Hamataun is offically here and all the ghanians are dying from the dry heat. me on the other hand like it a TONNN more then the old weather. it feels like a warm summer day back home so it doesnt feel as hot! but its soooo dusty now! hasnt rained for like 3 weeks now so everything is just covered in dirt! my tag is getting niccce testimony too it hahah.
so during sacrement this week sister thomas was feeling sooo sick and she wanted to go to the hospital but before we took her she ask for a preistood blessing from the 4 elders in the district. man it was a powerful prayer given by my companion. and as soon as the prayer ended she stood up and said the pain is gone... in ghana they say WHAT THE WOW! the power of god is real, i know it works through our faith and worthiness. im soo grateful for sister thomas faith to ask for a priesthood blessing. man the church is true the book is blue!
