Somebody Actually Reads These?

Shout out to Mrs. Shuldberg who started reading these a couple months ago when her son got called to the Benin Cotonou Mission. Little did she know that her son would have to be formed by me. 

This week was pretty good, started off just hanging out with Elder 'Aluesi while we were waiting for our new companions to get here. Seeing the guy I was training was pretty wack, I saw his face months ago when he found out he was coming here when I was in the office so I knew what he looked like already but it was just a headshot that I saw. All 6 foot 5 of him hopped out of a taxi and that was pretty awesome. He's a really nice guy from Texas, into baseball, science, memes, and is just a really chill guy.

It's been really fun showing him everything I've kind of forgotten how weird my life is here but in just showing him all the local food I love and teaching him the language I've really just re-realized how awesome it is here and how surreal it all is when you first get here. 

Forgot to take any pictures this week so here's a live photo of my comp talking to his family.
Hope you all have a great week.
