African Christmas

Hello,

Wow what a wonderful Holiday fun filled week this has been. On Wednesday we went to Belliar Park (aka the mission office) and started practicing for the program that we were going to perform at Conoucht Hospital. We were waiting for the Bo elder also to arrive. We then saw the mission van pull up and ran out to say hi to the Bo elders. When Elder Kargbo and I saw each other I ran and tackled him it was awesome except for he is huge and i'm small so it didnt work very well. It was way cool to see him though. I also met another elder who came on the mission right after me and we had never met his name is Elder Ellsworth he is now one of my new favorite people. Also some of my favorite people to hang out with were the Zimbabweans. There is one name Elder Chaparadza and he came up to me and said you know i have a girlfriend waiting for me and i kept telling everyone that i was probably the trunkiest elder on the mission and he said everyone always tells me there is no way i can be trunkier then elder Lancaster ha ha so he was like its nice to finally meet the legend. He and i got along really well it was fun. So Tuesday we had the program at the hospital it was really cool. Then we went and played some football (soccer for you Americans) and i was trying to hide from president Roggia the whole time so he wouldn't make me play because i suck so bad but he kept making me play. Then one of the members of the church fed all of the missionaries it was awesome! Then the next day we went to the mission home up in hillstation each district put on a little skit it was really funny. Probably the best one was the Sewa Rd district the did Zerahemla Idol it was so funny. Elder Kargbo was the big black guy from American idol and all he said was YA DOG YA YA DOG YA YA YA YA DOG! ha ha it was so funny. Then Elder Eyinda that is my mtc he played paula abdul and wore this wig he really looked like a girl it was so funny. For ours we did a reenactment of one of our district meetings but we switched our name tags and basically made fun of each other it was alot of fun. One of the skits they made fun of pres Roggia it was way funny. Anyways way good times. Then we watched 2 movies. The first one was Amazing Grace. I had never seen it before it was way good. It even talks about the slaves from Sierra Leone so that was cool. Then we watched one called Fire proof it was also way good. at all of the lovey dovey sceens everyone would be like where is elder Lancaster he should close his eyes so he doesn't get home sick ha ha. It was a lot of fun. Then we had our Christmas program that night at belliar park. It was really good. We didn't teach to many lessons this week because of the crazy schedule. Everything is going really good. I heard that some of you sent me packages thank you so much! They haven't come yet but I'm sure they will soon. I think they check to post office on Tuesdays or something so maybe they are sitting there. I love you and thank you all for the support

Love Elder Lancaster
