Week 28--The Liberian snap
Hey guys! So this week has been really crazy.. like things are so
different here in the ghetto of Brooklyn Park. So the biggest miracle
this week is we got a date set with a guy named Dawhon and his son
Stevion and hopefully his girlfriend too when we can meet with her.
The baptism is clear in April because there are going to be some
things that they will have to over come. Anyways let me start from
when I was leaving Red Wing.
Monday and Tuesday was just a lot of packing and saying bye to people.
So I have a lot of pictures from that! The two hardest goodbyes were
the Berniers and Elder Huntley. I said bye to the Berniers Tuesday
night and then on Wednesday we drove to Lakeville to pick up Elder
Moore. Then I went with another Elder up to Bloomington. I talked with
a bunch of other missionaries like Elder Magleby and Elder Araoz and
Elder Bono! Then I met my new companion Elder Harper and he is a cool
guy and we get along well. We rode up to Brooklyn Park with the Duluth
Zone Leaders because we share a car with the Shingle Creek Elders and
we only have 400 miles a months and Elder Jorgensen is training Elder
Meade in Shingle Creek so they had to have the car. And Elder
Jorgensen says Hi!!!!!
Well Brooklyn Park has been interesting. Haha, we live in the ghetto
and we hear sirens like all the time. Everybody we teach is from
Liberia. They are really cool people, but hard to understand. African
food is really spicy too.. like a little too spicy. Oh and they do
this really cool thing where when you shake their hand you do this
really cool handshake. I will have to show you in a video sometime
because I can't explain it. We have been super busy this week and have
had a lot of lessons. We had a date set when we got here but we gave
it to the Sister missionaries. So this area has been fun because I see
other missionaries every day. The Shingle Creek Elders, Elder
Jorgensen and Elder Meade, live in the same apartment complex as us
and they come over for breakfast, lunch and then come over and hang
out before bed. And there are Sister Missionaries, Sister Fuchs and
Sister Calchera, who work in the Elm Creek and Shingle Creek ward and
we see them every day too. So that has been nice since my last two
areas I barely ever saw missionaries other than my companion.
Well I have to go soon so I can talk more about the area next week,
but I basically said everything. I will talk to y'all next week!
