This week was great! We stayed busy, preparing people for baptism and what not.

We have been visiting Gracious and Vimbai, sisters who have been coming to church for over 6 months and have just been waiting to be baptized! I have never taught someone with such a strong testimony of the Book of Mormon and of the living prophet already before! They are so amazing. And Vimbai, who just turned 19, wants nothing else but to be a missionary!! We have just grown to love those 2 so much and are so excited for their baptism!!

Sister Jones, Malven, and me, with Gracious and Vimbai!:

Panichi and Hilda’s baptism was so great. Chipo was even baptized too! She was baptized back in 2001 but her records got lost, so she ended up having to be re-baptized. Everyone was confirmed on Sunday and they gave Panichi the Aaronic Priesthood after church!

We had a cool experience this week. One of the days, Malven was in town so we were alone for the day and had to find a member’s house to see their non-member daughter. We had only been to their house once on the very first day we were in Mkoba, so we had no idea where the house was, but we decided to just walk around and see if we could find it. We felt like Nephi in 1 Nephi 4:6. We walked for a while in places that we had never even seen before, but before we knew it, we had found the house! There is no doubt that it was the spirit leading us to their house and telling us which way to turn on each road.

I love you all and hope you have a great week!
