<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Well... my mission is complete. It has been a good ride. I could go on and on about how much I love South Africa and its people. But I would be lying if I said I wasn't excited to come back home and see my family!</span></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">This week I told Elder Cox I just want to be working as much as possible in our area. We had a goal to work more than 50 hours this week and we were successful! The sun was burning bright but we still managed to spend our time wisely.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>Tuesday: </b>We held an FHE @ the Masango's house and showed them how to roast marshmallows and make smores. They had never done so before. The smores were delicious!</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>Sunday:</b> Day of Mfundo Nene's baptism. We arrived at church with everything ready and our branch president told us that we might have to postpone the baptism because Chatsworth was having their ward conference. We asked if we could do it at Pinetown instead and he called their bishop and he said we can do it. After church most of Umbhedula piled into their cars and we drove to the Pinetown chapel.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">When we arrived, there was no water in the baptismal font! We turned on the tap, ran a separate hose into the font and began quickly filling buckets of water and dumping them inside. The members sang hymns while they waited. When the font was at a reasonable level, we started the service. Mfundo asked me to baptize him. When we stepped into the water, it was cold! It took 4 attempts to get it right because the water level was too low.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">It seemed like everything that could have possibly went wrong did so, and yet everything worked out okay. The members were smiling, Mfundo's family was there, and the spirit was there. I can say this experience was like a parallel to life. Everything may seem not to go our way, but at the end of the day God makes it all work out.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Photo finish. This has been one of the most unexpected events of my mission.</span></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Unfortunately, Mhtokozisi will not make his baptismal date. He wasn't at home both times we tried to see him. He doesn't have a phone. It is not a huge setback, but most likely he needs some more time to be ready. He might be baptized next transfer.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">When I came to Umbhedula in June we started teaching Nkanyiso Nene, who was baptized in August. He is still going strong. Around that time we also started teaching his older brother Mfundo, who is 19 years old. Mfundo started coming to church but he didn't feel ready to be baptized yet. He started working as a receptionist in a neighboring city and we weren't able to meet with him very often.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Time went on and about two weeks ago he finished his job and started to be at home more frequently. He met with him once and read from the Book of Mormon with him. During our next visit we invited him to be baptized on the 28th of October (my last Sunday) and he said he will pray about it. When we returned last Friday he told us that "my heart has been softened by Christ". He was interviewed on Saturday and he passed!!</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I am blown away because that came out of nowhere. We will have a baptism my last Sunday, and Mfundo asked me to baptize him. Heavenly Father has answered my prayers in a way I never would have expected.</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">On Saturday we had zone conference. It went really well and I was able to bear my final testimony. I can say it was an emotional experience. I didn't cry though! Haha.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">On Thursday we did an exchange in Molweni. The views are beautiful there. Here are some pictures.</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Yesterday Elder Cox and I got to name two rottweiler puppies. The Shabalala family has a tradition: when they get a new puppy they allow a missionary to name it. Since there were two of them we both got to name one! The names we chose are Bruno and Aaron. They are so cute.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">We have been teaching our landlords and their family on several nights when we return from our normal work from the day. It makes me very exhausted because it is essentially working overtime but there is no overtime for the Lord. The lessons are going very well and two members of the family came to church yesterday!</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Two weeks to go.. what else can I say?</span></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">On Thursday I went on an exchange with Elder Chiromo in KwaDabeka. He is a great guy! I served there in February 2017 for only 6 weeks. I was very excited to go back because my time there was short compared to the rest of my areas. I haven't been in 19 months! Some members I saw remembered me and it was a joyful reunion! What a sweet experience to have right before I finish my mission.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Work is going great! We moved Mthokozisi's baptism to the 28th to give him an extra week to prepare. He says that he has stopped smoking, and he even came to general conference! I hope that he can make this date because it is my last Sunday. We are exercising faith in the Atonement that it will give him the power to be clean!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">We should have 4 baptisms the Sunday after I leave. Sis. Cele, the wife of the 1st councilor in the branch presidency, and 3 younger girls. Sometimes we find that children aren't baptized when they are 8 so we need to help the families get their children baptized.