Split

Met another family that heavyweight believes in mermaids. 100%. Like no questions asked.  It was hilarious.  They have no proof, no 2nd hand witnesses or anything. Just a myth and they are hooked. Too funny. We try to convince them otherwise and they wont have it.  Didn't think I would ever have that conversation with a grown person. 

Saw a shirt and a hat this week, both of which I was certain they were for Meridian High School..... Crazy.  Saw some BSU stuff the other day too. 

Weighed myself today because I saw a scale for the first time in like a year. 90kgs. How much is that in pounds? 

Speaking of kgs, we bought 5.50 kgs of pork on Saturday and braai'd with some members. Sooooo good. 

We went to a wedding on Saturday for some members in our stake and it was at our chapel.  It was crazy.  Like they blasted music and when Kabuya and I left to teach people, we could hear it from down the street hahahaha. People walk by and hear Zim dance comin from the true church. Classic. 

We've been working with this less active family and they all came to church this week and the father even came early and brought his friend who is also less active so that was dope.  We had like 5 less active people come back to church yesterday so that was good.  We basically had 0 investigators.  Just 2 people who are visiting their families.  Darn.  

We had a pretty boring week.  Just one of those weeks where you have fall thru after fall thru and not much was working out haha.  But we will make things happen this week. 

We had a good lesson with the police officer we are teaching.  We taught him about the Book of Mormon and he was super interested and said as we taught him about the restoration he felt something inside him.  Powerful.  Met some of his buddies and contacted like 4 more police officers. Some of them were jokers tryna waste our time but who knows.  Plantin seeds i guess.

Taught this other baba Sakwa about the Book of Mormon and he loved it. He was telling us how he was going to read a lot in it and he was really excited to read it.  T'was awesome. 

The other day I was studying in the morning and I got to Jacob 5.  Gathering of Israel is something else.  We talked as a house for like 2 hours about it hahaha.

Church is true. Same with the Book of Mormon.  Y'already know that tho. 

This week is the 4th of July.  Sooo happy.  Last time I had a bonfire and this time I think I'm gonna go to KFC for lunch and braai some pork for dinner. Enjoying that day.  Love Zim but..... Proud american. Tryna find fireworks too. 

Today we played soccer with like 20 elders at this country club and it was dope.  I been feelin soccer becaue of the World Cup.  Didn't do that bad today.  Progressively less and less terrible each time I play.  We also played a skelly game of football and it was dope.  Throwin it deep hittin someone screamin down the side. Brought me back hahaha. Made me remember going 1-8 senior year hahahahaha

Oh yeah and the mission split today! So I'm still apart of the Zimbabwe Harare Mission and our president is President Makazi from Bulawayo.  YEAH. Not really a mountain moving thing.  Woke up, our alottment cards and airtime refill and we have a new president.  Still haven't met the guy. I'll keep you posted twhen that happens. 

Also, we met this mama at OK "where the nation shops for less" (yes there is legit a WalMart type store chain here called "OK".... hilarious.  

New mission president and potentially a new president of Zimbabwe.... In the same month.  and US Independence day.... My goodness.  

There were some diamonds in the rough of this week.  Lookin forward to teach all the people we couldn't see this week. Hopefully I'll have more people to talk about next week. 

Love you all. Really felt all the support and prayers comin my way.  Can't thank you enough for that.  Have a stellar week. 

Stay Steady Grindin
