Hello! How has this week been for all of you? I'm talking to my companion asking her if there has been anything exciting going on this week. We really couldn't think of anything. Sometimes the weeks just go without any thing too unusual happening.
We had a single young adult fireside last night for the branch and we watched a video of a talk given by Henry B. Eyring at BYU. It really made me homesick, mainly because they were doing a shot of the congregation and they filmed Brandon Stienegal. It was weird! It shocked me!
Who is Regan? I keep getting these letters that talk about Regan like I should know who it is, maybe I do and I'm just being dumb and forgot or something, but I can't figure it out.
Transfers were phoned out this weekend. I am not affected by them. I didn't figure I would, but there was a small chance that I could have trained. But Sis. Sargent is training instead. I'm glad for her. She will do a good job. My companion and I will be companions until I go home. She wants to marry Erik. She fell in love with his photo, she keeps telling me to set them up.
On Saturday we are having the first New Beginnings in Madadeni. I am really excited for it. I hope goes well. I think that it will. We are having speakers from America and England. They are the daughter and old mission companion (of the daughter) of Pres. and Sis Mckay and they both are in the YW programme in their stakes It really should be nice.
We've started having YW activities every week, something they have never done before and it's great. Less active girls are coming back and they are all excited about YW's. I love being a YW leader!
Tomorrow we are going down to Durban for a mission conference on Wednesday. (Durban is 4 hrs away). We will be staying over night in Amanzimtoti. I am excited. We will be able to go and visit some people there. We are having dinner with Sister Elliott. That will be nice. She is one of my favorite people in Toti.
It will be nice to come home to summer. I am freezing here! New Castle is just a cold place! The thing is, it's not close to as cold as Utah, but the houses are not insulated and don't have nay type of heating and I really don't have the appropriate clothing. So, I'm cold. During the day it's fine. It even gets hot. It's just at night and in the morning.
Hey, I don't know if any of you are interested, but there is a guy in Madadeni that makes sandals. They are so cool! I don't know how to explain them, but they are definitely South African. If any of you want a pair you can tell me your size and send the money and i can have him make you some. They are cool. But you'd have to do it A.S.A.P so that I'll have time to have him do it. They cost $37 - that
Well, I had better end! I love you all! Take care!
Love,
Michelle :)