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">From General Conference I learned that I need to place an increased emphasis on family scripture study and regular temple attendance, both things I could have been better at in the past. Also I took note of President Nelson's talk on how we need to refer to Christ's church by it's correct name.</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">We have had another great week! I am really feeling the spirit of missionary work these days. And I am excited for general conference.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Our man Mthokozisi is making great progress towards baptism. He is improving in trying to quit smoking. We taught him the law of chastity recently and he showed incredible faith in committing to live this law. He has a girlfriend whom he has a 3 year old child with. He told us that he will explain about the law of chastity with her and invite her to live by it. If she is not willing to live by it he said that he would break up with her so that he can keep the commandments of God. This is a powerful display of faith by him. Hoping that he can stop smoking so that he can be baptized on October 21st!</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">The 1st counselor in the branch presidency asked us to come teach his wife, who speaks little English. He told us that she has been taught on and off by missionaries since 2007 but now he feels that the time is right for her to be baptized. We met with the family last night and taught about the plan of salvation. His children taught different parts of the lesson to their mother. She told us that she has a desire to be baptized and we set a date with her for the 4th of November! Sadly I will miss it, but I am very happy that the Lord has prepared her and that she has accepted the gospel in her heart.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">In other news, Sunday was a day of reunions for us. We got to travel to KwaMashu after church because Elder Cox was asked to baptized two guys he taught while serving there. It was a great experience for him and I got to meet some missionaries and a member I haven't seen a while! Also a member from KwaDabeka, Ndumiso, came to Umbhedula for church yesterday. I haven't seen him in over a year! Now he is married in the temple to a member from Umbhedula!! It makes me so happy to see old friends. I imagine that's how it will be when I see all of you soon!</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">It's October! One month to go!!! Not many updates. I was sick most of the week, took Thursday off. My body was a little weak but nothing serious, back to normal now.</span></span><br />

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">We are still helping the Nene family with their home! On Saturday we mixed cement and lifted it up in a bucket to the roof using a chain. The house extension should be finished in a few weeks. This week we should be working on the floor inside. The family is going to sell ice inside this part of the home. We got baked in the sun again! Sometimes I get surprised when I see myself in the mirror because I am getting darker.</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">One of our investigators, Mthokozisi, is getting closer to baptism. We had a great lesson on the Word of Wisdom this week. His family gave him some medication to stop smoking but he hadn't been taking it. We had him take it right in front of us as the first step to quitting. More updates next week!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Another series of interesting events this week!</span></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">1. MLC (Mission Leadership Council) was held in Pinetown on Friday. It was my last one! It has been a cool experience to work so closely with the leaders of the mission for the last year. I said goodbye to many good friends of mine! I'll attach some pictures from the mission blog.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">2. On Saturday we helped the Nene family, whom we have been teaching, to build part of their house. It started raining so we stayed inside and helped Baba install a window.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">3. Walking in the rain is fun. Better than the sun at least!</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">4. Yesterday we helped a man who is about to have a baby to make amends with his sister. He has been scared to come to church because his sister is an active member and he has been hiding from her because he didn't inform her about the baby. We helped him to have confidence to open up to his sister. After an emotional talk, they made peace with each other and now he feels excited to come to church on Sunday! He is less active and his girlfriend is an investigator so it will be a great experience for both of them to return to church.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">5. We have been preparing a YSA aged guy named Mhtokozisi for baptism. He has increased excitement for his baptism because we mention it every time we visit with him. He was so excited that during elder's quorum he raised his hand and told everyone that he is new and preparing to be baptized on the 14th of October!</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Transfer news is here: I am finishing my mission in Umbhedula with Elder Cox!! I'm happy. Can't believe this is my last transfer, 6 weeks to go!</span></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">This week has been great! We finished the transfer off with Max's baptism. Spa, our 17 year old friend, baptized her! As usual the branch did a great job of supporting her. President Sithole said some kind words of encouragement to us so I believe that we have left a good impression in his eyes. Max's testimony made us laugh because she talked about being independent and being a daughter of God in a bold way while speaking in her Ugandian accent.