Hello everyone, We were blessed to have the Wall's come and visit over Mother's Day weekend. We went to some of our favorite places and here are some of the pictures we took with them.
I was right next to this monkey and he was just busy eating and didn't
care.
It was fun watching the girls be brave enough to pet some of the birds. when we were at the bird sanctuary.
This ones color was so vibrant it was amazing
This thing was like a grasshopper, but huge. With lots of other thing on it that the grasshoppers back home don't have. It was as long as the width of my foot and they are pretty wide.
Two Grandpas walking the Kenton on Sea beach together and catching up on things.
Thought my grandkids would like to see that Grandma's neck and back are feeling better so I was able to have fun doing cartwheels at the beach while we were there.
It was a little cool and windy that day but better than we expected because here is was like the second week of November for you. We had a great time with them.
Our first District Meeting with the new Elders in our District. I was trying to get Elder Ezom to move over to get in the picture better , but it looks like we are holding hands. (not). Elder Johnson that lives by us and works with us in Motherwell has his arm on his new companions shoulder, Elder Mumba who is new and from Zambia. The third Elder from the Left is the first Elder from Mexico to come to South Africa and he is new also. He is Elder Hernandez.
P-day for the happy Elders.
This is the Wonci family and about half of the family are members. This little girl will turn six the same day that I turn 60 so we are going to celebrate together that week sometime because our birthday is on a Sunday this year. Her mom is next to her and she almost died last year when she got TB. She takes about 15 pills a day for 18 months and has lost about 40 lbs but we are thankful that she is on the mend.
This is a picture from a place we drove to last week, it is Knysna. We were only there for a few hours so hope to go again sometime. It is a little over three hours away from where we live. Because we have fewer missionaries than they used to have we don't have any missionaries serving there right now.
Last Saturday Sister Mashiqa got baptised. She is the mom of the boys who got baptised last month. We are working with the Dad now. He is a great guy but has a drinking problem like most of the Males in Motherwell.
This is part of our Motherwell primary. We try and learn a new song most weeks. The little girl in the back thought she needed to stand by Elder Smith and help him with the music that he plays off his phone for us because we don't have a piano.
This was Sister Makoba's first week at Church and she loved it. We are teaching them with the Elders. They have a 16 year old son and a daughter at college as well. She said she could feel the love in Relief Society.
This is Elder Johnson's flat . We got a call last month at about 6am on a Sunday morning to see if we knew how to shut off the water that was spraying out of a leak from the water heater . They are up in the attic and it had busted a hole in the ceiling. They have hot water now but the ceiling still isn't fixed. Waiting on the insurance company.
