This week has been a good week
for us. We are working with some great investigators as I said... but none
of them with a date yet. I think we need to start extending dates soon though.
I really want to see one more baptism before I go. I hope as well that I can
see one more LA go through the temple before I go. I don’t have that much time
left!!!!
We taught our Ugandan family again about
the importance of the BofM. We are also teaching Charlotte I can't remember if I
told you about her. She is a 16 year old girl in the ward who is PM she is not
a member but her mom is and she and her mum come to church and she is pretty
much just a dry Mormon! We have been planning on teaching her the commandments.
She is really good and needs to be baptized she needs the Holy Ghost!" I think she might be
scared of her father and his reaction though. Please keep them both in your
prayers. We have been fasting and praying for them each week to hope that a
miracle will come.
As far as RCs they are doing great
the ones you know. I heard Emiliano he is dating this girl from Bolivia who is a
member so we will see how that goes. I thought that was pretty great. He is such a good bloke and really wants
to get sealed in the temple,
Jonathan and Debi are awesome. Debi is
teaching us to bake English foods... It is kind of funny cuz she in 0% English she
is South African and Portuguese! But hey, I need to learn to make crumpets
before I go home and she said she would teach us. She and Jonathan are rock
stars.
Man this week wasn’t a boring week but
my email has kind of been sorry. I can’t
think of any really good stories right now...
I loved meeting Elder Nelson last
week. That was so sweet and quite the
shocker. He came to see his daughter who is serving with her husband in the
temple here. He came into the office and
we were all shocked!!! There was a missionary from Botswana who was going home
and he was in the office when he introduced himself and said he was from Botswana
Elder Nelson said "Oh... I dedicated Botswana in 1992." All of us
were like... Wow, who but an apostle can say that, yeah very few people
can say that! Elder Nelson was also a lot taller then what I thought. On TV he
looks smaller but no he is probably like six foot taller than me... It was pretty amazing to meet and talk to him.
Well that is about all the news I
can think of for now.
Love ya all
Elder M. White
