I AM GOING TO THE BUSH!!!!!!!

Hello, everyone! 

This week was great! this week felt like it was two seconds long.. it is insane! i had a great week tho! i got my package finally! hahahah the flickin chickens are hilarious! and the candy is well-appreciated! thank you so much! also i played the baseball game with elder Broadhead a ton! we played a world series, and i swept him of course.. he needs to get better closers. i would always come back in the ninth inning and win. lol

Missionary work is going so well. we have some great new investigators, and we committed another to baptism this month on the 23rd! i love the people in kasoa! sadly i am leaving tomorrow. i woke up this morning with some missed calls from the zone leaders, and a text with transfer news. I AM GOING TO THE BUSH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hahahahahahahaha i am going to unknown territory a.k.a Winneba! my new companion is Elder Sakala from Zimbabwe. he has only been on mission for 5 going on 6 months hahaha just a couple of greenies in the bush. it will be quite the adventure. i am not sure if i will be white-washing the area, or what. i heard a rumor that they will stick us with cape coast missionaries for a week to learn the area and then just go for it, but im not sure. we are taking the whole zone from the cape coast mission. and it is huge! 32 missionaries and none of us have been there before. it is going to be such an amazing experience. my new area is called Ansaful. haha sounds cool i guess. hahah so today i have been busy packing and getting all of my stuff ready to leave tomorrow morning. its gonna be SWEET!!!! 

Anyways not too much to talk about. but this week will be interesting to see new land never before seen by Accra west missionaries. heck ya. 
glad to see all of the pictures and that all is well. miss you and love you so much!!!
