Zone Conference & Transfer News

Well the week was good like always. Looking back a lot happened this week! So we had Zone conference with Elder Cardon on Wednesday. He called me in to be the first one to be interviewed that was a little scary. But it was really good he is a nice guy. He just asked me about the work and what i thought of the new mission president and then he told me that he can see I'm a good missionary and he said you have very clear honest eyes i like that. haha i don't know what that means but i guess its good. Funny story I got thieved again i guess Staci and i don't have very good luck. So every morning someone cooks breakfast we all take turns. so they cook while the rest of us shower and get dressed. So after they finish cooking we all come into the kitchen then we bless the food and then go to our various places and eat. well... while we were blessing the food this time. This man came into our apartment normally before you enter someones house here you yell KNOCK KNOCK or you yell KONG KONG KONG. But none of us heard that and so then i walk out of the kitchen and there was a man coming out of my room and he said hello I'm from the national power company you need to put this sticker on your meter and he handed me a sticker and then i said ok. And i said so weten make you de enter me os so? (basically why the crap did you just walk into my apartment). And he said well i didn't know anyone was home and all this stupid stuff and i just blew him off and then he left really fast and i thought well that was weird. So then an hour later I went to go take my phone off of the charger so i could call some investigators and it was gone! so i asked some of the elders if they have my phone and they said no and then we realized oh crap that guy must have stole it. And he was long gone. It was a brand new phone to they had just given it to me. So currently i don't have a phone and it is the biggest pain. Anyways also we received transfer news last night. My companion brother bangura gets to go back to his house i hope he enjoyed his 2 week mission. My new companion is Elder Tims from Snow flake Arizona. He has been on mission for a few months. So he will be coming to me on Wednesday it should be good. He has been proselyting in central Freetown so i know him pretty well already. He is very nice i think he will be a big help to me in this branch. But other then that not much else is new. Christiana's dad died again so i haven't seen her for a few days because she traveled to go bury him. I guess he really did die this time. But the work is still going good. Keep up the prayers.
