Teaching in Zimbabwe

This week was kind of slow, but we had a lot of time to spend in our area and that is always so nice! 

This week we started teaching Lenna's little sister Liyona! I am so excited. I hope we can start teaching her mom as well. Liyona doesn't understand much English, so Lenna helps us translate. That is such a great opportunity for Lenna to learn and grow her testimony, being able to help teach her sister.

Another person we are teaching is named Canisio. He is a young teenage boy who was referred to by our recent convert, Dumasani. I love teaching him, because in the lessons we give, he listens so intently. I can tell that he is serious and wants to learn more. When we ask him to keep commitments, he does them, and then writes what he learned in his notebook. I even gave him the Book of Mormon with Ethan's testimony in it. He smiled so big when he read it. Good work, Family! You were truly lighting the world. 

Canisio and the Book of Mormon!

I am doing really well, and am just continuing to adjust. Sadly, I am looking forward to when the Christmas season is over, so that I don't have to think about what is going on back home. But I am really loving Zimbabwe. It isn't easy adjusting to life in a different country, but this is the coolest opportunity of my life. I really love the people, and the culture is just so cool. 

My Christmas decorations! I LOOOOOVE the snowflakes!

Zengeza is good. This next week we have some fun activities to look forward to. Our whole zone bought fabric to make matching skirts and ties for the zone conference on Wednesday! I am excited to pick mine up and see how it looks. We are going caroling in Harare, and we also have a zone conference that is a Christmas party! 

I love you all so much!
