Sister Kimball's New Friend
This was a little friend that Elder and Sister Kimball met at the border. She was a little scared of them at first, because she doesn't see many white people, but slowly warmed up to them.
Her ear was so soft.
Sweet Little Friends
This little girl came up to Elder Kimball in church and put her tiny hand in his and just looked up at him. Sister Kimball had her camera and caputred the moment. What a sweet little face.

Kakata Baptism - Nov. 6, 2010
This is the part of the path we used to get to the river where we did the baptisms.
What a beautiful river where we were able to have our Kakata investigators baptized.
There are 6 that were baptized, 5 men and 1 woman. We also have the baptist with the group, Brother Sackie who is on the far left of the group. They are all great people who are so grateful to be members of the Church. Some of them have waited more than 2 years to be taught and baptized.
The one with his back to us is Nathan Sumo and he was so happy when he walked down in the water that he raised his hands and Brother Sackie who was to preform the baptism raised his hands in greeting. 
This is James Thomas walking down into the water. He has been attending for about 2 years and has a strong testimony. He is very focused on serving a mission when he reaches the age 19. He is on the right side in the picture below with his friend Boima Togba who introduced him to the church. It was fitting that it was Boima's birthday on Saturday when his friends was finally able to be baptized. They will both be powerful missionaries one day. James father and mother live out in the bush and he is a Doctor. They are very happy that he is being baptized.
This is Samuel Zinnah on the left with his brother and nephew. Sam is 62 years old and has been attending for 2 1/2 years. He said this was the happiest day of his life. He has been really excited to become a member of the church.
This is Nathan Sumo on the right, his wife Alice in the middle and Nathan's younger brother Henry who were all baptized. Their son Joseph is also in the photo. Alice has been coming to church for a couple of years and Nathan and his brother started to come about 2 months ago. Nathan has been bringing a ton of his friends to church with him.
This is Alexander Coker on the right with his father who is a counselor in the Branch Presidency. These are all great people and will add great strength to the branch over the next few years.

To and From airports and borders
We are very busy taking and receiving Missionaries that are both leaving and returning to airport or the border. Waiting for Pres and Sis Roggia to arrive. Sister Kimball thought she was really cute taking a picture of the people "standing and waiting" at and No standing/waiting sign. What do you want them to do "Sit and Wait."

Elders at the clinic, yes we take them there too.
Elders coming from Sierra Leone
Our duties to bring and take people to the airport and the border all sadly started when Elder and Sister Cutler had to return home because of Sister Cutlers very serious bouts with Malaria. We were so sad to see them go. We have missed the greatly and forged a great friendship while they were here. Thankfully they were able to continue to serve in Canada. This is the Cutlers pictured with President and Sister Suloon and their 2 sons. Cutlers were able to teach and Baptize Sister Suloon and their 2 sons and 2 daughters of age.
