hey sorry i didn't write last week, i was sitting on a bus all day. i was dropped off late monday night in my new area which is the Kayole ward just out side of nairobi, kinda out by the airport to the south east of downtown. So my time in kisumu ended with a bang, we had nine baptisms last saturday and i was asked to do seven of them. it was so cool to just dunk people one after the other. following the baptism, the branch had an anniversary for the second year as a branch. we four elders turned the party into a water fight and entertained everyone as we all got soaked through. Elder Jackson, the black one, got thrown in the baptismal tank! i think everyone else got the bucket. its a good thing the sun is hot in kisumu cuz we were all dry in a matter of a couple hours. sunday was amazing, we had a nice and short testimony meeting after the confirmation of all 9 of them people who were baptized. this whole week i've been working with my new companion who is Elder Jimu, he's from Harare, Zimbabwe, he's been in the field for six weeks now. He's a cool kid, i like him and we get along good. We live with two other elders E. Frost (same district in Arusha) and E. Mutaduba (who i trained last year) This morning we went into the office to check some paper work for my trip home. it's weird how those papers are getting put together so soon, kinda scary to think about. oh when i went to that leadership conference in Eldoret i got the package that you sent, the one with the ranch, reese's and calls in there. thanks for sending that :)
well i hope that you have a great week and that all goes well, try not to get flooded! if nothing else then follow the prophet and build and ark. :) haha i love you guys, have a great week
