Happy (Late) Thanksgiving!

This past week, Sister Nkohla and I decided we need to do more service. So we decided to do a random act of service every day. And we dubbed it RAS. So every day we are trying to do a RAS. It is great. We decided to do this because we listened to a talk by James E. Faust on how we need to do service daily. So we are trying, and President Monson talked this past conference on charity, so we decided we need to do it. So we have been doing our best to complete on RAS a day. And it is not as easy as it sounds. We offer to help people all the time, but they don't always accept it, so a few times we had to do service for the other missionaries here because people weren't letting us serve them randomly. But it was a good week, and it made a huge difference in the work. This past Zone Conference we were told this quote by Henry B. Eyring where he said to a future missionary, "Show the people Jesus Christ loves them by the way you treat them." So, we are doing our very best to try and portray the Savior's love for these people in Botswana every day through RAS and other ways. This week really was good, I have no complaints, but then again I rarely ever have complaints :) Have a great week, and thanks for reading.
