Eating Cat!

 June 24, 2014

HI Mother,

HOW ARE YOU DOING? I'M SO SORRY THAT I DID NOT SEND EMAIL LAST WEEK. I REALLY TRIED SO HARD TO FIND A INTERNET CAFE BUT IT WAS PRETTY HARD TO FIND ONE WHICH IS NOT BUSY. WHAT IS GOING ON WITH MARY? IS SHE DOING DANCE OR WHAT? THAT DRESS LOOKS REALLY GOOD. HOW IS SUMMER GOING FOR YOU GUYS? LAST WEEK WE HAD A CONFERENCE WITH PRESIDENT AND SISTER SHULZ. THEY WERE SAYING GOOD BUY TO US.WHICH WAS PRETTY SAD.THEY ARE LIVING ON 30 OF THIS MONTH AND THE NEW PRESIDENT IS ARRIVING ON 28 OF THIS MONTH. I REALLY MISS YOU GUYS SO MUCH! TO BE HONEST WITH YOU. WE WATCHED TWO GAMES OF WORLD CUP.THE ONE WHEN GHANA PLAYED US AND THE ONE LAST NIGHT PORTUGAL  PLYING US WHICH WAS 2-2. 

MY CHAMPIONSHIP'S NAME IS CALLED ELDER **&^* FROM UGANDA.HE STAYS IN JINJA.MOM HERE WITH MY NEW COMPANION THINGS ARE NOT GOING ON OKAY. HE REALLY DRIVE ME CRAZY.THE FIRST DAY WHEN I WENT TO PICK HIM HE TOLD ME THAT HE DID SEND A LETTER TO THE PRESIDENT SAYING THAT HE DOES NOT WANNA BE WITH A WHITE COMPANION.HE WAS PRETTY HAPPY TO HAVE ME AND I WAS TOO. GUESS WHAT HE DOES? HE CALLS SISTER MISSIONARIES AT NIGHT WHICH IS NOT GOOD AT ALL. HE ALSO HAS A PHONE WHICH HE USES TO EMAIL HIS FRIENDS AT NIGHT. YOU KNOW WE ARE TWO BlACK GUYS AND TWO WHITE DUDES IN THE APARTMENT. SINCE HE COME IN THE APARTMENT HE NEVER TALK TO THE WHITE GUYS IN THE APARTMENT. I TRIED TO TALK TO HIM BUT HE DOESN'T WANT TOO. ONE TIME THE DISTRICT LEADER Heard HIM TALKING ON THE PHONE WITH THE SISTER THEN HE SAID NOT HE WAS NOT. FOR ME IN MY MIND I THINK THE REASON WHY HE TOLD PRESIDENT SHULZ THAT HE DOESN'T LIKE WHITE GUYS BECAUSE HE WANTED TO DO WHAT HE WANTS. I AM REALLY TRYING TO HELP HIM OUT.BUT EVEN RIGHT NOW HE IS NOT WITH ME. HE WENT WITH OTHER GUYS. FOR ME I STAYED WITH THE TWO WHITE GUYS IN MY APARTMENT. I LOVE YOU MOM!!!!!!!!

Hey there,

This week was the Transfer news and guess what? I'm staying in my area. my companion is living to go the new area called Takoradi. i thought that maybe it will be me living but it did not work out. I really knew that two of us one will be living this time because the president told me that we can't stay together forever. I'm really going to miss him so much! He has been really good friend. He taught me how to be are good missionary. Teaching the plan of salvation was pretty hard for me but he helped me know how to teach it better. i and elder Richards we were the first missionaries to come to this area were we are teaching the people were not serious at all. Then we started doing our best in searching for the new people. But now the area is really good. Our branch is now  building up with more people. Every body now know my name which is Kobwina Epofe in fani. In English epofie is Periwinkle. Then kobina is " Tuesday born" .  I'm now getting a Ugandan companion. which is pretty good. We have to go and pick him up on Wednesday. I m pretty excited that now i have to show him around. i also now have to start all the lessons which is wonderful. I haven't had any thing about him hopefully he will be a good guy. 

   Guess what we had on Wednesday last week for dinner? One of the church member prepared a cat for us. Which was nice of him! to me i was like there is no way i can eat cat. But then i decided to try it. Guess what? CAT is so so good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it is way better than a dog meat. At first i wanted to try it but then i took like five pieces. Maybe even you guys can try to eat cat or the dog you will see how sweet it is. 

This was so cool yesterday i and my companion we were walking down the street then we found this crazy man holding the dirty book of Mormon i even wanted to talk to him But then my companion was like no. it was really amazing to me. In my mind i was think where he found the book of Mormon.Well maybe he will try to read it.Haha

I love and Miss you so much form the Moon and Back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My birthday was pretty nice we went to do a service for someone which was cleaning the chicken pup and weeding in the garden. My mission coup also were there to help in the garden. 

Next Wednesday is the transfers. very body is scared to live their areas. i had a interview with the mission president and he asked me whether i like my companion and said to him that we are really good friends. Then he told me that you know you can't stay together forever and i said Yes. so now my companion thinks that i might train a new missionary. which will be awesome!

 How is Uganda for you guys? how is Benson and Whitney finding Uganda? How is the kids at St Judy doing?  I'm doing great here! This week was really good. I and my Companion we are have be looking for people to teach for last two months. We have  been praying to the Lord so that we will be able to find someone who is interested in our massage. Lost week the Lord started answering our players. Every day we were going out we also got somebody to teach. We now have many investigators to teach. The miracle happened on Friday when i and my companion had the gospel conversation with this one guy . He got so interested in our massage and he wanted us to teach him the next day. we went to him and the first thing he said to us was i really wanna be baptized. because i know i have made many bad things  against God. I asked him whether he want to follow the example of Jesus Christ and repent of his sins and be baptized. he said yes!!! After i looked at my companion he was so happy. Even me i was very happy. 

Hey Mather Guess what? I'm so sorry to say this especially on my mission. So on firday  I and my champanion we were sitting down waiting for the people to have a gospel conversation with them. So this one Ghanian cute girl was passing by so i decided to G.C  her. she was very cute i and my companion we asked her where she stays so that we can teach her. then she gave us the directions to her home. When we went there we found her grandma making fufu . She told us that their are busy. so far that is the cutest girl i have seen here in Ghana. i love you so much Mother!!!! thank you for the good work you are doing to help the kids in Africa. Tell my brother Benson to have fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That was really cool that we had to talk on the phone. i am glad that yesterday was mother day. i also called father and he was doing wonderful. he told me that he is going to send me a letter.

I did walk up at 10:40. my companion walk  at 11:0. i can't tell you after talking to you guys on the phone. i really started missing home. i did send  three letters two for you one for the grandparents. i just talked to Emma on the email about my exams. he was also pretty sad about it. then he told me that he can can sit the S.4 again for me while i am on my mission.So that i can get good results. i not know whether it is right. i truly love you mother!!!! happy Mother's day again!!!

HI mom,

how are things going for you? I am really excited to talk to you on Sunday. I am going to call you maybe in the morning because we have to watch the conference. I  haven't got the package but i am really excited to receive it. Today we had a soccer  and basketball game as the zone. which was pretty good. For food we went to the member and had Banku and periwinkle mixed with fish. At first i was like i am not gonna eat periwinkle because it was not looking good. The elders told me that if you love the people here in Ghana you have to eat their food. If you don't eat their food they will not like you or invite you to teach them. Even on Friday  i was not feeling good because we had to walk four milers to the place called Komfueku .it was pretty hot. Even got a ache on that day.  I and my companion we know have two areas to teach. i love you.