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Some tender mercies came from following spiritual promptings:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">1. I was prompted to go to the home of a man we are teaching named Petros. He is very sincere but we haven't been able to sit down with him due to a busy work schedule. When we knocked on the door his wife answered and said that he was off that day and will be home later in the evening. We came back and taught the family about the Restoration. Then Petros came to church on Sunday!!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">2. Elder Cox was prompted to knock on a few doors in a place near the chapel that we thought had already been worked. We found a woman named Phumla who has just moved there recently. We offered to walk with her to church and when we showed up on Sunday she was ready to go! She loved church and even had a friend there that she didn't know was a member of our church. We are going to visit with her and her fiance this week.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">"I don't know about you, but I'm feeling 22" What a week!!! We did some great things to celebrate. On Monday we ate seafood at Ocean Basket. Wednesday was zone conference and afterwards Max passed her baptismal interview. In the evening we went to the Pakisi's home to eat cake because Andile and I share a birthday! She is the one in the picture with the cake.</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">On Saturday it was raining pretty hard and we went out and got wet. For an hour we were waiting for some members to get home and we were hiding from the rain on the side of their house with our backs pressed up against the wall! Elder Cox and I set aside some time in the morning to plan a few different exciting goals. Such as:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">1. Organizing a bible study class at a member's home on Wednesdays at 4pm.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">2. Holding a weekday FHE at a member's home and inviting less actives in the area.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">3. Invite the branch to have a "bring a friend" Sunday and set a goal with them for a day.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">4. Bring a box of Book of Mormons to church and have members write their testimonies in them. They can give them out or we can.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">We have already started working on most of these goals. I am excited to see how the Bible study goes as we will be able to tie it in to church doctrines. We started a 120 day Book of Mormon challenge as a mission. I will finish it when I am home so it will help me with the transition back to normal life.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Next Sunday Max will be baptized so I will send the updates and pictures!!</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">On Wednesday I turn 22! We are planning a few events to celebrate. My birthday is on zone conference so after that we will go to a member's home who has the same birthday as me and eat cake! Today we will braai in Durban (braai is the equivalent of south african barbeque). Should be exciting!</span></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">The heat is picking up and hills are still no joke. On Friday we got cooked alive because we were walking in the sun for hours. Our few appointments cancelled so we were wondering what to do. We said a small prayer and went to an area we don't normally work in. While we were there we found a friend of Mxolisi, who is going to school in Durban and got out of rehab a little while ago. His name is Mhtokozisi. He told us that he wants to join our church because of the big change he saw in Mxolisi, especially that he quit smoking. On Sunday he came to church!! It was a small miracle for us.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">On Sunday we planned to see someone we are teaching named Max. We got to her home and the gate was locked and her phone was locked. If we didn't see her that day we would have had to postpone her baptism due to scheduling issues. We sat down and I said a small silent prayer and a few minutes later she showed up! She sat us near her house from afar and she ran to get to us in time. Max is 18 years old and from Uganda. She is set to be interviewed on Wednesday for baptism. Yesterday she bore her testimony about being excited for her baptism and the branch was very happy to see that. We met with her father yesterday and talked to him about the gospel. Next Sunday we are going to teach him and he told us that he will come to her baptism!</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I feel like I say this every week but I can't believe how fast 2 years has gone. It is already September!! I am excited for the upcoming days.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Yesterday Mxolisi and Nkanyiso were confirmed and given the Holy Ghost! I felt humbled because Mxolisi asked me to confirm him. Ordinances are always a special experience to witness and be a part of.</span></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Before sacrament meeting began, a drunk baba came into the room and sat down. He was quiet until the bread was blessed. Then he stood up, said "HALLELUJAH", shook my hand and exited the building. One of the more bizarre things I have seen here!</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Work is going great as usual. We are coming into contact with many new families and it has been a blessing for us to teach them. Mxolisi started going teaching with us and he is a great help since he has a strong testimony and he can share in Zulu. Yesterday we fasted as a mission so we are hoping to reaching new growth as the year comes to a close.