Whenever you surprise a person in Liberia or scare them you tell
them, "Don't tune, don't tune mah man." Kind of like, don't get afraid
or something you know. So I know I didn't send a letter last week but
don't tune my man everything is okay.
Last
week in the café the internet stopped working and then the power went
out and it was getting late so we just went back to the apartment and I
didn't finish what I had started but that's okay. I'm not dead. IN FACT,
I have some news!
I have been transferred and
I'm already in my new area of Thinker's village. I am now in a threesome
or a tripanionship with Elder Mineer from Utah and Elder Eguko from
Nigeria. I just got here today so I really don't know too much about the
area or anything but it is really close to my first area so I will
probably see a lot of the people that I used to teach before so that's
kind of fun!
I was definitely a little sad to
leave the branch in Upper Caldwell because I really began to love the
branch and all the progress that we were making and the people that we
were teaching. However, I am really excited to start in this new area
and get to know a new branch. I guess I had to allow someone else to
enjoy Upper Caldwell branch at some point. A lot of people were sad, or
at least acted like they were sad when I told them that I would not be
there again. I'm sure they'll be fine!
So
these past two weeks have gone so fast! We had zone conference and some
trainings that have really helped me to strive to be a better
missionary. Elder Obasohan and myself were really working hard to teach a
lot of different people and expand the area and missionary work. This
gone Saturday
we had a baptism for two people combined with 3 children of record
which was a real struggle but eventually turned out alright. I have
confidence that the branch and the missionaries will take care of them.
This
morning when the couples came to pick me up I realized I have acquired
too many things... People have just given me some things and I have yet
to get rid of some others but small small. When they took me to my new
area they went a super long way because they needed to drop off another
missionary somewhere else but it was the coolest drive ever. It was like
we were just straight in the jungle and everything was beautiful and
green. Africa is dope. I would attach pictures but I forgot my usb in
the apartment so next week.
Other than that I
don't think there is really anything else to talk about... Everything is
going fine and I'm sure that this area is going to be really sweet.
Both of my companions are cool and I'm excited to serve with them. I'm
healthy and happy and love all of you!
Much love,
Elder Bush
