June 27th- Holy Son of a gun- its been a week!
"Wow What week"- Probably the most heard phrase you hear from me but i mean it! This week has been very hectic, not just for me but the whole zone. This week there were riots alllll week through out all the townships surrounding Pretoria, a major was illegally elected into office and every one went ham after that! They burnt 18 buses in mamelodi and closed down all the major roads, including the N4, destroyed a whole mall and killed a few people.... so all the elders in the areas had to get ET'ed to other elders. so this week I was in a 3 some and so were the kwa-gua 1 and witbank elders. It was crazy but once we go pick them up from Pretoria and head up to kwa gua, we run into more roits blocking the whole main road, but this time for the lack of electricity. Africans must walk up every morning and have two options in their mind, LETS GO MAKE A RIOT or LETS GO CAUSE CHAOS FOR NO GOOD OF A REASON! haha half the reason i love Africa right there. Same thing happens when it come to sacrament meeting; you can imagine 😄
Edler Mcqueen left on Wednesday and said some quick good byes and had to run back up to witbank to get to some appointments. I have a awesome New comp, elder Ndlovu from durban. Hes in the same mtc group as mee and we both have the same desire to serve, what a blessing it is! I made me look back and ponder what i did with the difficult time that were GIVEN to me. I am so thankful for the chance to begin a new start with my area, the zone and mission. We have a new mission President coming tomorrow, his name is quite strange so i dont know how to spell it haha. I know he is going to do great things just like President Wilson has. President wilson was like a father to me and his wisdom and knowledge of the gospel has changed me forever. he has such a deep comprehension of the atonement i will never forget it. His love has really changed me, Sister wilson is the sweetest women ive met besides my own mother & grandmas. She was always cheering you on and would sometimes tell you to suck it up and take a ibuprofen. A firm mother that knows her standards! I will never forget them, the new mission president has a lot to compete for 😉
We are white washing the area, starting people over with their lessons and making sure everything is fresh and done and taught properly & with the spirit! We didnt get to see many people on date but my high light for this week was running into so many LA's on the street and seeing their desire to come back. Sister mabosho came back to church after a year, so that was FREAKIN SWEET. Had a amazing lesson with Doctor, who put him self on date for July 16th. He will be a great leader to his family. Thandi finally got back from her trip so we are continuing with her and she will make it to baptism! Tough area but i love the people too much to really get down about it.
I finally got by pictures figured out! Africoners seem to be able to figure everything out.
ENJOY THE PICS!
LOVE YOU!!!
