March 5, 2018

Hello everyone, another week by

and Rain

This week has been super rainy and has dumped buckets, and also had a lot of thunder and lightning. You always know when it's going to be a big storm here in Africa because it's super hot and humid in the morning/afternoon and then it gets really really cold quick and the storm rolls right in. The other night we were probably driving in about 6 inches of water. It's a shame Cape Town isn't here to get any of it. I almost got struck by lightning the other day too, it was pretty crazy, it struck just right across the road in a field about 100m away.... all I can say is I've never jumped back into a car so fast in my life....

We've been working with some good investigators between wards 1 and 4. We've also been able to reactivate some less actives which is cool, the biggest things with less actives, is helping them build courage to meet the bishop, then he gives them a calling, and then they're active, not much too it. 

We're teaching a really old mama named mama Nothemba, and she is quite a funny lady. She's in her 60's and has really gained a strong testimony. It's just funny cause she brags to her friends that her church doesn't charge a fee to be in the women's organisation (relief society) and doesn't have a uniform lol. She's quite a lovely lady. 

Olwethu is doing good, she actually gave the closing prayer in church which was pretty cool. Her son loves primary and isn't afraid of elders anymore haha. 

It's crazy, It's march, and next week is transfers so depending on Saturday, I'll know if I'm leaving or staying. I'd prefer to stay- MD is really nice. 

Until next week.
