New Transfer

Hello Everyone! 

 

 

This week has felt very long but also short so just like every other week haha. 

 

 

Last Monday we had a district activity and it was nice! We went to a members house and their house is very nice and was able to hang out with all my district members.

 

 

Tuesday we had our last district council of the transfer and we all said our goodbyes to the people leaving elsewhere. Tuesday night we had a nice lady we met with and her name is Beatrice. She schooled in London and that's where she first heard of us but now she's back home so she has more time to focus on what we teach which is cool!

 

 

Wednesday was interesting to say the least. Wednesday was transfer day so all the new people were coming in and old people leaving. We helped our zone leaders out because we are pretty close to the stake Center. Anyways, when we were all done, we started leaving and zone leaders got in a taxi and headed off. We get a call about 5 min later from the zone leaders saying they just got t-boned by another taxi lol. So we ran over and helped them out. Nobody was hurt luckily but a crazy experience to say the least. And that's not even all of the crazy for that day. Wednesday night I'm riding my bike back to our apartment from getting some fried rice and all of the sudden I see this huge guy with hands the size of my head start coming towards me saying "you f****** stupid boy I'm going to slap you!" Luckily we biked away in time but was scary haha. Turns out though he was just very drunk because we saw him a couple days later and he didn't say anything. 

 

 

Thursday not too much happened. We taught a institute class for legon branch because the teacher was out so that was interesting. Good people all around though.

 

 

Friday there wasn't much either. Had a nice member meal though and just talked with people all around. 

 

 

Saturday was same as Friday except no member meal. We did meat with a women named Olivia and her son Austin who said they want to get baptised which is very cool. So we will continue teaching them and help them get there!

 

 

Sunday was good too. Found out I'm giving a talk next Sunday so thats fun. We went contacting with the whole Legon Branch on Sunday too though which was so cool! Only for like an hour but we got so many contacts. Legon branch is some cool people.

 

 

That's it for this week. Was an interesting week for sure and I'm grateful for the experiences I'm getting. Very very grateful for the friends I've made along the way too. Especially hotdog. Hope you all have a grate week. And email me on how life is! How you all doing?

 

 

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 ...
