I don't have much to talk about today, this week flew by and this is the last week of the transfer!! This Saturday is gonna be great, we are having a mission-wide conference with Elder Stevenson (one of the 12 modern-day apostles) and Elder Uceda from the Quorum of Seventy! I haven't seen some of my old companions in a while so I'm excited to see them there, but hearing from an apostle is super exciting and I'll let y'all know more about it next week!! So this week was really exciting because, as you saw, Kelsey was married and baptized this past week (but she didn't make it to church so she's getting confirmed next week haha)!! Her husband, Matt, has always been gone whenever we would teach her so it was my first time meeting him and he was one of the nicest guys I've talked to in Lexington! And Kelsey showed me and Elder Clark how to make Oreo balls when we helped her make them for her wedding, and they are deserts fallen from Heaven!!!
So this week didn't go how we thought it would haha, we met a woman named Kibbibi yesterday and she's really nice! She talked to a member at the place she works and she said she wanted to talk to missionaries, so we stopped by yesterday and talked to her. She wanted to meet with us, her kids want to meet with us, but her husband does NOT like Mormons so he said we couldn't come back. As my old buddy Elder Haws put it, Africans are super stubborn. Very stubborn. But with God's help, things will work out in the end, it's just a trial of our faith like Moroni talks about in Ether 12:6. We may not understand why things happen the way they do, but they do. So we should just get over it, suck it up, and look for a chance to learn from our trials like it was brought up in General Conference.
Well I'm out of time, Love y'all,
Elder Crow
