Elder B in Zimbabwe: March

I ate cow stomach the other day. The natives call it "maguru" or "matumbu". I've also heard people call it tripe. So out of those three, maybe you can use your smart phones and ask siri what it looks like. It looks like the rough side of a kitchen sponge and smells like feces. So the sadza mamas have to fry the living tar out of these things and soak it in seasoning for the smell to go away but if they do it right it honestly doesn't taste bad.

All the pizza inn girls know me too well now so when i walk in they're always like, "large peri peri chicken with a coke?" I'm like, "Obvious" hahaha

We had 12 investigators at church! No big deal. haha I think I talked about a guy named Keshias and how he has a prophetess wife who was being nonsense but she humbled herself and came to sacrament meeting! She said it was nice so thats dope. And we had most of our people on baptismal date come so its awesome. Also, we finally weren't chosen to teach the priesthood class. Then after church we ran home and grabbed eggs and bacon and then took it to moms and broke our fast with mom and rejoice by having breakfast for lunch.... so sick. Superb day.

Since I was exalted to district leader we had to do exchanges with the zone leaders this week. I was with Elder Hansen from Cali. We were just making each other laugh the whole time so it was a chill day. Took some pictures of their area which was low density but also lower class. Really cool place.

I took pictures of our car on Tuesday to show how dirty it got in one day. It is impossible to keep these things clean.

We met this guy the other day named Arnold and he was super interested in the Book of Mormon so we gave him a copy and when we met him the next time he was on 1 Ne. 14 hahahaha and he was telling us the story exactly how it happened and we were stoked. He even came to church last week with his kid. So cool. Hopefully this wont be the last time I write about him.

We get to meet Elder Hamilton of the 70 this week. Nice.

No longer buying a guitar. Gonna wait til I come home. Stay tuned.

Walked in on mom watching a series about how animals are tired of people and decide to work together to overrule humans. Writing that down to look up when im home.

Getting my suit tailored this week.

Our branch is getting reorganized this coming Sunday. So excited for that. It has kind of been chaotic lately. Branch president less active, 1st and 2nd counselors competing for dominance, no branch mission leader. And the rest of us just tryna hold it all together. So finally President Mkhabela is gonna fix things.

Good things comin.

So yeah it was a good week. Just amazed at how fast time goes. Its already the 5th of March... how. Love you guys.

Sharp.
