This week was the last week of the transfer and I was exhausted! But I’m energetic and ready for a new transfer!

I’m trying to think back on the week and recall special events that happened.. it was a long week because we had a lot of fall through appointments and our teaching pool has gone way down, so this week we will be working hard on bringing it back up and hopefully will start baptizing again in a few weeks!

On Tuesday we had a very long, but very good zone meeting. This time on mission is a once in a lifetime opportunity and we are engaged in such an amazing work. It is the Lord’s work and as long as we always have our purpose in mind and do what we are supposed to do, we will be so blessed. This is not our time, it is the Lord’s time.

So funny story of the week:Tuesday evening at one of our appointments in our very far area, I went to the car to get a Book of Mormon out of the boot for the lesson and I accidentally shut the boot with the keys inside of it. Luckily the doors were unlocked so I went to open the door but right before I grabbed the handle, the doors locked. Don’t ask who’s smart idea it was to make a car that automatically locks itself, or who’s smart idea it was to give Sister Burt such a car. So here we are stranded in the middle of nowhere, with nothing but our scriptures. I had left my bag in the car with all my money, the phone, and everything in it. So we ended up having to walk down the small mountain we were on to go to the main road and luckily my comp had a $50 bill so we were able to find a kombi that had $48 change, mostly in $5’s and $1’s and we went to Edna’s house where we were able to buy airtime and use her sister’s phone to call the zone leaders who’s number we were able to get through a funny but very fortunate connection Edna had. So they came with a spare key and we were able to get our car! At first they had us convinced that they didn’t have the spare key and that they were either going to have to use a wire hanger or break the window. Thankfully that didn’t happen and we made it home by the end of the night!

Yesterday Effort, Munashe and Craig were able to be confirmed! So excited for those ones, and now they can start preparing for missions!

Other than that and besides the mourning of Sister Bergen and elder Mhlungu leaving the district, I’m excited for a new week and a new transfer!

I love you all. Keep up the great work and have a wonderful week!
