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

Wow, here we are, at the end. No more emails. No more cheesy Google photo links, no more funny pics, no more franglais, nothing, It's finished. It's hard to explain what I'm feeling. Probably because I don't even know what I'm feeling. It's hard because I'm really happy. I'm really excited, yet somehow, I'm really sad. I also feel like I really worked my hardest and gave my all to the Savior, yet at the same time, I want to stay longer. I feel like there's so much more work left to do. Regardless of all of that, what us SURE, is that I'm coming home the 19th (also my birthday). That Wednesday I'm grabbing a flight to Paris->LAX->SLC Utah. I'll be home this week! I'm so excited and I'm going to talk about all my crazy stories and share experiences I've had that have shaped me into the person I've become today. I'll be sharing that at my Homecoming which is: June 23rd @ 8:30 AM 3145 W Mayflower Ave Lehi UT...

Hey everyone, I received a special request to not put any slang or French in my email, let's see if I can do it. I don't have that much faith but I'll try my hardest. Well, welcome to my second to last email, I don't really know what to say. It doesn't feel real. Here we are. This week was pretty good, we got some good work done. We got some member referrals which was lit, however sadly, our lessons with members was it's lowest since I've been here, we had some obstacles which I'll explain more later Started the week off w/ district council at our place because we can never get the keys to the ward building. It was good, we set some goals as a district to improve. That day we has a member family make us sauce claire (basically is a type of onion/pepper soup) and while we waited we played some games. We thought it would be done soon and then we could eat and go... but nope. It took a long time a lot longer than we thought. We told then we had to go and...

Elder Knoll was feeling kinda sick so that sucked but in the morning i got to see a bunch of members from the Abobodo...

Monday I already talked about in my last email, I guess what I didn't talk about was the fact that I did a baptismal interview that evening for a young man named Xavier. This guy is so awesome. He's done, BYU pathways, English Connect, he's doing BYU Idaho and he got a Heber B Grant (idk if that's the exact name) scholarship and he's about to finish his course. L'HOMME. He passed his interview without any problems but it went for super long because 1) he loved to talk and 2) I loved to listen. Everyone after was like dang is everything okay that took so long and I was just like yeah we just sat together and talked as friends for like an hour. I love baptismal interviews, they just give the best opportunities to connect with people on a much deeper level then you can when you're constantly in groups with members or companions. Tuesday we had district council which was cool.. we have problems getting into the building we do district council in so we had...
