Good morning family,
It has been another wonderful week in the beautiful paradise of Nelspruit! I can't say it enough how blessed it is to serve in this wonderful branch. It has been an immense blessing to serve hand in hand with these wonderful people and I would go out on a limb to say that there isn't a more faith-filled, guile-free people. Just as the prophet Alma mentioned " they have no more a disposition to do evil, but to do good continually". And that has how it has been in my couple of months serving here.
There is nothing more wonderful for a missionary to get transferred into a branch and have the entire branch working with you to achieve and accomplish our cause- to bring others to a knowledge of their Redeemer. Why I am feeling the love for the branch this week especially? It’is because we planned and carried out another successful youth activity! I'm now sure if you remember when in Rabie Ridge, Elder Sibanda and I planned a Mini- MTC experience for the youth to come and to 1st be taught by returned missionaries in the branch and 2nd to have an experience! They headed out in the field to contact, tract, and to teach. What a success it was!!!! We had over 20 youth come and participate. I misplaced my camera but the Elder and Sis Blacks made sure to take ample photos, so I'll try to send through some of them! We split into 4 groups and each had our own "area and objectives" for the activity. My group went to the CBD, or the downtown area, and set up a banner and started to talk and teach the people as they watched by. One of my group members is a young boy named Comfort. He stays in Mshadza and has been learning about the church since December 2015, but due to area policies he has to attend for 6 months until he is able to be baptized. So even investigators joined in the cause to hand out cards and to bear testimony.
Other than that we had a couple of wonderful miracles. One of our progressing investigators named Sizile,has been praying and studying. She received her witness that the things we are teaching are true. She had a dream that she was on " a narrow path with a long metal bar next to her" so we opened into the book of Nephi and read with her. It was a beautiful spirit-filled lesson and when she came to church she asked how to pay her tithing. Miracles!!!
Love you guys
