Hey

Hey, Hey, Hey!

Life is going great over here in the R of SA!

One of my favorite things about serving here in The Mamelodi 2cd ward is that they are very good at singing the church hims, and it make me feel great!

We got to Finnish conference on sunday and that was awesome! It's so great to have a living prophet to guide us! What a wonderful change, to make the home/visiting teaching a more personalized ministry!

There aer such wonderful people here in Mamelodi!

And we have two awesome investigators that we are teaching, Named Lucky, and Mpumi. They are about 16 years old, Mpumi is a young women and has been coming to church pretty often, and lucky is a young man and has been coming to church every sunday since i got here. They were brought to church by one of there friends and its way cool to see young people get involved in missionary work!

We were driving around our area and got up on a pretty cool hill where i took a picture of a small portion of the more well off  part of our area.

I dont have a scripture this week. But just a short bit of advice. Read the Book of Mormon every day. It will help you so much, to overcome anything you're facing.

Anyway, thats it for this week! I'll talk to you all later!

Love Elder Smith

Happy Birthday

Heeeeeellllllooooo!?

How is everybody!

This week was interesting. We had a lot of cancellations or dodged appointments because of good Friday and Easter and everything, as well many people were out o town. They take holidays very seriously in africa. That is one thing for sure.

The amount of people that have birthdays in march and April is a little ridiculous. We have been going to parties and keep having people say they want us to come.

Transfers happened this week as well, i am still in Mamelodi with elder Fitzgerald. But we do have a new member of our district, who was trained by the same Elder that trained me, so that is exciting. His name is Elder Ludloff.

But we got to watch some of general conference and that was awesome.

I love this general conference and all that they shared and talked about.

I know that Russell M Nelson, is Gods true living prophet upon the earth! 

There was so many wonderful talks and things that were shared at conference and i loved them all. I especially felt such a wonderful spirit as members of Gods kingdom around the earth stood and sustained our dear prophet.

The scripture for this week is Alma 17-18. I love these two chapter because it shows how service really can change lives and help us to be an example of our savior Jesus Christ.

Anyway, i love you guys! 

Stay strong and follow the prophet!

Elder Smith
