Hey! Well I hope everyone is going well. Thanks so much for what you said about prayer it seems like you had a wonderful Ed week. I know prayer is the one thing we can always go to in time of need and even when we think we shouldn’t pray that is also when we should for "the evil spirit teacheth a man not to pray and the good spirit teaches a man to pray". I know prayers can be answered and they will be answered by our Heavenly Father in his own due time.

This week was really good. We have been working pretty hard and have been teaching this girl named Evelyn. I don’t know if I told you about her but she was a referral from my brother Elder Bailey who is in Ethiopia now which is really cool. She is really amazing and really wants to be baptized hopefully this next week! Also this Saturday we had one of our Assistants come over to stay with us. His name is Elder Rennie and he is really nice and he is super spiritual and he loves to work and get things done. Also this Sunday we had one of our best Sacrament Meetrings we had nine investigators at church and most of them want to get baptized which is great. We have one guy Rodgers who we taught the Doctrine of Christ to four others, two of them are Esters little kids. Esther if you remember just got baptized and now she has a ten and eight year old that want to be baptized. We also had an older guy in his 40s. He came and they all want to be baptized and want to meet with us more which is absolutely wonderful and I am super excited for all these guys. We will try to see them as much as much as we possibly can. I'll try to keep you updated. The other missionaries also had a baptism which was great. His name is David and I got the chance to talk with him and he is super powerful.

Sorry it took me so long to email you guys today, we were in Kololo for pday for zone activities so I got to see the mission home. We went and played some basketball with our zone. There were also like two other zones there so it was really fun. After we went back to this shop right store and it is kinda like Three Bears. We also went to Mr Tasties and that was a really good restaurant. Also got some ties which was cool. So that is why I am late to email you.

I think it is a wonderful experience to be on mission and I am so grateful to be here and I love it so much. I love the Ward here, it is the strongest Ward in Uganda well that is what my companion Elder Cook says. The members are super nice and they are wonderful. The people are nice, a little to nice I guess, they say yes to every commitment you ask because they don’t want to offend the missionaries. I love it here in Uganda and I am definitely getting more used to how everything here. Like the warmth and I guess just everything when I first got here everything was strange but now I am kinda getting more and more used to everything.

I know this is the true church on earth today and I am so grateful to be here in Africa to serve the Lord for these two years. It really is an amazing experience and I know I have so much to learn and so much more faith to be gained. Another great experience I had this Sunday was there was a really sick little girl at church and Elder Cook and I gave her a blessing and even within an hour she was jumping up and down with excitement. How the Lord loves the children and we must all be like little children submissive meek humble and full of patience I don’t know if I was like that as a child ha but it is how we are to be and I will try to build those and build myself the best way I know how.

 Well that’s about all I have this week. I love you all and Ill talk to you next week.

Love Elder Hildreth
