Dear Family and Friends,

This week has been a good week for my companion and I, we have been working hard to have baptisms this week but we felt that we should push them forward to this week. We are hoping to have 4 this week which is super exciting.

We are working hard here and continuing to be blessed by the Lord in the things that we do. I have come to see the small blessings in my life each day as I search for them. We have found some awesome people this week. One, his name is Martin and he has a desire to follow God and wants to know how he can know which church is God's church. We are working with him and he is doing amazing.

This week Elder Tupou finished his training and it has been really fun to be able to train him and be with him. Lucky me I will still be with him for 6 more weeks. We have grown close in this time and is truly one of my brothers now. It seems like every one in my apartment is.

Well I want to share some things I have thought about this week. When I go to do interviews in Kwabeng which is some how like 45 minutes away we take a taxi and when we are coming back it gives me time to think about things and to just kind of relax. I do a lot of this thinking lately when I have time and it really helps me to relax and overcome challenges. I was thinking this past week about the story of the young Indian boy and his grandfather and they talk about how there is a battle of 2 wolfs going on inside all of us. One wolf is good and one wolf is bad and whoever wins is the wolf we feed. I have thought about what this means and have come to see that all of us have a version inside
of us God intended us to be and all we need to do is what he asks to become what he has made us to become. 

I know that was somehow random and a lot but that was one thing I wanted to share. I love all you guys. stay safe and have a good week.

Dear Family and Friends,

Elder Reid and i had a great week this week. Unfortunately we had some concerns to resolve with our investigators we were planning on baptizing, but we should have a baptismal service this Saturday. We have plenty of people to teach and we continue to find new investigators. We had the opportunity to provide service for sister Gyaba, we fetched water for her and her family. We also brought her the sacrament again this Sunday after church. We started teaching a man named Commander 1,  he is very good and will be baptized very soon, we are helping him with his problem with the word or wisdom. My son Elder Reid will finish his training this week.
Have a nice week.

Elder Antwi loves you all.
