THANKS FOR DISTRIBUTING THE PACKAGE!
Did the monkey hand and face make it?? If so! Have Dad treat them! He can hang
it in his truck for the time being if he wants hahahah ;) I'm glad you all
enjoyed the stuff! Just know that those things are a symbol of who I am now and
part of me.....hahahahahahaha just kidding! It's just cool African stuff!
So this week was nice...on P day we
went to braai (BBQ), a goat we slaughtered, but we also had some trouble with
the police. The other Elders car did not have proof of insurance (though it was
insured), so the police "arrested the Elder driving hahahah it was super
funny cause I was talking with the Police in Sesotho the whole time :P hahaha
We got things figured out...I was super glad I put our registration up though I
was a little jealous of the Elder that got "arrested" haha The
driving here is terrible all around though so I was surprised that they made a
huge deal about all the stuff...
This week we were able to watch General
Conference and it was SUPER amazing. So someone special attended! A sister we
have been teaching that has been having dreams and stuff has finally come to
church and what better time to come then conference!!! WOW! hahah It was sweet!
She stayed and even watched some of the Priesthood session and members welcomed
her and she LOVED IT! We saw her later that evening and we asked how she liked
it. She started quoting from the conference and said it answered questions that
she had been troubled about in her life and it was just TRUE! She is soooooo
amazing! We asked about the Book of Mormon reading and it turns out she has
been reading at least 2-3 pages a day and when she is at work...(she is a
General Manager) she has everyone come and start the day with a prayer and end
with a prayer!!!! WOWOWOWOWOW! So we let her set her own B date! :) I love this
work! I have seen so many countless miracles that I have not mentioned and I
will treasure them always as I will always treasure these people. I love them
with all my heart! (The manly kind) :P haha Elder Allen is the perfect
companion to be here with. We both have been trying to exercise our trust in
the Lord more and le bona? The work just goes amazingly!!!
Well I love this work everyone :)
Have a great week and I will talk to you in 2 weeks ish (less than that!) haha and
also Elder Allen’s family!!! Thanks for the birthday letter! That was
awesome!!! We got mail while we were waiting at the "jail" (not
really looking like a jail but a farm.) and it brightened what seemed like a
wasted p day. Have a great week!!!
Love,
Elder Petrie
