Naphwedea) that is "how are you" in the KRU language, I have been learning this language and I talk it with the locals it helps a lot when we are introducing someone to the gospel, everyone is shocked when they see a white man speaking their native tongue, hahahaha I love it. Anyways this week has gone great we taught a lot of people have a bunch more investigators, I dont know where they keep coming from but when we need more investigators they just pop up out of no where! :) We had another baptism this week Sister Tracy Nagbe it was nice to see here light up after being confirmed in service on Sunday, she was introduced to the church once before but just cause her friend didnt come get her from her house to go to church she didnt go for five years. Finally we have helped her in a lot of things in her life and she is now active and has a strong testimony, definitely a great week. I am trying to stay healthy lol, Rice rice rice rice everyday every night, but we are trying to mix things up a little bit. I try to get some chicken in me sometime during each week, thats the thing I notice right now is lack of meat in my body, but its alright the fruits make up for the lack of energy :) All of my converts are still active, Im glad I have put only those who will follow Jesus Christ their best in this great church. I haven received a letter or package for a month and a half but sometimes it takes a while it just depends im glad you are getting my letters :) President Kirkham is here in LIB he arrived last night, he is now officially the boss of us Missionaries haha. I'm super excited for him to be here, things are going to be super good now and Liberia is going to improve greatly with a leader here full time. Yeah Elder Widdison is such a Great Missionary and Probably one of my closest friends here. Yeah his family will be there the end of august to go four wheeling on the Beaver and Monroe Mountains it is supper sweet that there is someone else in Liberia that Knows what hoovers is, it is so sweet. Actually it makes me quite happy, me And Elder Widdison have so much in common, and just plan on him being around our neck of the woods a lot when I get home. Im Glad the Temple was great, I'm Glad you are enjoying it with out me there :) its great I love the Temple so much I cant tell you with words what it means to me.
