THREE MONTH MARK - Well, it has been three months since we entered the MTC.         The time has really flown.  We have been          extremely busy, so our blog has suffered.  It        takes so long to download the pictures that it       takes us several hours to do the blog,and it seens we do not have the time,or are too tied to get it   done, SORRY.  We are having a great mission   with so many experiences and wonderful things  happening.  We have been to all of the Branches in our area for Suinday meetings (5) and have been to many of the Distract meetings with the Missionaries.  We have been to Accra to pick up new Missionaries and we go again on the 15 of  Oct. to meet 11 new Missionaries that are            arriving.  We have 3 that will be going home, so that will give us 107 Missionaries in our mission.  We went with the Asay's one Saturday to a members home.  Her name              is Alice.  They help her make bread each              Saturday.  That is how she makes her living.        This is her making the bread loafs. She make     50 to 60 loafs (large and small) and then sells      them or trades them for other goods.  These are some of the children in her village that come to see the Brunies (white people).  They sang,danced and did several games.  Elder Asay read to them out of a large reader that their daughter had sent to them.  We have been to many

baptisms. The missionaries we have in our
mission are very strong, powerful, missionaries who are doing a wonderful job of growing the
gospel.  We went to Accra to take our vehicle (which was an Area vehicle) back so it could be
given to Elder and Sister Haws. who are from Hooper, and are assistant auditors for the West
Africa Missions.  We picked up our new truck which is a Nisson Navara.  It is really nice, and
works out better for us to go the the Branches and to haul things we need for them. The last
picture is of a herd of goats walking up the road that goes to our home (the one at the front
of the picture). Goats, chickens, and dogs are everywhere. They have free range of any area they
choose.  That helps them get fattened up so they are ready for someone's dinner when needed.  We will call this good for this blog, but will try to get another one out soon. Elder and Siser Bybee
