Hey everybody!

had a baptism this week! It was wonderful and I'm so grateful that I was able to help Sihle become a member of Christ's Church and God's Kingdom!!!!

I don't have much to say this week but know that I am thankful for all that everyone does for me and the support that you give me!

Transfers is this week...on my birthday. We will get transfer news tonight and I'm not sure what is going to happen. I may stay or I may go...who knows. I'm fine with whatever happens!
What else? I had an exchange with Elder Simpson this week and we had a very powerful day! We met someone that had a lot of questions about the Church and the Book of Mormon and we used the Book of Mormon to show her how much Christ means to us...it was so great!!!! Then we had a lesson with this new investigator and she had some questions about repentance and yet again it seemed like Elder Simpson and I were being led right to the scriptures in the Book of Mormon to help her! I love the Book of Mormon, I just finished reading it for the fourth time this morning...love every word! I'm trying to read through the New Testament as well...oh boy, scriptures are just amazing!

Well...I hope that everyone has a great week! 

Sorry this is so short!

Well everyone, this week has been interesting.

Things didn't go quite as planned, we had a lot of dropped appointments and a lot of hunting and finding.  It has been a long week but I'm glad that I lived it because I'm stronger because of all those things!

The highlight of the week was the lessons with Sihle. She will be baptized next week saturday and then confirmed on Sunday.  She has a real, strong desire even though she struggles with english.  As she grows and learns more in the church, she will become a very powerful member.  Yesterday we read with her in 1 nephi 8 and we used objects around us to recreate Lehi's vision. A weed was the tree of life, the dirt was the field, a stick was the iron rod...so forth. It was a great lesson. I like teaching outside!

Elder Mukongoro and I are doing well together despite our cultural differences and barriers.  He is a very powerful missionary and I'm grateful to be serving with him!

Transfers is next week. I am completely dumbfounded on what is going to happen.  Have not a clue of whether I will be staying or I'll be going, whatever it is, it is with the Lord. 

Sorry this is short but I have to go!!! LOVE YOU!!!!!!
