Elder Aidan Holyoak: Yam fufu pounding 🍛🤤

This week we had a zone activity, pounded fufu, and had our Multi-zone Conference.

Our zone activity went smooth. Kind of smooth. We hung out for a while playing card games and football. We had someone in our ward prepare rice ball and groundnut soup for lunch. It was delicious. After everyone got there we started playing Book of Mormon Jeopardy. While we were playing, it started pouring rain harder than it has all month. Everyone had a good time though, when the rain stopped we played more football and someone kicked the ball over the church building.

In the middle of the Week, we went to Sister Horrie's house. She is a great member and she helped us pound fufu. Pounding fufu takes a ton of energy! This time we did just yams but it was really good. Elder Zile did a lot of the pounding and his hands were bleeding. Sister Horrie loves hymns so after we ate we sang like 10 hymns. She sings them a lot faster than normal though, so it didn't take too long.

We had our Multi-zone Conference on Friday. We talked about a lot of stuff but a big part of it was about asking inspired questions. We had a nice lunch and then we did our zone breakouts. I won't bore you on that stuff but in the middle of the conference some lady walked in from the street. They gave her the mic at some point and she talked about being happy. During the lunch break a bunch of people tried to talk with her but she didn't talk much. She laid down on the floor and fell asleep. She was out of the way so it wasn't much of a problem.

Scripture of the Week

Matthew 6:21 - "For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also."