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Today we helped the elders in KwaDabeka move out of their old place. It is weird being here because I haven't been here since I was serving here in February of last year! Even know I am emailing in their chapel and it is bringing back some memories. For lunch the Hampshires took us to a restaurant called Rocomama's and I got this burger with black buns. The Hampshires are the best!!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Lastly, I enjoy working out and I got tired of doing the same pushups for almost 2 years. So I made my own weights out of cement. For free! Problem solved.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I had one of the best days of my life yesterday. It is like my whole mission has led up to the point where I am seeing many blessings in the work. We had 2 baptisms!! Mxolisi, a 23 year old guy and Nkanyiso, a 15 year old boy. Mxolisi's less active older brother Nduduzo came to church! (he hasn't been this year). Nkanyiso's whole family came to support!! He has an older brother named Fundo, who we have been teaching and is on B-Date. The most exciting thing is that his Mom and Dad came, both for the first time! They loved the baptismal service. Almost the entire branch piled into cars to Chatworth to see the baptism. There ended up being 60+ people there from Umbhedula!! We invited the Shange family to fellowship Nkanyiso's parents but pretty much the whole branch ended up welcoming them.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">The cherry on top was when Nkanyiso's father told us, "who knows, maybe you will see me here soon as well". I am so excited to be teaching a full father-led family!!!! I didn't sleep very well last night because I was very excited haha. This has given me much motivation to work hard to the end.</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">On Saturday we attended a Mormon Helping Hands event with our branch. We were scraping old tiles off in an old age retirement home. It was quite interesting.. good for a first start. We didn't have the proper equipment so the process took a lot longer than it needed too. Then the Young Men's President came in with a blowtorch and tried to heat the tiles to make them easier to scrape off. Didn't work. Smoke filled the room instead! I almost burnt my hand when I grabbed a hot scraper by mistake. Hopefully next week it goes smoother!</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I think it is pretty funny that now when we teach about prophets people get Russell M. Nelson confused with Nelson Mandela. Especially when we say, "President Nelson".</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Transfer #16 has officially begun! </span></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">This week has been quite different than the last few weeks of my mission. In a good way! Elder Cox is helping me to push myself and work harder and be more productive. We are doing the comp study activities in PMG most nights before bed. My studies have improved and I am feeling more of the spirit! The only main struggle I am having lately is my body has been low on energy. I think walking all these hills is the cause of that. But we are still working hard!</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">We have seen a few miracles this week. First, two of our people on B-Date passed their baptismal interviews! Mxolisi is a 19 year old guy that has family in the church and recently stopped smoking. Nkanyiso is a 15 year old boy who is a referral from one of the young men. His older brother Fundo is also being taught. We sat down with his mom and dad last night and explained more about the church and about baptism. They are going to come to see the baptism this Sunday! They seemed promising so I hope that this will be a turning point for them to receive the gospel.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">The Hillcrest Stake President, President Du Wet, gave an inspiring talk on tithing at branch conference. I hope that this will help the members to see the importance of it so that they can receive the blessings, including becoming a ward. </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Our goals for this transfer are to focus on member missionary work. We feel that this will be the quickest and most effective way to get Umbhedula jump started. We have already began setting appointments with members and planning for them!</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Enos 1:9,12 </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"> "Now, it came to pass that when I had heard these words I began to feel a desire for the welfare of my brethren, the Nephites; wherefore, I did pour out my whole soul unto God for them.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"> "And it came to pass that after I had <b>prayed</b> and <b>labored</b> with all diligence, the Lord said unto me: I will grant unto thee according to thy desires, because of thy<b>faith</b>."</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Something that I have learned earlier on my mission is how to accomplish our desires. We learn from the example of Enos that it takes faithful prayer and going out and working for it. If we pray for something and then sit around and wait, it won't come because we aren't showing God our faith. When we act in faith, He helps us to accomplish our desires!</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Somewhere up in the heavens, God is looking down upon me. And he is laughing. We received our transfer news. I am staying in Umbhedula and my new companion is Elder Cox. I am really excited to serve with him because we are already friends and he is a cool guy! He is very good at guitar so surely I will learn some nice skills from him. This is the ironic part. Last transfer I was released as a zone leader after serving for 9 months. I was very excited about that. So I was free from resposibility for 6 weeks. Then President Thompson told me that he is calling me to be a ZL again now. So much for a break, hahaha. I don't mind though, with every responsibility there is a chance for growth!