First off it was off and on raining all week once again. Which means that there multiple times when I got soaked from the rain, but also many times when it was 90 and sunny and I got soaked from my sweat. Super Fun!
The highlight of my week was my exchange with Elder Tuione. It happened on Wednesday and part of the highlight was their apartment. They have one of the nicest apartments in the mission and on that exchange I did two things that I hadn't done in a long time. First I slept in AC. It was the first time that had happened since I was being transferred to Kenema. And then in the morning I took a warm shower. Like warm water came out of the shower head above my head. They have a water heater and it was the first time since the MTC I had taken a warm shower. Yes you would be correct when you think wow that was 396 days between warm showers for Elder Hendricks.
Okay back to the actual exchange, Elder Tuione is half Tongan and from Heriman Utah (lol to anyone that gets it). He went to Riverton High School and has been out just over 6 months. He is super dope and we had an awesome time. We even taught I dude that lived in Canada for like 15 years so we taught in perfect english. Also side note, the guy from Canada said Washington was the best state, so even people in Sierra Leone know.
The rest of the week went pretty much as planned and we are teaching some really cool people. We were given a new person to teach by our soon to be new Ward Mission Leader. His name is Isaac and he came to church on Sunday and really has a desire to learn so stay tuned about him.
A while ago I shared about a man named Sylvester Kabia. After I shared about him he kinda went awol. But he's back and better then ever and tonight we are going to give him a baptismal date for the end on the month. As you can see "No Unhallowed hand can stop the work from progressing".
Saturday night was our party. We had a district activity of making french toast and playing ping pong. Your boy cranked out about 80 slices of french toast and took 2nd in the district ping pong tournament. Elder Tuione worked me in the final but hey what can I do, hes half Tongan.
All is well!

2. 95% of hair you see in Sierra Leone is fake, so one member let me try her wig, I was told I looked like a mix between Jesus and a punk rock drummer.
