Hi everyone I hope all everyone is having a great day. You can send pictures over the email, I will get them. We will see when that packages come the mail is always really strange here. Our investigators are doing well. It rained hard this week so some investigators that we wanted to show up to church didn't show but I guess it shows the ones that aren't as dedicated to learn yet. We did have some investigators show like Johns brother Bryan and Enock their neighbor who we have been teaching and man they are so powerful it is always a treat to hear from those guys and hear what they have to say. Concy was able to receive the Holy Ghost which was great, but John showed up a little to late so that was to bad. We will wait until next week for him to receive the Holy Ghost. John was a little bummed about it too. John has been studying so much we gave him a gospel principles book and he has been studying it a lot and soon he will know more than me. He is always studying he is so powerful which is awesome. We have been teaching Samuel Kedi, but he was unable to come to church because he went to a village very far away to pay for school fees so hopefully we will be able to see him this week. We are teaching several people but not many people are progressing. But as we teach the people we are able to separate those that are willing to listen and those that are not so ready for the gospel. We did a lot of walking and trying to find those that are ready for the gospel, some of the youth that seem so ready have parents that don't want them to join the church. Humphrey has parents super far away so it is hard for us to talk with his parents. He wont be able to pay for school either without his parents so we just asked him to talk to his parents about it and tell them what he knows. There is a man named Collin that really wants to learn more about the gospel we are planning to talk with his parents as soon as we can so hopefully all goes well there. It rained this Sunday all day and not many Ugandans like to walk in the rain so not many investigators, but it went well because the people who did come are the ones we know will stay in the church like John, Concy, Bryan, Enock, and a friend of Rodgers came so that was pretty good. Last p- day we cleaned went and emailed and played some pool, Elder Shinga really likes pool. This week we went to Kololo for soccer which was fun and I had to figure out what my Net ID is it was crazy.
This church is such an awesome church. It is the plan of Happiness, we know we can be happy and that when trials and tribulations come our way we are able to overcome them through the Love of our Savior. What a blessing it is to know that! When it seems like all is going wrong or is hard we can go to our Heavenly Father and he will answer us and comfort us in our time of need. I love prayer so much and all the tools the Lord has given us to comfort us and to help us. One thing I found that has really helped me is when I find myself down I try to lift someone else up and I find by doing this the Lord will also help me feel up. I know this is Christs church and that it is ran by him through a Prophet of God who leads us and guides us.
I love you all and I hope all continue to do well and enjoy. Love you and miss you
Love Elder Hildreth
