September 24th

Hey,
So last week their was a little virus on the flash and I don't know how it happened, but now everything is doing OK so I am now able to send some pictures of Justine and Sandra's baptism so it was a pretty exciting experience. So this week it was another good week it was really hot, but we were able to push through it and work hard. This week I can say nothing too crazy happened and it was another week of sharing the gospel. Except Agnes and Trevor weren't able to be baptized this week because their Dad wasn't ready for them to get baptized. Their dad is a member, but just didn't want them to be baptized yet so we will be giving them another week to be ready.
Also Henry a friend from Richard is preparing for baptism this upcoming week and I am excited for them to be baptized this week Henry is already excited to go on a mission he will have to wait a year but he is ready to go and is ready to learn and I was excited about that. So this Sunday it went good and the attendance is becoming a little more stable, but still there are families that aren't coming that we have been missing. So we still have lots of work to do with them. We have a focus this week to really build the area and find more of the elect and work on those who are ready for the gospel and ready to build Zion here.
So I am still excited to be with Elder Omondi he is awesome and continues to uplift me and I have been grateful to be his companion. So the work is going forth this last week we were bounced a lot and I don't know why but we were still able to work hard and push through. Didn't find as much as we would've liked too but this week really planning on strengthening the area. I am doing great though and loving every week we have to be on mission and to serve it is a great blessing to still be here and be strengthened by the people around me and the great standard works we read everyday. I have seen how also as a family when they read scriptures together pray together and have activities I guess basically follow the Family Proclamation they are truly blessed in all things and it is something great to see and even when you share it with families and they implement it it is so awesome and great to see how happy they are and strong the become!
 I love the work and I love the people it is so great to be here at this time in my life to learn the things I do. I sometimes imagine if I never came and the so many things I would have missed out on such as seeing families baptized and confirmed and preparing to enter a Temple in future times or even seeing someone baptized preparing for mission and if I wouldn't have come I wouldn't have seen all of these wonderful things I would've missed out on the blessings of coming to know these wonderful things! There would've been so many things that I wouldn't have been able to learn and see and grow from it is crazy. I know it is one of the greatest decisions and I am so glad I came it is so awesome and I am so grateful for this opportunity it is to be here and I hope to continue on and push strong!
   I am glad everyone is doing well and safe I love you all so much and am grateful for your love support!
Love Elder Hildreth
