Solid Week

Hello Everyone! As said in my subject line, it has been a pretty solid week.

 

 

Tuesday we had a good district council and had some food afterwards. Later that day we taught our good friend Felix again. He seems to be enjoying the lessons but we feel he is scared when we teach around his pastor because he never really wants us to come when he is there. So we will continue to teach with him and see how it goes.

 

 

Wednesday we did a lot of tracting and finding new people. Not too much success that day but we were able to meet with our Muslim friend Fattah. He is always interesting to teach because we both learn a lot from each other. We teach our lesson and then he tells us the Muslim point of view. He also knows like Hebrew and Arabic and English so he is well knowledgeable. Now we don't know if he will ever get baptized anytime soon but we hope we are planting a good seed.

 

 

Thursday we did more tracting throughout the day but in the evening we went to institute which is like a scripture class with the Legon Branch and that was pretty cool. Some cool people in there and the teacher was good.

 

 

Friday not much happened. This week we did a lot of finding because nobody really wanted to meet with us for appointments so was a long week.

 

 

Saturday and Sunday we had a great Stake Conference. The speakers were good and something different that happened here that doesn't really happen in America is that all the wards and branches in the stake came to the stake Center. So let's just say there were a lot of people there!

 

 

This Tuesday we will have our Zone Conference and this Friday and Saturday I will be going on exchange so this week also seems pretty good!

 

 

Thanks for all the support everyone! Till next time. Oh and also Happy Valentines Day!

 

 

Best,

Elder Busschau.

The Last *Full* Week

Image
Yep, you read it correctly. This upcoming week is my last Monday to Sunday on mission. The week after I go home. Fly home that is. What an exhilarating time to be in. I am excited. But till that day comes, I'm here working and putting my last finishing touches in Ghana. The work is sweet, divine, and no where near my own work, but I'm here helping it.  This past week we've had some interesting experiences. We met an old African American women who was anti and didn't like white people. Was sad to see, someone so lost believing anything she sees online and giving no time or thought to the actual truth. Where truth is the spirit manifests itself, during that conversation there was no spirit, and not an ounce of happiness from her face. The gospel I Share brings joy to my heart everytime and to others it is shared with, as they embrace it. Please remember this when going around sifting through truth. Doctrine and Covenants 93:36, "The glory of God is intelligence, or, ...

The Home Stretch

I'm just going to say sorry right now that these last couple emails are probably going to be short because there's just a lot of preparation going on and just a lot of teaching, nothing big is really happening right now. So with that... I had a good exchange on Wednesday with some Elders. I went with Elder Miles from Utah. He has a lot of potential.  We did a lot of finding this week with trying to find new people to teach. We will always see some funny sign boards or some weird name of a place. This week I found New York! Pic below. We also just went up some mountains trying to find people. Even the mountain people need the gospel and ordinances. Good times.  Now we are up to Busschau 3 - Rat (we have found out that these are RATS) 0. That's what they get for peeing on my clothes.  So I have 2 more pdays after today. This time in three weeks I'll be in my house. That's insane. Oh also my Homecoming talk is on August 27th. Just so you know. So the day after I get ho...

Busschau 2 - Mouse 0

Yeah we have a mouse problem. Let's just say these little guys don't live long when I see them. I can send pictures If asked for. Hope all of you are doing well! I've had a pretty good week. We had our first interviews with President Beeson. It was wonderful, I'm very grateful for his inspiration and advice. I can feel he was truly sent to this mission for a purpose.  This week we were able to put one of our good friends on date for baptism. Her name is Sister Vida and she is a mother to 5 children. She has been being taught by missionaries for long time and finally I get the privilege to be the missionary who will witness her baptism (hopefully). She has shown lots of faith and we've had some great spiritual lessons with her. Hopefully she will keep to her commitments and she will be baptized on the 19th August. I'm so grateful for the opportunity to see people come closer to Jesus Christ. You can truly see the light that shines brighter within them.  There is ...
