How are things over there on that side of the planet. I hope that all is well in Zion. From what I understand things should be going great. Just enjoying the summer and the nice weather. I have been enjoying some rain. I kind of prefer rain just not when I am hiking on the mountain because I don't feel like I am very safe up there in the rain. But it is fun. So to start this week I don't really know what to say. It was kind of a hum drum week. Last Monday we left the café as usual and began the journey up the mount to our appointment and once again a test of my patience, I hate when you plan something and you hike all the way there and you get bounced. It's ok I guess - it is exercise. Plus I know it was for a reason because we met this family that is so awesome. I am sure that soon they wil all become members of this church. God always does things for a reason, sometimes we just don't know why things happen until something good happens later, like finding a new good family to teach. The Lord has been blessing us with some investigators. I hope that He continues to trust us and keep giving us people that are prepared to hear this wonderful message that we have to share with the world. This family that we met, I am sure that we will be able to bring the whole family to church through the daughter who is about 22. She has a strong testimony of God and a sharp understanding of the truth. Also, you know if a family likes you when they give you food. And they give us boku boku te (that just means lots and lots). So that is good. The father is Muslim and the rest of the family are Christian. But he says that after what I explained about the importance of family and how the church can bless his family, he will come and visit us. I know that he will. He is a man with authority. He is a head guy over this project for tb and leprosy. We will see what happens. So you know the term crap runs down hill? Well that is very literal here. It really does and since the church is at the bottom of the hill that's where it lands. Man thousand of pounds of dirt and garbage pile up in front of the church. So we had a service project to clean it up and man what a project. I think the Neves are going to send some pictures. I had to show the ole Africans how a white man works. So hmm I don't know what else to say except things are good yesterday. We had a good Sunday. We had over 150 at church and 13 investigators. It looks like my plate is getting full you can just accept all that you have and try to help them all. The gospel is moving forward at a rapid pace I don't want to be the one slowing it down. Next week is transfers so I will keep you posted. Also sorry about the terrible spelling this keyboard sticks like crazy. I guess my thought for everyone is don't let the things of the world crowd your thoughts so that you cannot hear the gentle prompting of the voice of the Lord. Not always is it evil things that pull your thoughts or dull your spiritual eyes but sometimes not listening will make it so you don't hear. I love you guys hope you have another great week.
Love Elder Moss
