Bear with patience thine afflictions!

Hello 🙂

This week was kind of crazy! We can just assume from now on that very week is haha. But things are a bit hard in the area and we are having fall-throughs like crazy!! We did have a good day on Friday though with nice appointments,, but come Sunday, nobody was at church. Finding new people and trying to build the teaching pool is pakayipa!!! Came across Alma 26:27 though which gave me so much hope. Success is just down the road.
I have been cooking a bit more and you should have seen me shopping the other day! I felt like a wife hahaha!! My companion has been teaching me to cook nicely 😉
We got pulled over twice this week, once they wanted me to pay $20 for an “offense”… I was barely past the first white line at the robot hahaha after a while we got out of it though lol we invited him to church and everything and told him we didn’t have money to pay because we were just missionaries and we go and preach the gospel every day. Then we gave him a Book of Mormon before we left. Now he will be baptized one day and have the most powerful conversion story. The other time was on the way back from cleaning Sister Joice’s house and they stopped us just to say hi and ask us if he had food or drinks for them hahaha when you see the cops so many times that you are just best buds and wave and smile as you pass. Zimbabwe haha.
It has been raining off and on which is the BEST!!  I love rainstorms. Today there was thunder and HARD rain. I LOVE it!!
Also rumor has it that bond notes are coming this week… but they have been saying that for who knows how long… so we’ll see! haha
Anyways, I love you guys and hope you have a great week!
Love, Sister Burt