</span></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I love this quote from James E. Faust:</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">"Hope is the anchor of our souls. I know of no one who is not in need of hope—young or old, strong or weak, rich or poor. As the prophet Ether exhorted, “Wherefore, whoso believeth in God might with surety hope for a better world, yea, even a place at the right hand of God, which hope cometh of faith, maketh an anchor to the souls of men, which would make them sure and steadfast, always abounding in good works, being led to glorify God.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Everybody in this life has their challenges and difficulties. That is part of our mortal test. The reason for some of these trials cannot be readily understood except on the basis of faith and hope because there is often a larger purpose which we do not always understand. Peace comes through hope."</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Hope led me through some difficult times recently. And now that hope has paid off, because I am in a happier situation now! Heavenly Father blesses us when we have patience through our trials.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">We moved into our area this week. The area is called Nagina, it is a 15 minute walk from the school where we hold church. Spent all of Saturday moving out. The new place is a big downsize, but cozy and easy to clean. Our landlords are a couple and they are very friendly. They even offered to come to church with us! Now we get a free ride to church instead of walking for an hour! I added some pictures of the new place so you can see.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">During sacrament meeting I went up to the pulpit and bore my testimony in full Zulu. It was one of the top 10 coolest things I have ever done. Some of the members were shocked. Check that off of my bucket list!!</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Somehow I have survived 21 months of being a full-time missionary! It blows my mind sometimes when I think about it. 3 months to go!!</span></span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">This Sunday we had the baptism of Ayanda Mbanjwa. Since we hold church at a school we had to drive to the nearest chapel with a baptismal font, which is in a town called Chatsworth. I included a video of how we got there: many of us piled in the back of a pickup truck. (which is illegal in the US but common in SA) Many members of Umhedula drove to the chapel to show their support! Poor Ayanda was feeling ill in the morning but she was able to power through the day. All in all it was a neat experience!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Here is a scripture that helped me this week: D&C 63:20</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">"Nevertheless, he that <b>endureth</b> in faith and <b>doeth</b> my will, the same shall <b>overcome</b>, and shall receive an inheritance upon the earth when the day of transfiguration shall come."</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">In order to overcome difficulties in our life, we must be patient with God's timetable and align His will with our's. Easier said than done, but it is a simple formula to remember when we are having hard times.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">For some reason a few people we have walked past have asked me for some "rice krispies". Not sure if that is a code word for something shady or if they want the actual cereal. If so I can imagine it would be hilarious.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Another week down. Good things are happening in Umbhedula! People are progressing well. Next week we will have the baptism of a woman named Ayanda. She has been investigating the church for several months now. We are also teaching a cool guy named Mxolisi. He has been trying to quit smoking. We showed up to his house this week and to me he looked noticeably different. He told us that he has put down the cigarettes! He came to church yesterday as well. There is also a family we are teaching with a father and his two sons.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">On Thursday the APs came to our area so I got to work with Elder Sala again. It was so nice. We worked with a member who served with him back in the Harare, Zimbabwe mission. We ate tripe together! It is cow intestines. Pretty tasty with bread. On Friday the ZLs came to our area so I got to work with Elder Russell for the day. We are friends already and he started his mission in this area so we had a great day meeting and talking to people.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">On Monday we took a taxi to Hillcrest, where Elder Hinnen is serving. 6 of us ate at this burger joint as shown in the picture. There is also this cool card shop there called "the bat cave" that my little brother would enjoy very much. We were at the chapel and President Thompson showed up to interview some missionaries. He gave me the keys to his Ford Ranger and R200 and told me to drive and pick up some McFlurries! Not going to lie it felt so nice to drive again. My legs are being sufficiently worked each week.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: inherit;">Combined Zone Conference: Hillcrest & Durban Zones! On Tuesday we had a massive conference at the Berea Chapel. We took a big taxi from Pinetown to Durban with our whole zone. There were 34 missionaries there! Attached is a picture of 5 of my last 6 companions. The other one is serving as a branch president in Newcastle while still a missionary. I can't imagine having to do that!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">The work in Umbhedula is getting there. We have 3 solid people that we teach each week. We found 2 new families that we are starting to teach! Members are still being very helpful with giving us rides. I think I am used to walking now. It went from blazing hot to freezing cold in one day! I have devoted free time in the evenings to improving my Zulu knowledge.</span></div>

