This week has been good. We had two baptisms yesterday. I conducted Sacrament Meeting yesterday. On Thursday we did a service project. we went and helped a member slaughter and clean chickens. We got there late so we didn't get to slaughter many; I got to slaughter a couple. Later they cooked lunch for us. They had chicken feet, chicken livers, and chicken intestine. They cooked them over a fire, I was impressed; the intestine was actually very good. On Friday there was a ceremony for the new chief in Kanye, he was being crowned or something. We went for a few hours, got to see Botswana's President. He was there with a bunch of ambassadors from Brazil. We were wearing our suits and the ushers kept asking us if we were VIP. It was pretty cool. Went to Labatse for district, while we were there we went and bought a cake and took it home. When we got back from the area we discovered that someone had broken into our flat and stolen my chocolate cake and our bicycle pump. Probably not the smartest person. Anyways we changed our locks and security code so everything is fine now. We eat horribly; I don't really know how we stay alive. Durbin, South Africa is where the temple is going. DRC stands for Democratic Republic f the Congo.
Kanye= Con-yay. We get to watch conference this week-end and we should be having a couple of baptisms. I hope everything is going good for you. I will talk to you later.

Hello,
This week has been sweet. We have been doing a lot of finding, we found a couple sweet families and one of them came to church yesterday. Church was good but weird sitting on the stand and having to organize everything. We should be having baptisms this Sunday, hopefully three. Today
we came to gabs and hiked Kgale Hill , took some cool photos of gabs. This week-end was Botswana's Independence Day so it was kind of crazy. It sounds like conference was pretty intense;I heard that South Africa is getting another temple as well as DRC. We get to watch conference on the 15th and 16th so we are all looking forward to it. I see Darbin all the time, we are in the same zone, they live about an hour from us. I will be in the presidency as long as I am here. They will call a President but we will still be the counselors. Things are going good here it rained pretty hard the other day but the ground soaked it up before it had time to puddle. Kanye is the best. I'll talk to you later.
