It's just like I am back on the farm :)




I LOVE ENTERPRISE. There are farms, green hills, and the most beautiful people that you could ever meet. This week we didn't have much time in our area, and when we were in our area we weren't quite sure what to do because the previous sisters didn't give us very good notes... BUT we were able to work with the ward members a lot. 



There was a recent convert that we worked with, and he was so awesome! His name is Tafadzwa or he also likes to go by T-Flavor. My companion and I died laughing when he told us that hahaha! It explains his personality so well. He is 17 years old and is so converted to the gospel! When he worked with us yesterday, he just took us from house to house and asked if anyone would listen to us. I pray he serves a mission someday! 



On Tuesday, we were able to do service with our zone at the Presbyterian church for the victims of the cyclone in Mozambique. A lot of people donated clothes and shoes, and so we sorted them out into bags for women, men and children. I was so happy that we got to go, and help with it. 



Being a Sister Training Leader is super busy! haha When we got into our house last Monday, it was SO dirty. The next night we were supposed to house the new sisters who came in this transfer, and their companions. We compiled EIGHTEEN dirty blankets to take to the dry cleaner. We spent most of Tuesday getting our house in order, but I was glad that we did. It is fun though, I really enjoy serving around and being able to help the sisters in Harare. There are some really great ones! ðŸ’•



I LOVE MY NEW COMPANION. She is the best! I said last week, but she is from California and she has now 5 weeks left on mission. We are enjoying every second of being companions together. We are basically twins... She loves to sing, she danced in high school, and we have very similar personalities. She is so funny, too! She makes me laugh and just always lifts my spirits. I am so grateful that we get to be companions. 

 The church building in Enterprise is an actual CHAPEL. It is so nice to attend in a building, and not a tent. (Sorry Zengeza, I still love you and the tent chapel ðŸ˜‰) Our ward is amazing, and are so supportive in missionary work. They will be such a great help to us! 
We set goals to work with the ward council and the youth to help find those who are being prepared in Enterprise! 




One Baba (Father) that we found to teach is named Goliath. The previous sisters had been teaching him, and WOW he is powerful! We went to go teach him the Plan of Salvation, and when we asked if he had any questions, he said," No, but I want to add to what you said." He then would share that he knew what we taught was true and he would explain what he understood. We talked to him also about baptism, and he replied," Ya, I want to be baptized. I think next Saturday will work." hahaha We had to explain that we needed to finish all of the lessons, but he is very excited to be baptized the end of April. 

I love you all so much. Keep reading your scriptures, saying your prayers, and going to church. In this life, we can't afford to live without the gospel. It is everything and it makes us whole. 

Sending ALL my love from Zimbabwe,
Sister Kershaw
