The time has flown by! This week was amazing! My final email, 100 weeks in a row! My mission has been a completely transformative experience, and I wouldn't change it for anything. I don't have my journal to recap the week so I'll use this email as more of a thank you email. However, I'll first give a couple of highlights that I can remember off the top of my head. We had the baptisms of 9 of our friends on Sunday which was amazing! The chapel was overflowing and the Mission president and senior couples even came and joined the service. I had a trio exchange with Adam's and Adolphson, two of the guys I'll be flying home with tomorrow. We taught a pastor and his main men inside of their tin shack fire church, brother Masutha even joined. We had a nice farewell braii with the Rampes, Masutha, President Baitlotli, high councilor Molemi, and Adolphson/ Hansen. It was a lot of fun and I'm so grateful for all the help they gave us in our missionary efforts. I appreciate each and every one of you, the support you've sent me through emails, messenger, letters, etc. I'm grateful for the prayers offered and love shown every step of the way. I'm grateful for the companions and missionaries that I served around, and the impact they've had on me. Most of all I'm so Grateful for my Savior Jesus Christ and the transformative effect that He and His atonement have had on me. I would love to see those of you who could make it to my homecoming talk this Sunday or join over zoom. The address, time, and link will be at the bottom of this email. Thank you again for everything you have each done. See y'all soon!

Love, 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.

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...
