July 2, 2018

This week has been a lot of travels

Monday was good, we went down to Port Alfred to get an update on how the work is going that side. We had a nice DA there with one of the ward missionaries. 

Tuesday was a normal day but with a lot of drops, still trying to get more investigators..... 

Wednesday we drove down halfway to PE to meet the zone leaders for an exchange. I picked up Elder Collett, he's a great elder. We had a really fun time together and got along well... I only got lost once in the area........ luckily. I even got a Dr. Pepper............... :) Elder Cole found them in PE and I ordered one haha

Thursday we got up early to drive to PE for interviews....... needless to say, it turned into a sightseeing tour. We saw giraffes, several types of deer/bok/kudu etc., wildebeest, zebra, and best of all- rhinos, WITH their horns, 5 of them. That was way cool. Anyway, got to PE, had lunch with the zone leaders, 
Following that we had interviews with President Lebethoa. Much needed. And following that we went proselyting/splits with the Motherwell elders. I was with Elder Dicarolo from Italy, he's a way cool guy. In the evening we played guitars together. 

Friday was Zone Conference and was really nice. President Lebethoa could be a good stand up comedian but you'd have to be a missionary to get the jokes. We might be losing the car,......... the area is relocating and decreasing the number of vehicles....... so we'll see what that brings. Following zone conference I renewed my temple recommend. In the evening we drove back to Grahamstown.

Saturday and Sunday were normal.

Today was nice although the city was without power for a chunk of the day.... we went on a 5 hour walking tour with Bro. Alan and he showed us everything from his old age home to getting to meet the senior magistrate at the court haha......... Bro. Alan really has some odd hook ups. Afterwards he made us some microwave dinners in the short span of electricity we had......... nice stuff. Reminded me of Grandma Reeder's house.

Well, another week........ Time is going
