WEEK 86 MPAMONO BAOLA! Soccer win 3-2! I scored win goal! Keep teaching!

Another great week! 

 

I was a little sick at the beginning of the week so that slowed us down a little but we still pulled out a good week. 

Currrently our dime investigators are named Heingo and Liva.  Heingo came to church a couple of weeks ago telling us they used to attend church a couple of years ago. The church was in a different location and then from them moving, they couldn't attend anymore. Now that they found out it's closer, they have started coming again and they haven't stopped yet haha. We saw them at the activity last week and we talked to them about church and they really enjoy it. So they are doing great. 

Our recent converts are doing great as well. Sadly Kiky can only attend every other week at church due to a problem at his work but they are all still doing great even though there was a little mix up at the last activity. Clara said they were pretty upset then but its not a problem anymore. 

Today we had an awesome soccer game. We play the Ankorandrano ward every two weeks and they have been winning recently... but today we took the win! 3-2 was the final score and yours truly scored that last one. Awesome day haha.

WEEK 85 Azafady aminao e! Baptism-Families can be Together Forever

Hey everyone!  Sorry for the late email. We didn't get the chance to email this last Monday. We had a stake activity we went to that took up alllll day and funny thing is that there were no places to email anyway because they celebrate Easter on Monday.  So that explains my emailing late. Just hopping on really quick right now to get out a quick email.

The highlight from this week was the baptism! We had a great baptism of Kiky (husband), Mariette (wife), Clara (child), Mickaella (child of clara), and Sharon (child of Salim and Landy).

Have a great week!

WEEK 84-tonga ny transfera-Great Conference! hello Elder Nolan

Well another great week has come and gone. So we got transfer news this last Sunday and as expected, Elder Lake is leaving. It was a quick three weeks but now I'm getting Elder Nolan and it should be another transfer of killing it.

This week was great with General Conference to end it. We went this last Saturday and Sunday to the mission bureau to watch it in English.  Truly was a great General Conference. We noticed that the Plan was talked about quite a bit. Also the great wisdom of our Prophet to read the Book of Mormon. Another great conference! 

This week we started off by working in a new area. Didn't have any programs so we went out and tracted. Found some great new investigators. Tracted into this difficult time which we ended up walking out of due to them refusing to listen to the message. But we went and found some old investigators that were lost and started teaching them again. Kind of the same thing for Wednesday and Friday since we are trying to better split up the program so we went and tracted quite a bit looking for some new investigators and finding them. 

Then, Thursday we went and prepared our people for baptism. We should have a baptism this weekend: Sharon, Kiky, Odette, Clara, and Michaela should be getting baptized this Saturday so we went and continued to prepare them for baptism. All seem really excited to get baptized and all that is left is the baptismal interview.

That's about it for this week. As always, conference strengthens my knowledge of a living prophet on this earth today. All of our investigators were very exited to hear the words of the prophet and sometimes I think we forget the importance of a living prophet who gives us direct revelation from God.
