Fawaka!
Hey everyone, it's been another fantastic, suspense filled,
action ride of a journey here again in good 'Nam; Suriname!
A lot has happened this week so it's time to test my memory.
After emailing we played games with all the missionaries,
Elder Carpenter and I did some trunky shopping before hand but it was pretty
fun, he ended up buying this really cool Indian Chief ring for only 27 SRD,
I'll have to look into that next time we're over there.
On Wednesday it was Brother Ronorejoe's birthday so we put
together a quick put together (but well done) present. We tried making cookies
out of cake mix but we ended up burning them on the bottom so I took a knife
and cut off the bottoms of them. We also put in: candy, more cookies, some ties
and mentos! He and his family loved it! I also took a tie that I had (it was a
small one) and gave it to their adopted son Simeon! Sister Ronorejoe thought it
was adorable and so they had me tie it on him, it was weird because it made me
think about doing this with my son one day ANYWAYS let me get back on track.
We also did some service with Brother Tapoh, het was echt
zwaar werk! We went to a lumber yard and loaded a bunch of trees cut in half
and loaded them into this giant blue truck. On the way there it was pretty
funny, the taxi driver was pretty late and got mad at me when I accidentally
shut the door a little hard, also the tint started coming off when I rolled
down the window but he was out of the car when that happened! 😎
We've found a lot of cool people recently, we've been
exploring some parts that I haven't contacted before (see picture below) and
they've been very interested! We were biking down this one dirt road and it
started raining, after a bit I looked at this one house and I felt like we
needed to go talk to them. So we went there and they were willing to talk with
us! We ended up talking with the rest of the people down the road and they were
all willing! We had a really cool lesson with this one Hindu woman and she said
how what we were saying felt true!
Today we've been trying to get haircuts but unfortunately,
here the opening times they have written down are just suggestions!
Well it's been a pleasure talking with you all and I hope
you're doing well!
Lobi,
Elder Hardy

The title translates to
"Ask me why I'm busy!"
