This week I finally got to go work in the bush with the missionaries in Tsevie, we took buses up to the villages of Zafi, Ahepe, and Tabligbo on Thursday to do some missionary work. Almost no one there spoke any french so we worked with a member of the church to help us translate throughout the day. Had a blast seeing all of the kids because most of them were scared of us. A lot of the parents there tell stories to their kids where white people are pretty much boogeymen to scare them into staying home. After we started to win their trust some of the kids there invited us to lunch and I asked what we would be eating, one of the boys proudly flaunted the biggest rat I have ever seen. This ugly bugger must have been like 2 feet long with his tail included. Needless to say we politely passed and opted to eat pat with our member that had been translating for us. In the afternoon right before we left to come back down before it got dark there was a huge rainstorm; I don't know that I've ever been more soaked to the bone before that. Was a lot of fun and I'm looking forward to going up there again this transfer period.
Speaking of that I am still going to be working in Agoe with Elder Legall for the next 6 weeks. And one of us will probably stay another 6 weeks after that to train a missionary on the area before we leave so potentially could be here beginning of December to the beginning of June. Only time can tell and I'll know for sure in 6 weeks.
Hope you guys have a good week.
