Félicitations Amanda!! Half scholarship that great!!! I havnt thought a lot about school, I try to avoid that image right now, i kinda have the idea to go there for a semester and then see if I want to transfer of stay.ill pray about it when I get home cause right now we need to be absolutely focused! So this week brought MORE changes, so one nite I was supposed to do a transfer with our district leader, Elder Bukassa, so we left after CEP, all the way to Port-Bouet, we got there about 21h30. We stood around waiting for them to come, they never came, my comp and I dont know the area, he ahd and 'idea' where it was, so we went searching, it was a wierd experience, we ended up near the bouchery with malisians telling us to come and eat their meat because the name Obama was painted on their sign! We never found them and returned to the apartment, to our suprise two new elders and president waiting for us. So Elder Phillips and Elder Gnohohi are in our area, so for the last two months I ahve been gereing two wards, Cocody and Riviera, but now we are in Cocody. And we have done the most work in Riviera, so I get a small goute of what life as a missionary in America is like, all we do is porte a porte in rich apartements complexs. Its very different... havnt had much luck yet but we gotta have faith! The thing is though, we meet a lot of.. interesting... people! Much different that the rest of my mission! Hopefully things will work out, they always do! The one thing that really deranges me is when people try to talk to you through the door, they always ask who is there? and we always respond, ITS US! A lot of people just HAVE to see 'us'! It will build character i guess, He wants to see if I will be faithful to the VERY end even when it is difficult!! I will! The truth has really been restored, doing the porte a porte just strenghtens my testimony that really what I ahve is TRUTH , and everyone wants to have it but they are so blinded by their own pride and ignorance that it really disgusts me! Be grateful for what He has given us and try to share it with others! The book of Mormon is truly another witness of Him, and Joseph Smith was called divinely to brings to pass the work of the last days!!! Anyways love you all so much and remember who you are!!!!
