It is good to hear from you. Jamie how are you? Yea I do understand many people think that Africa is one big country not a continent b/c the war and natural disasters we face many challenges as a continent. But now when you see the world bank report out of ten growing fast countries in the world 7 are African countries. I know much about my country. It is growing very fast next to China and India. When you see our capital city it is the top 10 most visited city in the world in 2014. Yea there is a lot of poor people and at the same time there is a lot of rich people from expensive cars and private jets. Will you come and see one day? I know you will love it very much. All things that you have in U.S. you will find here if you come. We do have X-box or PlayStation. I like to play FIFA when I was home b/c I like football. I promise for you it is really different from the image that you have. There is a lot of good things which you will never hear in the news. Anyways I heard about Caleb from Ann and am sorry. I do know how it is painful.
We had wonderful week finding and teaching. We are planing to have a baptism next week for Brother Harrison. He is 19 years old. That would be the last baptism of this month. The people that we are preparing for the next month and our RC are doing good. They came to church yesterday. Emmanuel and Samuel. They received the Aaronic priesthood. That was so cool. My companion dropped the phone in the water so since Friday we are out of the phone. Hopefully we will have one tomorrow.
Thank you so much.
Much love
Elder Birresa
