Hello Everyone!
This has been a week with the Lebethoa's.
On Monday I got a fun call that Elder Milne and I got a speeding ticket back in PE, luckily it was super cheap, R75 so no worries haha. Got that taken care of quick. (traffic is monitored by video camera and tickets are mailed out)
Tuesday we had interviews with President Lebethoa in Somerset and it was really nice to talk to him, he's an awesome mission president.
Friday we had Zone Conference in Bellville with the three zones here in Cape Town and President Lebethoa and his wife gave a powerful training. I love learning from them.
Saturday I was on Exchanges with Elder Mthembu and we had an interesting Saturday. I was invited to accompany the Khayelitsha ward choir for stake conference (adult and general sessions) so we went and rehearsed with them for a while. At 4:00 we went to a Leadership session of stake conference at Mowbray chapel, and President Lebethoa gave a nice training on ward mission leaders. At 6 (because of choir) we were invited to stay for the Adult Session and the talks were some of my favourite ever on mission. Especially Sis. Lebethoa's and President Holmes (the stake president). The choir performed Brightly Beams Our Father's Mercy and the chapel actually had an old Steinway to play on which was nice.
Sunday we went to the General Session of conference in Meadowridge near Muizenburg. A beautiful side of town. It's crazy how diverse the stake is, I met (non missionaries) members from almost every African nation, USA, Canada, Ireland, Scotland, England, and counting missionaries Brazil. Pretty cool. The focus (for all sessions) was on getting the stake temple worthy. Again Pres Lebethoa and his wife delivered powerful addresses.
I'd go into detail on a talk from the Adult Session but unfortunately not enough time for now.
But ya, that was my week, this morning I made 120 peanut butter cookies, fun stuff.
Until Next Week!
