I am trying to think back on this week, and I don't think much exciting happened to report to all of you. I did get transferred.....kind of. And the new area is nice. I am glad i will still be in the same ward. Oh wait, i did think of something really exciting to report on. Yesterday my new companion, sister odongo (from Kenya) and i got to go to Kanye, and be there when a new branch opened there. It was so exciting. The Spirit in the house they will hold church was so powerful. The elders only had ONE day to work, because they arrived there Thursday afternoon, and had to plan and get everything sorted, then we had to be in by 6 pm for new years, so they may have worked a couple hours, i dont know, but friday they couldn't work because it was new years, so saturday was the only real day of working, and there were around 15 investigators there! It was amazing. I am so excited to see this new branch grow! That was definitely the highlight of my week. The church is really growing here in Botswana, since I have been here 2 new branches have opened! It is exciting, I am grateful to be a part of it!
So for new years, people here go crazy with fire works! Everyone shoots them off, it is crazy, we stood on our balcony and didn't know where to look because everyone was shooting off fire works. It was cool. So, happy new year, I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did, and i hope you enjoy 2010 even more. Make sure to set appropriate goals that will make you stretch! Maybe, doing one random act of service a day, or reading the Book of Mormon in 70 days....those are just a few suggestions I have already given you, but thought maybe i would remind you of them....well have a great week, and an even better year. Make every moment a worthwhile one :) Miss ya all!
