This is most likely my last week with Elder Tidwell, transfer calls are next week already! This transfer has flown. The other day I pulled up two tree stumps and mixed cement by hand. Tiring work but it was a lot of fun, especially because I'm learning how to do a lot of these things that I really wasn't sure how to do. We were also very blessed with a new investigator. His name is Baba Kabane he's the husband to a sister who's family has been coming to church for close to 30 years. The husband never seemed very interested and a car accident had left his right arm and leg almost unusable, which made difficult for him to come to church altogether. He had always been very nice to us just never really wanted to hear the lessons (again, he'd heard them quite a few time before). Our branch is very small and there was not a home teaching program instituted, it just began this month and as a result of home teachers visiting the Kabane home the Father told them that he had some interest in being baptized. They let us know and we went over to see them. For some reason this time something clicked for him, especially about divine authority. He became very excited and we've taught him the first three lessons last week and have an appointment to teach the forth tomorrow. The spirit is so strong in our lessons I know that is the only way the age, culture, and language barriers are being leaped over so easily. I love this country and its people.
Hope every one is well,
Love,
Elder Scott Brazee
