When it Rains it Pours...Literally! (...in Blessings too!) Oct. 30, 2017

Well, I've made it halfway through my training. People say the first 6 months of your mission are the slowest and if this is slow then the next 18 months will feel like 2 weeks. I love my mission and I love Ghana. It's been getting hotter and hotter everyday and super humid, but on saturday it rained super hard. It started out really hot in the morning then it just randomly started raining harder than I've ever seen. Within 2 min the streets were full of running water and we got super wet. To get around we were walking through water and trying to get around the really big streams of water but there was just too much. It rained like that for about 2 hours and just stopped and it got hot again. When it's hot after it rains its super humid and we didn't really dry off cause we got super sweaty. Luckily that morning I took all my clothes off the lines and brought them inside, but Elder Hess didn't and his stuff got wet and some fell off the line into the mud. Other than that its been a pretty normal week. We have 8 people with baptismal dates.  I've really started to pick up on the local dialect. And as they say here Ubishiai (until we meet)
