So this week, I think that the sun decided to move closer to the earth here in Zimbabwe. It was SO STINKING HOT! Even when we would go to appointments, people would say," Wow, I didn't think you would work in this heat, we weren't expecting you to come!" The work of the Lord moves forward, even in the blistering heat.
Our investigators are doing SO well!!! Milda is progressing so fast and I am amazed with how fast that her testimony is growing. Ever since we introduced the Book of Mormon, she hasn't missed a day of reading. Also- she hasn't missed a day of church! She was able to attend Canisio's baptism with us, and hasn't stopped talking about it since. She is just counting down until her baptism!
Chipo also hasn't missed a day of church, and she is doing really well. She has said that since she met us, she has had a desire in her life to make changes and be better. She also reads the Book of Mormon and loves it! She even shares with her friends what she learns in her study.
This week my companion and I not only did missionary work on this side of the veil, but we also helped do some on the other side of the veil. We worked with some members and helped them send some of their family names to the temple! They loved putting in information about their ancestors and pressing the button to send them to the temple. We want to continue to help them with their family history, and I think it will help them look forward to the temple in Zimbabwe. I am so excited for them to have a temple here, it will strengthen so many families! They are breaking ground on it this year 
I have to come back once it is built!
As a companionship, we decided that we needed to broaden our teaching pool. We made it a goal to do at least an hour of contacting and finding every day. That made this week really fun and we met a lot of people... Some more interesting than others hahaha It opened up an opportunity to do service. I fetched water from a well, and helped people wash their clothes. It was a different approach to sharing the gospel, and we plan to continue do an hour of finding every day. It makes the work fun to meet different people!
Have a great week. Remember that Heavenly Father and Jesus love you! The gospel is so sweet and it changes lives!
