Ty's Mission to Durban, South Africa

Monday: P-Day as always. We played some rugby and got lunch, that’s about all that’s interesting. (The words are the same because the day is the same) Tuesday: We found 3 people today, which is good because in the entirety of last week we only found 4. We taught some people went home, and got myself a anniversary treat for hitting one year   (it was a bar of chocolate) Wednesday: We did a lot of contacting in the morning, had some lessons in the afternoon. Thursday: We had a pretty good DC today, had 1 lesson with a member, and we were early to our next lesson. Striving to be as productive as possible, we thought we would go and check on one of our less active members. We go over and knock, they’re not home. Ok, no problem, lets go to our lesson. Go to car, battery dead. Major shame right. So we call our roadside assistance people, they call someone to jump us and say it will be about 45 minutes (it’s 3:15ish at this point). Ok, no problem, we want to keep being productive, so...

  Monday: P-Day as always. We played some rugby and got lunch, that’s about all that’s interesting. Tuesday: Pretty good day. I got to dawn my technology helper hat and help get someones missionary portal open, as well as set up someones church account. We also visited some less active members and sang some childrens songs with our primary president, since she is new and doesn’t really know them. Wednesday: Had DC on Wednesday this week, had a pretty lekker time. After that we got some lunch, went and visited some people. We met with one of our less active friends who is pretty cool, but is having a hard time. We’re hoping to be able to help him feel the love of Jesus Christ and know that he has someone to turn to. Thursday: We had a video lesson today, which was meh. After that we helped one of our less actives move somewhere with less bad influences. Friday: We taught a part member family, one of the daughters is getting baptized soon so we’re teaching all the necessary things. T...

  Monday: Not a super interesting P-day, Elders Tolley and Banks needed to be delivered to the mission office to go home, Elder Peterson and Elder King went with, leaving the rest of us to just chill at the chapel. Tuesday: We had a pretty decent finding session today, we found two people who could be promising. Other then that nothing new. Wednesday: We did some less active work in the morning which was nice, but the afternoon was pretty disappointing. The thing about townships is that you're a lot more likely to get in the door, but a lot of the doors you get into won't really progress much. It can get frustrating to see people not do the little things to help themselves. Thursday: Had a lekker DC today, even though most of 2 of our missionaries were ageko  . After that we had a few ok lessons and a pretty good lesson with one of the people we found on Tuesday, Tombehle.  Friday: We had a really good lesson with some people we found last week, Phumlele and Zanele, and t...
