In the Dona of things - 12/22/14



If i were to give advise when one wants to ride in a taxibrus from fianarantsoa to antsirabe at 8:00 in the morning until 2:00pm this is what i would give to them............1. Do not put your right arm outside of the window for the entire 6 hour drive. You will look like me in the end....Which is to say half of you will look normal and the other half of your body will look like it went through a furnace. Haha my entire right side is now way tan, but the left side of my face is still normal. GWAHP! haha.
When i arrived i went on a split with Elder Morleys child (Elder Kelsh) and had a blast going through mahazoarivo. SO MUCH FUN! Then i met up with Elder Andriamanganoro and Elder Christiansen. We went home in our truck, and did some planning, when upon the morning Elder Christiansen had a horrible fever that lasted all of friday as well. So Me and Elder Noro, went on a split and got to visit the Dona. We taught this way old BEBE and her grandchild and then visited some less actives.
On Friday, Me and Elder Noro went to shopright and got some groceries to make some pot roast, and then on the way home i was like "Hey Elder Noro (Andriamanganoro for short) You want to drive home?" So he did, and right as we were about to get home....We crashed into a puspus... And at least the guy did not have any broken bones. Just a bruise. That was good.....So already having adventures in the DONA! What what!? :)
On saturday we had a meeting with the branch pres, and then taught some times which was way good and awesome. Then sunday we had an awesome church meeting where Elder Randrianantenaina came home from his mission and is in our branch now!!!! I love Jonny! He gave a great talk and it connected to the talk that i gave and the one that elder Christiansen gave. So much fun in the Dona.
So really quickly. In manandona we have 2 (Groups) That are in our area. the 1st. Being Beso, and the 2nd Ibity. They are super far away. Beso is over the mountain about an hour and a half and then ibity is about the same in the other direction. So we have alot of fun in our little area of madagascar. :)
Well christmas is coming up, and i am so excited. We are trying to translate the script of 17 miracles into malagasy and then we will watch that for christmas :) I will try to be albert or something so that i can be "Superb!" Haha but we shall see. I Know that this work is true. I love the people of manandona even though they can be a little crazy :)
Well Merry christmas, and don't drink like most people here do for christmas
Love Elder Lehr
