March 20 letters

To Mom: So being in Langa lately we haven't had too much success but we do have 2 sisters who are really progressing.  One is named N and  we met her almost the first week I was here.  Actually they took all the new greenies to our area to get some exposure to mission and she is one of the people that they found.  N actually comes to church right after work because she works night shift.  

N gave us a referral to teach her friend S who is also super awesome.  We taught S 3 times this week.  At first she told us that she doesn't know if God is real.  Then we challenged her to pray and find out.  The next time we came she said that she had prayed and that God answered her prayer.  We taught her about the book of Mormon.  The next time we came back she had read the Restoration pamphlet and 6 chapters from the book of Mormon.  Me and Elder Monoalibe were super excited.  She came to church on Sunday as well and now she is preparing to be baptized on April 23, which is her daughters birthday so that's really nice.  I don't think we will have any baptisms this transfer but there is a few people who still might make April 9.  I guess we'll see.

Something crazy is that Cape Town is in a serious drought and it hasn't rained this year at all.  As far as I know it has only rained once in the past 6 months.  The water supplies are really short and so the whole city of Cape Town is having water shut off for 2 days at the end of this month.  That will be really crazy if it happens.

Anyway Langa is really sweet.

To Dad: oh yeah and by the way we have been playing soccer every Monday.  In Cape Town there are really nice fields for us to play at and we bought a ball and it's super nice.   I am getting really out of shape though haha.
