Carson's Mission July 2022-July 2024 Côte d'Ivoire Abidjan West Mission

What's up family and friends.It's time to start your weekly reading of emails. I hope mine are one of the ones you look forward to! Allons-y! Ok so monday this week we went to a zone activity, with permission from president. Usually that's not something we would need permission for but seeing as our p days are on saturday, it was a definitely something we had to confirm we could do. But he said yes. so we spent the day playing spikeball basketball, soccer and all sorts of other fun stuff. It went well and i got to see some amazing friends in our zone. Office work: office work went pretty well this week. I was really focused and i worked really hard to make sure that i did what i could. This is also my last week with Elder McCurdy :(. anyways he's technically the tech lead/ my trainer. so i because he's going back to the U.S. I know i'll be the tech lead next week and i feel ready! I feel like i have a decent understanding of everything in tech from problem s...

Welcome Back everyone, thanks to all that read, if you don't read i dont really care haha, this is my way of journaling pretty much soooo. Anyways this week(especially monday - thursday) was AWESOME. a lot happened. lets break it down Monday So monday morning before we left the apartment i went to the bathroom and saw poop on the floor (not human poop don't worry) rat poop haha. There was a trail of poop coming from the bathroom drain so we assumed it came in and then got scared pooped on the floor and then went back down the drain haha, idk kinda weirdddd. Then Elder McCurdy went to the Banco Forest as an activity for all the missionaries going home. Soooo, I got to spend the morning with Elder Cavé and Elder Reshetar, it was awesome! We went to a nice bakery and ate super good pastrys. Then we went to pick up my glasses, i got them and i actually like them. for the price they were i can see perfectly and they work how i wanted them to so what a success. Then went to the...

40, 40 weeks, thats 280 days, that's a lot of days. that's more days then i could count without losing my patience. That's cool. I'm officially over 9 months which is absolutely insane. Shoutout to Elder Rowland who came out the same day as me. 9 months really changes a person. you not 9 monthers wouldnt understand. Even if you have more than 9 months. you still dont understand. Yako! Anyways. I dont know what happened this week. We had lots of conference type stuff so i got to see a lot of missionaries. we also had general conference. I guess you could call this week the week of conferences. anyways, allons-y So We had general conference last week at the ward building saturday and sunday. we had a pretty good turnout i was happy with the amount of people there. i love general conference. It also was great seeing my french improvement. I remember last conference i didnt understand a word. speaking of last conference, i've officially watched 2 semi annual confere...

What's up everyone! I love you all sooo much and miss you guys! This week was a lot of work but the Lord was with us and led us through till the end! It qas a great week Ok so i created a new weekly newsletter for the mission, I'm hoping that'll have a positive impact on the people here and that i can continue it make it better and better every week! We had zone conference this week, so i went to zone conference three times. We got a brand new (...expensive) mic set-up and it was suchhh a blessing! The spirit was so much stronger because of our sound system haha. That might not make sense but the mic system before was just so unclean and would cut out and the mics would start making noises like they were about to blow up... often. Now we have an amazing set up thay worked almost flawlessly. I was in charge of that new sound system and for the most part i believe it sounded great. Also zone conference was so great and everytime i went i felt the spirit a different way. ...

Ok last week i said that it was week 35, which wasn't true, i missed a week and i was covering two weeks, therefore it was 36 and 37, which brings us to now! Week 38! I know you don't care and probably didnt even notice but, whateva. Anyways, lets get on to the email. I dont really know what to talk about but, I do remember some key details about this week so lets get into it. Ok we're gonna talk about the senior couples in the office really quick because they're amazing. Really they are all so smart and they've gone through a lot more than me so i love picking their brains and learning what they did in their life to become successful. But also, Sister Morris invited us to her house 2 times this week, it was awesome. and i'm talking about it for a reason, not just to flex haha gimme a second. Ok so the first time we kinda invited ourselves.. oops. she made a cake for an english connect class (english connect is where the french speakers learn english) and afte...
