A Baptism!

As for Botswana, this week was good. So much happens in a week, I don't even know where to start. One investigator, Tawanda is amazing. He Texted us one night and said he knows this is the true of church of Christ, and doesn't want to wait til July to be baptized. So he will be baptized next week. We only started teaching him right when I got here. He said he has visited many churches but never got baptized in any of them because he didn't feel like it was the true church of christ. But he knows this one is! It is really neat to see how the Lord is preparing people to hear our message.
I feel like I have progressed so much in just one week. I am getting better every day at lessons and letting the spirit lead me and guide me in the things I need to say. It is a neat experience to not know what you are going to say, and open your mouth and out comes simple truths that people need to learn. It has been a struggle for me to do this because I have always thought about what I was going to say before I say it, so teaching by the spirit and not knowing before hand the things will say has been a bit of challenge for me, but I am getting there.
I haven't eaten anything too weird yet, but I am going to try chicken feet this week. I think...maybe. we will see, but I will let you know how they are once I do....Sounds horrible anyway. No worms yet, thank goodness!!!!
The Book of Mormon is a true book. If you haven't read it all the way though, read it, think about it, and pray about it. It will change your life! This church is the true church of Christ. I know this with all my heart. I love you all and miss you all. Til next week...
