Traveling to Accra this past weekend was especially fun
because we got to go to the temple! It
was absolutely beautiful and a great experience. Because there are so few temples in Africa,
Ghana is lucky to have one.
After going to the temple, we spent many many hours in the
largest market in Accra. Blocks of bargaining! “I give you good price”, “I have something
special for you”, “Oh beautiful Obroni, come”, “Sweet baby girl, come”, and on
and on…but the game of bargaining is very fun!
And standing in the block of fabric shop after shop in a small alley I
thought I had died and gone to heaven.
We were also able to go to the beach again! Or should I say fried at the beach. But, we had a great time playing futbol,
swimming in the ocean, collecting shells, getting buried in the sand, and even
building a sandcastle with some children.
At church on Sunday we happened to run into a couple
missionary from Utah State! They were so
kind and invited us over to dinner. It
was really fun to meet them. Even here
in Ghana it’s a small world and the Lord is blessing us with miracles! They are actually coming out to Abomosu with
some students in May so we are very excited for them to experience the
bush!
To finish off the trip, we welcomed Mama Abu back from her
travel to the US!!! We are so so happy
to have finally met Margaret. She is the
sweetest lady and her and Stephen together just make me smile. They truly are the most charitable individuals.
Here’s to the last week of being in my teens!
