So i went to bungoma today that was fun, except everyone bugging me cause im the white guy. Some guy tried to get me buy viagra, like he was really determined, dont think i've ever laughed so hard.. But ya the people here. Ha ya some do have a problem with the word of wisdom, but most people i have taught who are not bogus, have given up whatever they had a problem with, majority tea. Freak kenyan love tea kabisa. But ya its good, i have been working with a lady since the first day i got here, and she has a few problems one being tea. She loves tea and doesnt see why she should give it up. And she is afraid of the book of mormon and has refused to take it until this past week. Man we had an awesome lesson with her. We had to show here some connections between the book of mormon and the bible, and wow all i can say was awesome lesson. We gave her a copy of the book of mormon and she told us she is going to read it. But ya awesome. And tithing, no one pays tithing here. most of kenya and all of tanzania rely on the church. Most of the members dont pay tithing and ya not good. But ya anyways most of the people give us the chance to share our message. Very few will not let us come and teach them. But i gotta tell you about a guy named jackson. We meet him through a member, he was visiting her. And we visted her at the same time. And we talked and insted of doing the normal restoration, lesson. We gave him a book of mormon, and explained a little about it, and assinged him to read enos. And the next time we met him, he told us he read it, and he explained to us what happend. And he told us that the book is good, and he wanted us to give him more to read. He also told us he started reading it from the begining. And so we did, and when we meet him again this past week, he told us the book is true and he wants to be baptized. Awesome. Im excited to see him again this week. We are for real going to start to teach him the lessons this week. But ya about this week, its transfers and i havent heard anything which means im prob staying, with my comp another transfer. But its okay the guy is way cool, and actually a pretty good missionary. He really proved it to me these past two weeks. But ya i dont know for sure but most likely i will stay another one.
love matt.
