Home Invasion

Image
  Yo this week was wacked.  We got robbed Friday night. Our apartment was broken into during the night. They came in through the window in the living room. They broke the burglar bars off of the window, climbed in, took our keys and opened the front door and took both of our bikes, my airpods, and the complex’s gate clicker.  They also took our car key, but we found the car key outside the next day 15 feet away from the window. The creepy part of this was my companion and I were just dead asleep 10 feet away while this was all happening. You can see my bed and me from the window where they broke into and climbed through to get in the apartment.  I'm just thankful they didn't harm my comp and I, because if they wanted to, they totally could have as we were both fast asleep, lol. Truly it is a blessing we were protected.         The most interesting part of all of this was that that same night before I went to bed, I was sit...

Baptisms And Strikes

Image
This week was pretty eventful. But, I'm gonna keep this one short.  We had the baptism of Thabile Jack.  It was awesome, she was super excited. The Baptismal font is outside so that was kinda cool. Also, I gave a talk on Baptism during the program and honestly from the faces they were giving it seemed like they couldn't understand me very well, or maybe my talk was garbage, hahaha. But the baptism was super spiritual. After the baptism, our bishop introduced us to a guy after that is coming church and watched the baptism, and he told us he wants to be baptized. That was really cool, so we'll be teaching him soon. I can't remember his name because I'm still working on the names here, lol.        Also, after church, we met with our friend Athini and had a great lesson about the Gospel of Jesus Christ. He told us he wants to be baptized, so we put him on date. Then right after we had to drive all the way down to East London. Which is a 2-hour drive. We ha...

Illange In The Rain

Image
Yo, this week was good. We had some great lessons, especially in Illinge. Tuesday it started absolutely pouring rain, and there was lightning and thunder which literally lit up the whole sky. It made it look like mid-day for a second. But it was fun walking around in the rain and mud. Our alarm system to our church wouldn't set for some reason. And also, the chapel door is really annoying to lock. So, I was trying super hard to lock it and I broke the handle and the key off from the rest of it, lol. So, we had to track down the ward clerk who is an 18-year-old kid, lol. And we didn't know where he lived so we had to track him down in the rain, mud and dark. But we found him and we got the chapel locked up. Also, at the Queenstown chapel the storge room caught on fire and half the room is just black now.         We had a great lesson with our friend Thabile. She's getting Baptized this coming Sunday. So, we're super excited for her. She's super elect. The rest of...