I am so happy to receive this news!!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: inherit;">This week was legendary. We were on foot!! I have so many stories and miracles to share. I won't even be able to list them all! Also these days I will have less time to email because I will be in an email shop. I will have less pictures each week because I can't take my camera to the area due to being on foot. Safety reasons.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Elder Hinnen turned a year a mission this week. I can't believe it's been that long since I trained him! They grow up so fast!</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Catching taxis is so cool. We walk up to the side of the road and wait until the taxi with the sticker color we want passes by. The one we look for has a yellow leopard. Then we flag it down by holding up a certain sign with our hands that corresponds with different parts of our area. For example, to get to our area we point one finger downward. It costs 6R to get to where we work each day. My legs are really sore from walking. We measured it and in one day we walked 11Ks, so times that by 7. I'm getting cooked by the sun as well. It takes us 45 minutes to get to our area each day, including a 30 minute walk. We are looking to move into the location soon to save time and money.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Umbhedula branch meets at a preschool called Insizwakazi Primary School. The members are incredibly helpful to us. I have seen so many miracles in just this week alone. 5 people gave us rides in the area. Some taxis have dropped us for free. Members are willing to walk with us. They give many referrals! We went tracting with a member and almost every single person let us in. 2 member referrals agreed to be baptized, both are potential priesthood holders! We even tracted into a father-led family who we taught the Restoration. God is seriously blessing us.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Due to the new schedule, we get out early and are in early. The first few day of walking I was so tired that I would sleep at 8:30pm and wake up at 6am the next morning. Also I'm eating a ton of food now because I burn it all off during the day. It is so nice! One day we failed to catch a taxi home so we had to walk 90 minutes all the way home. I was so tired!! This week was a blast and flew by. I am very excited for the new changes that have taken place.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: inherit;">Please bear with me. The email situation isn't sorted out yet. I won't be able to get up all the pictures I want to. Or have enough time to properly respond to everyone. I am sorry.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Umbhedula is an awesome area. Very hilly, cool windy climate for now. Yesterday was our last day with the cars so we are officially on foot. We have no idea how to use taxis. Tomorrow will be an interesting day. The members are great and they have been very helpful looking for places to rent so that we can stay in our area. Safety is the main concern now. The mission schedule changed so that we are out earlier and back home before dark, which in winter is 6pm.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: inherit;">Sunday was an amazing experience. Sam, who turned 24 a week ago, was baptized! His mother and his wife, who is not a member, came to witness it. The spirit was present as we sang hymns and 2 of the YSA brethren gave talks. Sam was baptized by Bishop van Thiel. Afterwards he bore a powerful testimony, thanking his family and sharing what he has gained from the gospel. The ward is happy and welcoming to him! Later in the day we went over to his house to talk to him. He said he feels so clean and pure after being baptized. I'm so grateful for the Lord for granting me the opportunity to be a part of such a life changing event.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>Transfer News: </b>I'm leaving after an epic 6 months of serving in Amanzimtoti Ward. I love the members here. They have treated me like their son! I'm sure my Mom will be happy to read that. The last few days I have been running around saying goodbye to people. It is a little heartbreaking, but now I just say, "I'll message you in 4 months!" Technology is great. This morning I went to say goodbye to Bishop and his wife Candy and they made us pancakes for breakfast! I feel like a piece of my heart will be left in Toti when I leave on Wednesday.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I am going to Umbhedula Branch. It is a township outside of Pinetown. Which means I am going back to Hillcrest Stake, next door to Durban. I think that I will be on bikes, but definitely walking. My new companion is Elder Walker. I don't know him well yet, but I know he is from Britain. I have enjoyed my time with Elder Warner and I wish him the best of luck moving forward! Toti is the right place for a solid, hard working missionary like him.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">In other news, we ran into a second man who studied theology (the baptist minister from last week was the first). Upon introducing ourselves, this man told us that we are "indoctrinated teenagers". That was a nice chat! I think it is funny the different people we run into as missionaries. You never never what you are going to find!</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: inherit;">Some highlights from this week:</span><br />
