together and exploring the wonderful world of Porto-Novo together for another tranasfer! 
- Finally learned how to make peanut sauce (shout out Elder Yao) its fire stuff 
- ate fufu and peanut sauce for dinner on sunday 
- got told my cargo pants are for girls 🥲 
- had 2 baptisms! Great stuff! I am so happy Angela and Odette were able to be baptized, such great stuff! 
- taught the gospel
- played soccer, I'm goalie cause I'm slow and cant play that well, but I'm getting better. I'm going to score this week 
- saw a HUGE spider and i was gonna take a pic when someone killed it and said "those are evil spirits, they do nothing but evil" and i said "but they eat the mosquitos and such things" and they said "wait...really...?" Sooo school system here is doing wonderfully 
- had an exchange with Elder Kazadi in Akpakpa, did door to door all day...but my contacting skills are through the roof now 
- the night of transfer calls the power was out and we were sitting in the living room and a single lamp in the middle, felt like a camp fire
- got a super cool email from some people in my home ward, great activity was done by them.
- had a triple decker blister on my pinky toe…now i have a hole in my pinky toe made by me and a knife 

Thats all folks hope you all had a great week! Be safe out there and wear your seatbelt

So, this week was great! We started French and found out we get out a week early! I have 2 more weeks, then I'm in Benin! 14 days! I'm so excited to go serve the people of my mission! We are leaving a week early because some of the mission presidents in Africa have a big conference the next week, so anyone who was suppose to leave that week is leaving earlier so their president is there to greet the new missionaries.   So, here's the weekly Lelekumo section: There's a new elder here from Korea (Elder Yoo) and Lelekumo is so curious about him and he asked him if he know a couple different Chinese actors and Elder Yoo goes “No, they are from China, I'm from Korea" and Lelekumo goes "ohhh OK" then goes quiet for a few minutes while we all talk. He then goes "do you know karate?" And Elder Yoo goes "no...again from China...I think" and Lelekumo goes "Kung fu??" And Yoo goes "thatsJapan I think" and Lelekumo goes “Ha...

 Andy met with the Stake President, President Averett, tonight.  And then we were able to meet with them and Andy pushed the submit button.  EEKKK....a little bit of tears from mom, and excitement all  around.  The wait has been about 8-20 days....so now we wait.  So proud of Andy and his desire to serve and represent our Heavenly  Father.

Hey yall! Another week in Africa down and I loved every second of it!! So, let's go over some highlights of this week, shall we? First off: finally met some people that did Voodoo and it was pretty fun. They seemed like normal people but, when we asked them to come to church they started dancing chanting "we do Voodoo!" And something else i didn't understand (think it was évé) and we just turned around and walked away, pretty fun! Not what I was expecting from Voodoo people and to be honest they could have been lying so we would leave.  It worked tho!  Second: put two more friends on date for baptism!! One dude was being taught in Benin before moving here and our first time meeting him he said "I need to be baptized, I am ready" and so we came to with a plan on when to teach him the lessons and he's already coming to church so November 23rd here we come! He's so excited! Talking about baptisms! We got one this Saturday! We have been teaching this sis...
