Hey fam,
This week has been an
interesting one, with the Rugby World Cup and mixed in with a South African
holiday of "Heritage Day" it has been a pretty hectic week with
appointments dropping, people leaving, and straight up crazy stories. Hence the
title of the email this week because of a lot of FINDING. Elder Clegg and I
have made it a goal to at least place 6 copies of the BOM every day, and it has
been going really well. We are blessed to be in a place that hasn't yet BOM'd
:), so we are doing are best to accomplish that.
We had the opportunity
to do some service, we painted this less-active guys house, I got paint all
over his patio on accident :0. I never claimed to be a good painter . . . . but
he was still happy that we were there to help him paint his house. After that
we had a powerful lesson with our investigators Naledi and Deon. Naledi's dad
is the Elders Quorum Pres in Germiston, but she lives with her mom and goes to
her mom’s church. We watched the Restoration DVD and it was awesome to sit back
and let the spirit work with her. She said really needs to pray about it. So
that is awesome!
We stopped at one of
our last appointments on Sunday after a long week of lots of finding. Both
Elder Clegg and I were pretty tired and we get this awesome SMS on our phone
saying. Elders, this is Notokozo. I was wondering if you could help prepare me
for baptism in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. We both
looked at each other like we had seen Canyon View win a football game
hahaha just kidding but we both were surprised. Crazy thing is she lives 50 kilometers
from the chapel, but she said she will be coming to church!
“Joy” of the week
Early Saturday
morning we were driving on the road and we saw a broken down car. So we pulled
over and pushed it to the top of the hill. As we pushed it down we hopped on
the back for a little joy ride. . . THEN we asked the girl inside if she knew
the where the ebrake was. She kept saying ebrake??? ebrake??? with her Zulu accent. Panic briefly struck
Elder Clegg and myself but luckily Elder
Clegg hopped off and got in the passenger side
and stopped the car before we took it off some sweet jumps. We will be
seeing them next Saturday (hopefully not on the side of the road)
All is well here in Springs!!!
Love Elder Broadhead
