Week 51 - 👀 Molweni

 


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 they even invited their sister, Samke, to join as well. We got to have a good talk about the Book of Mormon and how it blesses our lives. Other then that, same old same old

Saturday: Normal missionary tings, we had some lessons, did some finding… and put Nonkululeko and her son on date! Elder Narag and I are super excited for the choice they’ve made and look forward to preparing them for this sacred covenant.

Sunday: The Stake President was at sacrament today in Molweni, which made the low attendance that much more devastating. But it was still a nice Sunday. Elder Narag and I got volunteered to do the Sunday School lesson, and in the evening we had our monthly PMG devotional, where all the missionaries in the mission hop on a Zoom call to get edified. We learned more about the scriptures and their necessity in conversion.

Hope everybody is doing well! This will also serve as your reminder to take heed of the Prophets counsel and go serve in the Temple if you can (if you don't know what I'm talking about flag down your local missionaries) Sale Kahle ✌🏼

Howsit folks, I hope everyone's doing well. I just realized that this is 3 months out, holy cow time flies by! Let's get right into it Monday: We couldn't go out to teach in the morning because our car was busted. But for lunch, I attempted to eat a McDonalds share bag. It consists of 1 Big Mac, 1 cheeseburger, 1 chicken burger, 1 spicy chicken burger, 2 regular and small fries, 2 regular and small drinks, and 10 nuggets, all for about 230 rand (12ish bucks). It was, what we in the business call, a mistake. I was able to eat everything but one small fry and a Big Mac. I was also dying. We also went to play golf, which I am moderately better at, and even got to play mini golf, though the course we played on wasn't very big. Tuesday: Had a really good appointment in the morning with Mandisa, who we think is really interested in our message. We also met with a less active member, tried to help him feel God's love for him even though he drifted away from the covenant pa

Hi guys... so I kinda forgot to keep track of the days as they were happening, so this email may be slightly lacking, but here goes Monday: Pretty boring P-Day, Elder Dlamini got his hair cut which took like two hours, then we shopped and played Rummikub (I won 😎) Tuesday: Nothing super interesting Wednesday: Zone Conference day!!! We had great trainings from our zone leaders, APs, and President and Sister De Cock. One really good think was the importance of member missionary moments. The benefit that comes from members helping out in missionary work, giving them a taste of the joy we spread, is not only helpful to the missionaries, but also the members and the person they're helping. I was also able to talk more with members of the Mission, which is always fun. Thursday: I decided to take Sister De Kocks advise and drink water throughout the day, it helped somewhat but it was still hot. Other than that nothing much happened. We tracted a less utilized area so no powerful lessons

Monday: It was Elder Kearls final P-Day, he dies next week 🥲. We started the day doing gardening work at Sister Msomi's, and then we went to lunch at Pana-Rottis, and Italian place here. We then did some shopping around the mall and played more Rummikub (I won again, undefeated 😎) Tuesday: We turned one bunk into 3 lessons, absolutely stacked our Friday (more on that Friday) and got bunked a lot in the afternoon. I definitely felt the spirit in the lessons we had today though. However it was raining, and it's possible I caught a cold. Wednesday: We had our District Council with the Zone Leaders today, and Elder Brown went on exchange with Elder Dlamini so he could do a baptismal interview for the Pietermaritzburg missionaries. Nothing super eventful today. We met with Princess, whose testimony is getting more powerful every time we meet with her. That's about it though, we're building up to Friday 😈 Thursday: Yo, today was boring, we didn't have that many lessons
