Its the coolest thing to see people living the gospel and starting to make changes in their lives that bring true happiness!

Hey Mom,

Yeah the weeks are going fast huh. Well being in a tri-panionship has been okay. Its not the first timeI have been in a threesome so I am used to it. We went on splits three times this week and it allowed us to work pretty normal for most of the week. We had some interesting times trying to reunite from our splits, because one of our phones was broken, but all worked out. Elder Krofuah has received a new companion, so we are all evened out in Teshie. Hopefully this will be the first time things are pretty normal for me in Ghana. I am super excited to work this week, because we wont have any distractions, and we can really focus on helping people.

New Years was fun I guess... everyone loves to light off big big fireworks all night and go to church  and play very loud music. So that night I woke up about every hour from the noise. During Christmas and New Years we have seen some favor from the members feeding us, hopefully that will continue!

We are having a baptism on the 17th of January. Its the coolest thing to see people living the gospel and starting to make changes in their lives that bring true happiness. I really rejoice with those people. When we step out of ourselves and take steps to righteousness, even if they are stumbling steps like a baby learning to walk, we eventually find balance in our lives and a love for God that did not exist before and the blessings of righteousness and repentance are huge. A new direction comes into their live, new hope, new hppiness and stability, and we can have that each week if we prepare ourselves to take the sacrament.

I am reading in the end of Helaman right now, but I have taken a small break to prepare for a mission tour with Elder Curtis. He asked us to read in Mosiah and 3 Nephi.