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">1) Zone Conference on Wednesday! The theme was "converted unto the Lord". I gave a 30 minute presentation on cultivating a spirit of hard work. Overall the day went quite well! All the speakers did an excellent job and, of course, donuts for dessert.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">2) I was at the mission office this week going through some recent data and records. I had the thought to look up baptisms of areas I had served in, after I left. I wanted to see which people I had started to teach were able to progress on and make it all the way. I was shocked to find the names of 10 people I taught that had been baptized after I left! It was a humbling experience that strengthened my testimony of planting seeds of faith. Sometimes we aren't around to see the help we are to people!</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">3) On Saturday our goal was to walk the whole day as a test in preparation for losing our car next month. Our initial plan was to walk 30 minutes to a member's home, where he would go with us for the day and show us how to catch a taxi to KwaMakhutha. Our plans were doubly spoiled because it was a holiday so there were no taxis, and because there happened to be too much crime going on in that area for the weekend. We were forced instead to walk around town for the day, which lead to an encounter with a baptist minister who immediately attacked our faith.. "the bible is sufficient alone for salvation". It is a long story. Quite an interesting day to say the least!</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">This week I want to focus on having a positive attitude. I am sure that Heavenly Father wants me to be happy while doing his work. Attitude changes behavior! This might be my last week in Toti so I need to give it everything I've got.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: inherit;">Short email this time because not much happened this week. I was out of commission during the weekend due to a cold. I feel better today. We were able to work a full day yesterday so I am recovering! Being sick as a missionary is the worst because you just feel locked up in your home all day and you want to go out and teach people but your body won't let you. I am looking forward to getting back on my feet tomorrow!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">On Saturday night we went to Quinton and Camilla's wedding reception. Camilla is the sister of our landlord and she served a mission in Australia. Quinton was baptized just over a year ago. They were both sealed in the Johannesburg Temple on Wednesday! Their reception was held at a nice lodge nearby our old flat. Even though I was sick, going to the party was so nice. We ate great food and laughed and danced! Everyone was so happy. Many pictures this week!</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Nothing else new for now. Sam is getting baptized this Sunday. I probably have 2 more weeks in Toti and then I'll go to my last area. If I had to guess. I love the members here so much!!</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">This week has been wonderful. I have gained a testimony of the principle of following up and not giving up on people. Earlier on my mission I would drop people quite quickly if I didn't think that they would progress soon. With Elder Warner we spent 2 weeks following up on people I taught with Elder Sala. One house we visited every day, and the person was never home! This week everything came together and many of those people we regained contact with.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">As a result, 3 of those people set a date to be baptized and a 4th person came to church for the first time this Sunday! We have been teaching her on and off for 3-4 months before she finally was able to keep the commitment of coming to church. It goes to show that people's concerns are real and that they take time to open up.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">We experienced a big miracle this week. On Friday we had an appointment set that fell through. We knocked on another door to see if they know where that person was. A woman answered the door and said she didn't know. We were preparing to leave, but first we opened our mouths to see if she would be interested in hearing about the gospel. She was talking to us and mid-sentence began sobbing uncontrollably. She told us how she has been really sick for a long time time and how she can't afford medical care. We stood there and listened, wondering what to do. I had no idea what to say. Her partner came out and he started talking to us. Since we still didn't know what to do, I offered to come into their small room for a second and say a prayer with them. After that we gave them a Book of Mormon and the man told us that he had received one many years back but he was too busy then. Right now he is looking for work so he has more time. We invited them to come to church and they accepted. We figured that would be the best thing we can do to help them. 2 days later they showed up at church!! Now we have a new family to teach that can benefit greatly from the teachings of Jesus Christ. I am thankful that Heavenly Father allowed us to have this experience. I feel humbled after witnessing these recent events.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Mormon 9:11,18-21 "But behold, I will show unto you a God of miracles, even the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob; and it is that same God who created the heavens and the earth, and all things that in them are.