This week has been good, we didn't really do anything this week because of New Years.. cause we can't proselyte on New Years Eve and New Years Day.. and then Tuesday and Wednesday we did a deep cleaning of our boarding's in our zone. haha so Tuesday and Wednesday we cleaned, Thursday and Friday we couldn't proselyte... OH but we did go play some volleyball and ping pong at this chapel in Cape Town! There was a ton of missionaries and we all just spent the day together playing sports! So that was fun!
Then it was back to work on Saturday, which was nice and to be able to be doing something again. Then of course because its a new year everybody is making resolutions and goals.. so Sunday there was a ton of less actives at church! It was super nice! but we will see how long that lasts.... haha but it was good cause I got to meet most of the less actives in the ward! So now I know who they are and they can't hide from me anymore! Now I can put names to faces! haha
But for me.. my goals/resolutions first I wanna be better at pondering.. haha and just be more knowledgeable about the Book of Mormon, oh and there is this promise that President Brigham Young about if you read and memorize a verse from the Book of Mormon a day for 6 months (I think) you will gain a photographic memory... but its like you read verse 1 then verse 2 the next day and then be able to recite verse 1 and 2 together... something like that.. hahaha but i think that would be cool to try out.. especially cause I have a hard time remembering things. But yeah just simple goals, nothing too dramatic.
It's so weird that Elder Maumau is coming home so soon! Time really goes fast! It's weird!! The boys will all probably get married at the same time.. shame.. haha
Well now that holiday is over it will be nice to get back to work! OH.. and I almost forgot to tell you that its transfers already! Elder Wilhelmsen is leaving and going to a place called Knysna its suppose to be super beautiful there! So he's excited and I'm getting Elder Midgley. I know him kind of.. but he's cool and I think he is from Utah as well, so we will see cause I get him on Wednesday!
Hope you all have a great week and that you stay safe!
love,
