Yeah, this week was a good one. That is so
cool that you guys are by the ocean, that really seems like a great
trip for you two. Yeah, Anne did come with Pres. Hunter, and it was awesome to see
the both of them. Elder Cook came to do a mission tour, so he saw all
the missionaries in the mission. It was a super powerful training.
Transfer news will be in 2 more weeks. I honestly think I will train.
Don't worry, I'm not gettin' too trunky. It is a weird feeling almost
being done, but I'm okay, really. Anyways, the work is going along
really well this week. We had some good success with new people to
teach. First off, we should be having our baptisms on the 5th for Prossy
and Charles, then we should be having a few for the 19th. Joseph Tuwine
and his daughter. Just humble people. Really cool. Excited about the
gospel. Then we have a guy named Michael Komakech who has been less
active for about 2 years. He was baptized with his daughter and the rest
of the family was hardened from some anti-Mormon stuff or something. So
he went off drinkin' for a long while. But he came back, and wants to
repent he said, and he wants us to teach the rest of his family. That
means 4 kids and a wife to teach. It'll be great. Then we also had some
new investigators come to church randomly, so that is even better. The
work is just awesome. To top it off, the Chatfields came to visit for
church in Mutungo yesterday, and we just had the best attendance ever.
Highest in any branch or ward in the mission. Mutungo ward will be
splitting soon hopefully, and also getting a chapel. It's only been
around for 5 years! This place is good, I'm tellin' ya.
No
really great stories other than the work this week. Mostly just the
same stuff every day. Teach a few lessons, struggle with someone who
doesn't speak English, get confronted by a drunk guy, it's all normal
haha. Oh, I had hippo meat this week... By the way...
Haha mom, if you are stressin' over a few
windy roads, you would die here. We went into Owiino market today,
which is in the center of Kampala, and it was just so hectic. Traffic
here is insane. You would just die if you saw it. People know the
corners of their cars REALLY well here. I am so tired of vehicles in Uganda. I can't wait for sane, normal driving on paved roads in Utah.
That
sounds like you guys' trip is really good so far. I am glad, cause you
really deserve to have a nice relaxing time together. I wanna see the
redwoods one day. That place seems really cool. It seems like everyone
back home is doin' great!
I don't really know
exactly when I will be traveling or anything. I think I will be home on
the 21st in American time haha. That is just my educated guess from
seeing others go home. So I think I will be home on that day. That is
so weird to know that Jordan is home... dang. I really am gonna be the
last one, huh? No problem. Everyone will just have to be at my
homecoming I guess.
Well momma, I hope your trip is just the best. Stay happy. D&C 136:29. It's a good one! Love you so much!
