Week 36- First Week as a ZL in Mamelodi

Hey Everyone!

Wow this week has been hectic, we had a mini transfer before the real one and they transferred me to Mamelodi right by the capital of SA. And man let me tell you the area is something else like I've never seen before! Its a massive township that couldn't be more crazy. The entire city is known for being a city so diverse that it's almost a country of its own. Crazy drivers and all of the above! My comp is Elder Eriemia and has signed onto Byu to play middle line backer, hes HUGE! Super great guy and has a great spirit! This is also my first time serving in a ward so its been great so far, great to see more than 40 members show up haha, we have a good amount of investigators and the work is good here. I really enjoy it! I will send pictures next week, i think it will blow all your minds! I am excited to start a new phase of my mission with the constant support of god!
Love and pray for you all, always!

Good morning over there! Yeah so the new house is sweet, its pretty roomy for both of us. We are getting so much more work done now its incredible. We found a ton of new investigators last week and this week and we have been able to see most of them. Lots of cool story's. First we broke our record for investigator lessons taught in a week sense we opened the area!  And we decided to track down as many of the former investigators as we could and we found Maria and pindilea who are wonderfully prepared, they had a brother who was takin the lessons and was going to be baptized but the missionary's were taken out of the area and their brother bongoni passed away. It was crazy when they showed us his BOM that he would study out of and the old pamphlets. Besides that we found a lot of father led family's and they all look promising. We are a happy bunch and should have sister mathodi baptized on the 29th. She is awesome, every time she blows me away with signs of a c...
