Whats up? How are things? Thought id drop a quick letter with some pics for your pleasure. As you have probably found out I bought a skateboard. Yup. I bought some awesome cheap shoes for like 2.50 us. The skate wasn’t as cheap unfortunately, but hey it makes me happy anyway.
I prob wont talk a whole lot about the work but just know its all good. Me and elder holt, are keeping quite busy down here. Teaching, tracking all that stuff. We probably only tract like an hour a day if that unless an appointment falls through, then we try to do more if we cant visit other people.
Last week we got like 12 new investigators tho, we were excited for that and tons more people have been coming to church now that weve visited them- its been good.
Oh hey sorry if you guys think that ive been somewhat racist( I swear amber does)(( I DO NOT I PROMISE CORY!!)) She emailed me and told me she hopes I don’t see people by color, yeah sorry amber the terms used are what people here use……they have difference communities, and they live separate still….so yeah, but ill just say “people” or whatever. Well see, im just trying to give you a better picture that’s all…but anyway.
I hope you been forwarding the emails and I know amber puts them on the blog, bu yeah just keep it up. I just don’t know everyones address I and I lost that paper with everything….
Ive been looking for people with chaka dogs but I cant find any…all the houses here have gates around their doors and yards and usually a small dog. Unless its in the townships where it’s the apartments or little one room houses. Its crazy, but the people seem to be happy still with whatever they have.
Most people will let us in their homes cuz in the day they just leave their doors open. That’s nice when they’ll at least hear what we have to say.
A lot of appointments and referrals not as much finding…its good tho…Like I said we stay busy.
Well if you can just write me back or something, tell me whats up…I have to pay for the internet by the hour so if you (cant tell what he wrote…) tell me something its easier to write and Ill find the time to read it and reply in the week. Hope you’ve enjoyed the emails so far. Miss you guys and send some music ok, or something….xmas is coming…tell me what you want….the us dollar is 10-1 here and in SA so wire (again cant tell what he wrote) if you want something! Haha.
But yeah x mas music or something or anything…whatever you want. Some stuff is cheaper while other stuff is basically the same.
Ps- its already crazy hot here….in the 90’s. but apparently this isn’t anything yet….January is supposed to be the worst!
