The Benin Story‏

I dunno if the Benin story is as good as the westside story, but alot of stuff has happened this week. So where to begin? Lets see, well transfers was this week, I am still with my frenchman Elder Foucher for another six weeks. I am really stoked about that, we get along really well and my french really really improves cause of him! We had Zone confernece this week and it was pretty good.

This week was kind of a slow week cause of Zone Confrence. We did a lot of tracking as usual cause our cartier is DEAD! So tracking this week was interesting, we were walking back to our apartment in the dark and someone passing us started chanting Joseph Smith, Joseph Smith. It was really interesting and quite funny to the point I started laughing, i dunno if that was the best thing to do...  Then later we were walking along and We felt prompted to talk to this one guy in particular, as we walked up he called he us the 'mormons' I havent heard that named in so long! It turns out that he is from the Congo and knez alot about the mormons. We have started to teaching him.OHH I almost forgot!!

This week Danic is getting baptised!  I am really excited for this one cause I am really close with him and the changes he has made in his life is just incredible! the gospel is simply incredible! I have been reading alot of old genreal conference talks and man, i read one called, SUNDAY WILL COME by joseph b.wirthlin that was incredible! Just the sincereity and the simplictiy of the doctrine and the comfort that comes from that! One person we founs just had his niece die that was six years old and it was very hard for him. We shared a little about the ressurection and how children are automatically saved, and one day he can live with here forever and this is thanks to jesus christ! The spirit was so strong, the gospel is simply amazing and simply TRUE! I know it is!

I got to thank my aunt carrie cause I recieved my first package this week! Peanut butter has never tasted sooo good! Along with redvines!! Thank oyu so much! I am way to spoiled sometimes, but this doesnt mean you have to stop! I also recieved letters from dAVID THAT WERE OVER THREE MONTHS OLD!! THANKS TO Benin mail! haha


oh and a little side noteI got robbed this week! yes my camera got stolenn along with all my pics. Im alittle depressed because of that cause I had some really good ones, and I found out the Butch died this week. MAMan I thought he would last a little longer but life goes on. Well things are good in Benin hope everything is amazing with all of you! until next week I love ya and remember who you are!!!
