Hey,
I am doing great just loving the time and doing what I can to
help the work go forward. I haven't got the shoes yet I have to wait to
go to the Aweeno market next week I need Sister Jackson permission to go
there. Our new Branch President is awesome he is a real go getter and
knows what he needs to do which is awesome we are all so excited to have
him and we know things are going to go great. The new Branch is great I
like it a lot it is a really big area haven't been to that big mountain
yet but maybe some day. My companion is Elder Flinders from Kamus Utah
he is an awesome guy only one transfer ahead of me and he is a great
missionary I am very privileged to be working with him. Being a Zone
leader is very big work. Especially last night the Assistants were in
Ethiopia yesterday with President Jackson so we had to take our Zones
numbers and also had to take reports from the other Zones we were up
pretty late last night. It is a big responsibility and I am just glad I
am not on my own I have my companion and most especially I know that the
Lord has been helping me a ton this whole time and it has been such a
blessing for me. Our area is good though Sister Ruth and brother Godfry
are preparing for their baptism this next week which is super great we
will be excited for that and I am sure the Lord will be as well. Brother
Ausuman Peter and Jackie are good. Only Ausuman came to church they
know our position and they have a desire to be baptized and I sure hope
that they continue to do what they need to. We also found some new guys
this week Ezechiel, Moses, Hunington, and
Scovia they are a family and friends from Busia. Found them this week
and taught them and they were interested in the church and it seemed
when they came to church that they loved it. Every time there was a
little spare time I saw Hunington reading the Book of Mormon which was
super awesome! So things are really going well. Patrick is good except
he works on Sundays we are praying that he may be able to take off work
so he can be baptized he has a great desire just his boss is Indian and
those guys don't really care. Enock is just kind of there not really
interested just won't humble himself as Patrick does. So everything is
going well we are still trying to bring the recent converts and less
actives to church so we will be starting that re-activation program
President Ondongo is really up for that and he really thinks it will
work. So everything is going great we are doing what we can and working
hard and being obedient and continuing to improve each
day in what we do. I know none of us are perfect but we strive to be
each and every single day thanks to the Atonement which makes it all
possible for us all to overcome the adversary. Also to become more
perfected each day. Our District Leaders are awesome they are some of
the hardest workers in this mission they all have a lot they bring and
they know missionary work is important. So they have been a huge
blessing to have and even learn from. Christ truly is Gods only begotten
son in the flesh and he lived the example that we should all follow.
Christ overcame precept upon precept he had the same challenges as we
had went through some of the hardest temptations. He knows what each and
every single one of us go through he suffered for our sins bleeding
from every pore. I know he now lives and because of what he went through
all of us one day can return if we do what is right if we keep his
commandments and listen to the Prophets then we will
return to Christ and our loving Heavenly Father. This I know they are
real and they love each and every single one of us. No one is perfect
but through the Atonement we can be made clean. I love the work It is
such a great experience to be here and see the lives of those around us
change.
Last Pday we went to the Baha'i temple it was pretty interesting it
was cool there was no spirit felt, but it was interesting to see Ill
show some pictures. This pday I think we will just make it a rest day we
are pretty tired from staying up all night but I am not sure. Well I
love you all and am thankful for the love you guys show and the prayers
you have for me. I know they are strengthening me and building me. Love
you
Elder Hildreth
