I had cocoa yesterday. I dont know the need of the people to bring out the cocoa in the summer time but whatever. And yes the bike thing, me and elder obinna have been laughing about all week. We keep joking about it. And i assure you there is nothing to worry about. Me i just have been having fun with it you know. Im going to see whats the dillo (mest) tommorow. I might have to go to the police station again but not sure. But hey not a big deal. I just think its funny cause he chose me cause im white. But just so you know people here dont have lights, decorations, christmas tree's or anything for that matter. All they do is have a big party on christmas, and eat chicken. Which i will be happy to go and party with them and eat chicken. So something else, i want to thank you for your prayers in fact everyones prayers. Cause something as a missionary you come to learn is the power of prayer. I know the lord blesses me cause of them. So me myself now want to tell you about last week. So ya we live by some mountains and i've never been up there. And me i wanted to know whats up there so i was asking a member. And she told me to not go up there its dangerous. That people who go up there dont come back. And upon hearing this you know what i did...... i went up there. And wow its way nice up there, it looks over webuye, and you can see far, you can even see uganda. So ya its pretty awesome. And to make things better, we found people to teach! like tons! like wow we could spend the whole day up there teaching people. So ya im pretty exctied and im glad i went up there. We are going back again this week. Should be some good stuff.
So ya like i told the ap's were here last week and i think i figured out why, i think they want to close our area. They told us they need to close 2 area this transfer, and i think they targeted our area as one of them. That would make 7 area's closed in the last 3 transfers. All cause we are not getting missionaries and we losing them like crazy. And the ap's told us we are only getting 2 next transfer and we are losing 5. So ya our mission is getting smaller and smaller.

Now im sending home a punga which is a small sword, and whenever boys come over to the house i want mike or someone of large stature to wear it and to stare at them like they might do something crazy sawa? So ya im just kidding about that but really im gonna do it.......... and please dont worry about the police nini, i've got the lord on my side. So ill talk to you next week..

love matt.
