Helped a member paint a bunch of walls in their house.. hopefully it turned out nice because my comp and I are definitely not professional painters-- haha.
Taught Minenhle and 3 of Lihle's siblings (Age 9,11,12? I think). The kids should be getting baptized by the end of the month, and we are hoping Minenhle will be able to maybe next month depending on how things go!
Taught Kwasa(20) about the Book of Mormon. He described how he felt as he read from the Book of Mormon and told us that he believes it to be true. Had a really great lesson with him, he is loving the Gospel so much!
Wednesday August 16th
well today we're gonna have Zone Conference and I'll be teaching everyone for about 20/30 minutes.. my topic is obedience so I guess I'm gonna encourage a bunch of 18-28 year old guys to be more obedient... should be fun!
well It went pretty well:) It was kinda fun!
"it was good" said Elder Harper
"nice lesson" said Elder Knutsen.
'well done.. thank you.' said Mission President... so Yeah I'm Kind of a big deal over here right now! hahaha just kidding:)

Thursday
we had Service again this morning at the Msalis.. we did some yeard work so it was fun:) but it was actually quite Cold today... it even started to rain.. and right now it's raining really hard tonight!:) I kind of like it:) either way, today was super nice:)
Friday Morning.....
well this sucks... apparently last night when it rained The darn scabangos jumped the gate, Bashed the back drivers side window of our car in, and stole all our stuff out of the car while we slept... So They Stole my camera:( and my USB With Mormon Messages and music on it.. BUT THEY GOT MY CAMERA!!!:(
There was nothing we could've done.. both gates and the car were all locked! but they used the loudness of the rain so we couldn't hear them smash our window:(
I've tried to keep a pretty good attitude throughout the day but that was expensive and Im really sad! Luckily I backed up my photos a few weeks ago and the ones I hadn't backed up, the good ones were just emailed to you guys... so i didnt lose too much.. Just my darn camera so I'm gonna have to get a new one:( Im gonna ask around the mission first to see if I can get a good deal... maybe a missionary is going home or something? we'll see! either way, Gonna keep moving forward with a smile.. nothin I can do now:/ (1Nephi 18:16)
I'd send you pictures...... but I don't have a camera...
the rest of Friday...
well today the weather was soooooooo nice!! it was super cold so i got to wear a sweater:) but it might have just been cold cause were missing our car window... haha and people were nice to us:) so that was a bonus! hahaha
Sunday August 20th
Well we were super happy because Nthombi was able to make it to church! and then right before church was starting Mbali, her older sister, also came to church!! So it was super cool because they are both powerful investigators. We had our primary program which was pretty fun but also spiritually uplifting seeing the kids testify of Jesus Christ and how they want to always choose the right was super nice!
and well we still dont have a car window but hopefully elder Peterson will help us out real soon...... We could really use a window right about now...:/ i'd hate to get robbed again.... Pray for us!! hahaha
I LOVE YOU GUYS:)))
