Me with the other Elders


Dear Family, 

The baptisms went great. Members usually give the talks but it is who the investigator wants. We have a pretty big turn out, it takes place right after church so most people will stay.   We did have transfers and Elder Flood and I will be staying together. Elder Mills and Elder Jaker are new. Elder Mills is from California and Elder Jaker (pronounced 
jack-a) is from Uganda. They are just what the area needed. It will be hard but good for them. They are both kinda new.

I had a good week this week. It flew by!!! We are already half way through transfers. The new Elders are doing great! They make my job easy, which I like.  I am glad things are going well at home. Fun fact. Pretty much all of the game parks in South Africa or neighboring countries you can drive around yourself. We should come back and I can be our Safari guide. Me and my comp are still 100%.  To answer your question, his name is pronounced just the same as Flood. It was translate from Waipuke which means "many waters". But now its just Flood. 

There is opposition in this work but nothing that ruffles my feathers too much. I am just starting Ether right now. I usually read about one chapter a day. I really try to study it. My knowledge has increased very much!! Man, all I can say is that the Church is true..

Love,
Your Son & Brother
