My American Friends

My dear friends. There are a lot of things separating us from each other but I think the biggest one besides that very large mass of water is the fact that I will now consider myself to be Liberian. Sure, it may be a little premature and you may be asking yourself why I am even saying this. I am asking myself the same question but I just feel like I am part of this country now and nothing seems out of the ordinary any more. Also, nothing too eventful happened this week so I needed something to say.

It's been 7 months and I'm happy to say that it has not felt like that much time. This week went by so fast and made me feel like I am just an ordinary citizen here. I miss nice things from home but nothing seems to phase me anymore if that makes sense.

Nonetheless there is still much more to see and do in this place! This week we had 2 people baptized that we have been teaching. Bro Melvin and Zayzay. Bro Melvin is an older man around 40 and we had to go in town to have his interview because of some mistakes he has made in his past, but his interview went well. President Carlson was really impressed and said that he will be a great leader in the church one day even. I love our mission President so much. That guy is so cool he just makes serving a mission really enjoyable.

This week I had a little hard time because I don't sleep too much. My companion snores all night and I'm just busy sometimes but I get enough to survive so that's all I ask for.

Oh, I was the baptist on Saturday.

 And one day I will explore the giant termite hills that you see around Africa. They're really cool. Not too much else has happened, but we are working hard and seeing some success so hopefully we don't die.

Love you all and I'm sorry this email was boring next week something might happen I'll let you know.
