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 missionaries, it was very insightful and as always, fun to see and share a meal with everyone!


All our lessons cancelled but one, so we taught Teenabow/ Mandisa with their mother Bontle (Member). They're so smart and are preparing to get baptized together on Wandisa’s 8th birthday which is in August.


Thursday:


Today was so good! We managed to have 12 lessons and a few really stood out! We had an amazing lesson with sister Shado who's on date for baptism, there were also like 10 youth there.


They asked us to teach them how to read the hymn book so I did just that. Then I turned to Elder Gibb and offered to them that he could do a solo, they loved that… he didn't (video in link)


Friday:


We took a long commute in the morning to find the chapel keys, we then went to the chapel for DCM. It was pretty good, the highlight was the Sisters brownies. It's always good to be spiritually fed, followed up with being physically fed


We taught a few lessons and then picked up the sisters to bring them to a member that is deep in our area. Upon dropping them off the member came out and gave us a whole pizza. Shout out to brother and sister Moremong.


We had a handful of more lessons, the best of which were again with Sister Bontke and her kids as well as our lesson with Moses. He's very smart when he's not drunk…


Saturday:


We got 10 lessons today, and we were with Brother Masutha for most of it. This guy is an absolute unit, I've never seen someone so keen for missionary work in my life. 


We had a great lesson with Kefilwe/Rasta and Shado again. We sang an opening hymn for our lesson with Shado and her family and it was amazing, until some people started laughing due to disclosed reasons…


Sunday:


We managed to have 9 of our friends come to church which was a blessing! We had no lessons for the day so we just went out to the area. 


As we stopped at our first house we saw Bro Masutha checking on people who missed church (like I said, an absolute beast). He said he was hoping we'd take him out, so we went finding the whole day with him haha. We met a couple of cool people.


We ended the night by dropping off chocolates and notes to the senior couples for mothers day, it was a lot of fun :)


Monday:


Today consisted of sleep, 8-ball, cleaning, fire Italian lunch, and a great devotional at the Walkers. The whole Gabs zone gathered together and we had a devotional about putting on the Armour of God.


Conclusion:


We had another great week, the work is just snowballing each week. And, we're having a lot of fun doing it! Take care, read your scriptures, pray daily, and happy Mothers day!


Have a great week,


Elder Miller

photos and videos:  https://photos.app.goo.gl/ 7pfMaK2E4tXivPWY7 Welcome back to another email, hopefully there are some interesting parts this week! Tuesday: We began the day with weekly planning as we do every Tuesday, it's the worst part of the week. Afterwards we got lunch and hit the area. We had a lot of lessons today but the highlights were with Sticks and Kefilwe who we reviewed the baptismal interview with, they just need to get married. Then a yellow dot named Kago who I absolutely clapped with the Bible, with christlike love of course. Usually I try to avoid throwing bible verses back and forth since it typically leads to contention but every time he said something contrary to the true gospel of Jesus Christ I had to give him a few verses. Lastly, I'll highlight our lesson with Peaches, Habo, and Kealeboga who also always come to church. They're on date for baptism on the 22nd, they're a great family! Wednesday: Today was pretty mid, we met with a few recent ...

BOTSWANA NAMIBIA MISSION

Dear Christopher and Julie Miller, It brings us great joy to announce that Elder Miller is preparing to return home after completing an honorable mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the Botswana Namibia Mission. During his time of service, Elder Miller has experienced remarkable spiritual growth. He has strengthened his relationship with Jesus Christ while sharing the restored gospel with countless individuals. Furthermore, he has witnessed the transformative impact the Doctrine of Christ has had on himself, as well as the friends he has taught.

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...
