Said bye to some mission friends at the airport who completed their missions (Sebakile, Whitworth, Opheikens, and Wheeler) Had many great lessons with Sticks and Kefilwe during the week Gibb took some little kids bike to our car and fixed it for them Had a dinner appointment at the EQP's home with the ZL's and sisters. It's one of the very few houses I've seen that has a PS5 in it. Transfer calls/ transfers were this week, Elder Gibb and I will both be staying. I only have 1 transfer left after this one! I found Mopane worms so I could cook them for my flat Asi, Leavitt, and Mosweswe came over so we lined the living room with mattresses and had a wrestling tournament, it was crazy We were in a trio with Mosweswe from friday-sunday while he waited for his greenie to come in. It was a...

Tuesday: We had a handful of lessons today, as well as weekly planning, and then cleaning the stake center since they were hosting a conference of sorts there. The 2 highlights were the twins who came into the chapel and asked for a tour, and our lesson with Shado/ her family. While we cleaned the chapel 2 identical twin brothers walked in and asked for a tour so we obliged, and then connected them with the missionaries for their area.  Our lesson with Shado was about temples and it was great, we even put 2 of her daughters on date which was amazing. Wednesday: We did our grocery shopping today and Elder Gibb decided he only wanted to eat hotdogs for the week. So I didn't have to buy any meat because he said I can have what's already in the freezer from last week. We had a great lesson with Sticks, Kefilwe, and Rasta. We taught them the W.O.W and law of chastity and they were really receptive. We...

Photos and Videos: https://photos.app.goo.gl/ MFPZwtqJzkJtZWVQ8 Hello again. Let's get this started. Tuesday: Our Tuesday began as it usually does, with weekly planning, studies, and a bomb breakfast of pancakes and peaches. We went to go proselytizing for the day and got a couple of lessons before our lunch break. We got some very good butter chicken with garlic Naan. The Office Elders met us there to drop off our companion for the day, Elder Niutupuivaha, from Tonga.  We picked up the sisters to drop them at a sisters gathering and then headed back to the area. On our way back we may have gotten into a slight collision. First time for everything I suppose, luckily everyone was fine and the guy was chill. Once that was resolved we had to pick the sisters and drop them at their home. We managed to teach a few lessons before going home but we missed most of them. Wednesday: We had an early morning run to the body shop and then went to Zone Conference. It was all about becoming PMG ...

Highlights: Photos and Videos: https://photos.app.goo.gl/ A4VmwzuGVSRWVz7QA We taught that really cool family of about 10 people that we found last week, a few times. We went to teach a few adults, when we arrived like 12 kids came and we ended up teaching 20 people. We did a lot of finding and teaching with Brother Masutha, still a dawg. We had a few great lessons with Kefilwe and Sticks, they're so eager to learn. Their 2 neighbour's, Maatla and Resego joined us as well. We were teaching a lesson and then, during the lesson some drunk people started fighting for condoms right in front of us We received a Bakkie (truck) and a new companion, Elder Sekgopi, for the day. We dropped Sekgopi at the airport so he could fly to his designated mission. Made come cookies for DCM. Let's just say don't judge a book by its cover, they were really ugly We put Sister Shado on date, she is a slow learner but has a great desire. Helped some random guys push a car for 30 minutes whilst...
