Church was Good

My companion and I did a lot of finding last week. We've been asked to try thinking of new finding ideas so we tried to mix things up. We mostly just switched up our approaches. We tried going around just asking for service. That didn't work too well. People just don't want to be helped. We did get one service opportunity out of it though. We're going to help pull weeds out of someones garden. It's a garden of weeds. It needs to be done. Now we have lots of potentials from the last two weeks and so we're planning on doing all we can this week to contact as many as possible. 

Church was good. Issac came to church for the first time in five years. He met the bishop and made plans to move his records to the ward. It turns out our bishop knew his bishop back in Ghana. He was able to tell Issac that his bishop back at home passed away a couple years ago. Issac was able to meet lots of the people in the ward; they did a good job to fellowship him. We were also able to meet the new family in the ward. They didn't need us last week for service but today we'll be helping them move things. They moved here from central London but they're originally from Hong Kong. His name is Gabriel Cheung and they're a young family expecting a child. Sam was also at church. He acts like a member already but he still doesn't have the time to meet with us. We met with him twice last week and we want to meet with him twice this week but he says he's just too tired after work. We'll talk him into it. We had a few good teaches with new investigators and hope to get more. Over all things are going very good.

Hey Sister Fisher I got a hug in the male from Tanis too!

 It's been really nice and warm lately. We had rain yesterday and today but it's supposed to get nice again for the week. The rain here is like Sister Fisher said: like a mist. It's usually like that though sometimes we get drops.

Our ward is mostly Ghanaian's. It's a nice ward. The Sintims have us over every week and over-feed us with African Food. Pauline Welch is the missionary mother of the ward. They have all the missionaries over every week. They're the ones that pranked me. Our ward mission leader is really good at keeping up-to-date about our investigators as well as less actives. He's a busy guy but I think he mostly tries to focus on organizing members to fellowship the people we're working with.

Elder Heninger is a cool guy. He's really friendly and outgoing. We get along really well. He likes camping and hunting, especially duck hunting. He also likes sports. Oh and snowboarding.

 No one cares about Halloween over here. Everyone just wants Halloween to get out of the way so they can start celebrating Christmas.

Now to answer Mums question.

I wish I learned a language. There are a lot of people around here that speak multiple languages and I've always wanted to learn one but I've never been able to decide what language I wanted to learn. Right now I want to choose between Mandarin, Japanese, German, Italian or Spanish. I know I took French in high school but that class sucked. I also wish I learned piano.
