July 16, 2018 - Mission week 54: All kinds of Dry

So this was a week with no water, and no appointments.

Monday we had FHE with sister Khetiwe and her family, so that was fun

Tuesday, we met the super awesome Dr. Reldando, who is looking for the true church with his wife, the came from a country that made Religion Illegal and want to worship Christ correctly, so the only problem is his busy doctor schedule, but we will work on that. Then we did a lot of finding.

Wednesday,we did a alot of finding. Got a lot of names, one great one is wendy who works at a ring store and really is excited to read the Book of Mormon.

Thursday was exchanges with Elder Smith in Seshego, had fun me there sister who got baptized on sunday after like 4 years of investigating. then the water went out.

Friday, we had District meeting, met with Wendy, who had read a bit,but didn't have to much time to talk. then everyone canceled, and we did a lot of finding

Saturday, we did an interview in seshego, watched the be one conference with the branch, did a bunch of finding, tried to fill the font for seshegos baptism, but the water was still gone. went to do more finding, and then had dinner with a less active family, the Matildas, they came last week, but couldn't make it to church this week due to illness.

Sunday, Church was just Sacrement meeting since the Branch president decided you can't have church without water. so then we spent the next 5 hours filing the font with buckets from a nearby dam. So my arms are way sore, but we made it happen since her famiy came from far and we couldn't postpone (the girl who i saw on Thursday, Milicent) It was cold but it happened! so yeah.

I have decided that the book of Moroni is the best part of th whole Book of Mormon, go give those last 4 chapters a read and try and dissagree, so insanely powerful.

And the random things 
  • Eating skills matter in this mission
  • I miss not having a broken Nokia for a phone
  • Voicemail boxes are the greatest enemy to the botswana namibia mission
  • Happy birthday Dad, I sent a letter a few weeks ago, hope it actually gets there
  • Lifes good
  • Church meeting vs Water Outage: Water Outage wins/ no unhallowed hand can stop this great work..... except the water being out for 5 days.
  • Cheese is so expesive and only available in cheddar.
Thank you all for your love and support, go read Moroni and pray a lot, it helps with everything

kthanksbye
members, goat meat and pap, and my desk
