Soweto is an amazing place

This week has been very interesting, moving areas, transfers, new area, and companion has all been very exciting, although it is a familiar feeling! So I'm getting kinda used to it!

This marks transfer 15! Area no. 7, Companion no. 13!

I think I'll have at least 1 more companion, with possibly another area, I'm not sure, we shall see, although this might be my last

Soweto is an amazing place! 

We drive past the Orlando Towers, Vilakazi street and everything!

The people here are just so nice as well! Both the members and the people that live here are just awesome! I love it! And I think I will love it so much by the time I am finished here.

I feel very comfortable here, in the township, people are very easy to approach and talk about the gospel to. I've made a goal to get the contact details of 95 people (the space in the planner) over the next 6 weeks! And i'm doing good! So we shall see how it goes

It was interesting in how what President said when he told me I was moving is reflected in the area. When I got here, the flat was a mess (very dirty) so we spent almost 3 hours this morning cleaning, the area book hadn't been written in for almost 3 months! And some of the investigators are a bit flakey
But working with Elder Bartice we have been able to turn this around!!

Elder Bartice is an amazing guy, from Central America, he struggles a little with English, but he is a good missionary and a very nice guy! I think I will enjoy working with him, he is very humble and very nice. 

We had this great experience, Sunday night, about 7:45, just about to drop off our member present and head home, but we decided to try and find this potential investigator that we'd contacted while getting Kota.
Luckily we had a GPS to help us find the street, and the street that it came up with was a different name but similar to the one i had written down, we tried it and it was him!! He was very surprised to see us and that we actually came! Gave him a bible and a restoration pamphlet and we are going back next week!

That was my week!
