Well.... I didnt lie...exactly‏

Umm this week, well tomorrow morning at five I will be leaving Togo and flying to another country, Côte d'Ivoire, it will be the first time a white missionary has been there since the Civil War... Im pretty excited and disappointed! I found out yesterday moring that I was leaving, I was pretty bummed cause I love it here and had it set that I was going to be here for x-mas, but i guess He has other plans for me... It was fast and testimony meeting so I got to render my testimony, and dang it, it was like my farewell, a lot of crying, I feel like I am leaving home again, saying goodbye to everyone for the last time, it was heart wrenching... I cant believe that i am leaving... I took a big photo with my family, the branche... I have to come back, there is no way I couldnt... So tomorrow morning i will leave with Elder Carter and we will go to Benin for a couple of day to search a vista, we cant search one here cause there is no Côte d'Ivoire embassy, so I guess I get to see some people over there and say good bye to them, it ahs been 14 months ssince I was last there! Its a pretty unique mission ici, any transfer you can switch between three countries! And this week was an awesome week! a lot of non actives that we have been trying to motivate came, one of our investigators baby was blessed, Euro. Papa Tepe is incredible! When we came out his house he was dressed up in priesthood, he didnt know why, but we planned earlier that day to ask him to come visit an investiogator, and he was prepared to go and rendered a huge testimony at this guy, Papa is the best!!! I dunno everything is clicking... this area is by far the best area now in the mission, the members, friends and everyone are incredible, i cant imagine leaving...so I dont know where I am going in côte d'Ivoire hopefully into the mountains!!! that would be the best for me... We have a lot of new people like Ama and their famille, Assou, Amassogblé,Kodjo,Better, Kokouvi, Therance, Rubin, Gael, Florance, Akoffi, Daniel, Wahib, Souria, Mawuko, Mawuli, José, Essi, Diane, Jenni, Bella. Too many to name!! I dunno was ready to leave until after x-mas. anyways hope all is well at home, Elder stucki plays x-mas music when we return, still isnt any signe of x-mas, maybe there will be over there, the Ahuhatumn came this weeken, means cool weather until i leave!!! The hot season was killer this time, wow even the lizards were feeling it, it rained ALOT saturday all day, HARD. anyways when I figure out a mailing address I will let you know, love you all and remember who you are!!

Love tons et avec beaucoup des bissous,
Elder Lee