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">And who shall say that Jesus Christ did not do many mighty miracles? And there were many mighty miracles wrought by the hands of the apostles. </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">And if there were miracles wrought then, why has God ceased to be a God of miracles and yet be an unchangeable Being? And behold, I say unto you he changeth not; if so he would cease to be God; and he ceaseth not to be God, and is a God of miracles. </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">And the reason why he ceaseth to do miracles among the children of men is because that they dwindle in unbelief, and depart from the right way, and know not the God in whom they should trust. </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Behold, I say unto you that whoso believeth in Christ, doubting nothing, whatsoever he shall ask the Father in the name of Christ it shall be granted him; and this promise is unto all, even unto the ends of the earth."</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I would say that this scripture has been a summary of how my week went. I see many miracles every day! This is a special time in my life. I know that I won't be able to do this for much longer, so better make the most of it while I can. Also last night we watched the Testaments movie with a recent convert. 10/10 would recommend!</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Love you all and enjoy life!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: inherit;">Another week in Toti! Elder Warner and I are doing a great work here. We have been finding a lot more than I was before and opening our mouths. This week we had 6 quality new investigators: Andile, Njabulo, Ntokozo (3 men); Byron, Catherine and Makayla (the family and friend of a member of the Elder's Quorum Presidency. We taught them in his home). The focus lately has been on people as individuals and familes, getting to know them and planning for them. In a week it is easy for us to find many new people to teach, but we have to work more effectively to find people who are serious. </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Missionary Leadership Counsel was awesome, I thought that it was the best one I have been to since the one at the Drakensberg Mountains back in October. I love how much counseling we did together. As leaders of the mission we have a huge effect on the effectiveness of missionaries because of the example we set. Also we have a voice in decided if any changes need to take place to help the mission grow.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>NEWS: </b>At MLC it was announced to us that effective July 1st, there will only be 2 cars in the mission. One for President Thompson and the mission van for transfers. So in one month, we will all be walking or biking permanently. Now we are prepping our zones for that by looking at taxi prices, safety of areas, scheduling, etc. It was a big shock, but walking isn't a huge deal so I don't mind. It will help me stay in shape. At least it is only for 4 months :)</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Our most progressing investigators is a man named Sam. I have written about him briefly before. He is the son of a recent convert, around 25 years old. He works at Checkers. We have been teaching him since February and 2 months ago he set a goal to be baptized right after his birthday, on the 17th of June. He was at church for the 2nd time today and he is getting excited for his baptism! Sam has a solid testimony of Joseph Smith and he reads the Book of Mormon and keeps commandments. I am very excited for his progress moving forward!</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Attached is a picture of 9 year old Baya Masondo before her baptism. Her older brother Thobane was the one to baptize her. It was a tender experience to witness, especially since it was his first time performing a baptism! Also attached is some failed banana bread I made. I forgot to use self-raising flour, and ran out of sugar. It tasted like banana flavored wheat bread. Mom would be proud of me!</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: inherit;">Post-transfers.. back into the swing of things now! On Wednesday we drove to Pinetown to drop off Elder Sala and pick up Elder Warner. He is the assigned driver right now, which I am happy about. I have drove every day since July of last year! The mission office finally decided to let me have a break. Elder Warner is from American Fork, Utah. Funny that he is my first companion from Utah after being a missionary for so long. He is a sweet guy and he enjoys music and reading.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">This week we have been working very hard. Lots of contacting. Unfortunately we didn't find many people, but the Lord blessed us in other way. 4 different people came to church this Sunday for their first time! Two of them were brought by one of our progressing investigators, one was brought by a member, and the other one just showed up randomly. It was very neat to see prepared people fall right into our hands. Josh was confirmed today and both him and Sibusiso received the Aaronic Priesthood! Also the attendance of Toti Ward is increasing steadily each week, so we should break 100 in the next few weeks.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Lately I feel that I have been putting in more effort lately, kind of like my spirits have been lifted. Serving for a long time has taught me about the important principle of endurance. Things go much smoother when we put our feet forward and continue to move in the right direction. Conversely, when we remain stagnant time seems to drag and we don't enjoy each day. It has been a blessing for me to reflect each night on the work we did during the day. Then when I put my head on my pillow I fall asleep very quickly. I guess that's what makes missionary work go so quickly.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">I hope you are all doing well! I'm sure it is getting hot in the US now. I have come to terms with the fact that it won't get cold here, so I'll enjoy while I can and then when I go back to BYU I'll get blasted with the cold and snow. Looking forward to it!</span></div>
