Haha from Benin

Bonjour

Wow another week has flown by, by next week i might be done with my mission, thats going to be a sad day. Well this week has been very interesting. Alot of wierd random unexplained stuff has happened. Well to get off with the bad news that this week one of the missionaries might be going home, due to mental depression problems, the kids is really weird and all of the sudden he goes into these depression pits and doesnt stop for a long time. I dunno I hope he doesnt go but, its a good possiblity. Well with that out of the way I can go to bigger and better things. So this week was interesting one alot of cool experiences have happened. Like one day we were way far away teaching danic and he was occupied for sometime so to we went and visited some other investigators close but none of them were there and we are not supposed top proyslete that far out right now and so the stadium and there were alot of people going into it and so we decided to try to get in for free. and we did and it was a soccer match between the benin national team and the president of Benin and his cabinet. Sure we got patted down by huge army dudes with ak-47 strapped to their backs. But we saw the president of the country play soccer for a little bit and it was pretty cool, in a stadium of 30,000 there were three white people, we were 2.
Also this week on sunday was an amazing experience. so during the week we met Frankie and his story is that he was once an investigator long ago and never came to church but recently, before talking to us he started like blessing his food, saying his prayers, and reading the the book of mormon, then one day he saw us walking down the street and called us over and we are now teaching him. When he told us this earlier that day I read the scripture in 2 Nephi 32:8 and it was , BAM here it is in Live action for ya! and he has came to church for the very first time!!! I just hope he continues to progress!
Also the missionaires got invited over to a real african b-day party and it was huge! Lots of people and lots of amazing food! But the worse part is that we had leave before we ate cause of an activity we planned at the church. We had a lot of games so that we could invite our investigators and members so that they could mingle and get to know each other better, it was really cool! well I gotta get going but thanks for the support and have an amazing week and remember who you are! love ya!

love elderly
