blessing. I didn't take any photos of her, but I did take these, as we were driving away. She lives HIGH up on the hill above Ezulwini Valley.
I didn't get it in the photo but the banana tree on the right was FULL of bananas!
It is SO pretty around Elangeni!
We also went with the zone leaders to visit Sister Thuli, who was baptized with her husband in 2012, RS President in 2015, but has been less active. She has been coming back to church and we are hoping her husband will come too, someday soon. She is a sweet sister! She gave us names of two sisters who were active when she was RS President, who no longer attend. We hope to find them. Her baby girl is one. She has three other children. The oldest is 17.
We were parked in front of this home and these two cuties came out
and waved and waved and called to us in siSwati!
Elder Nogueira on the right is completing his mission and heading home to Brazil!
He will drive to Johannesburg with a couple of other elders on Monday, so we had
a "farewell" lunch for him at Galito's in Mbabane, (after the YSA Activity this morning).
Here he is with his companion, Elder Siale from Tonga, Elder East from Wales, and
his companion Elder Sinclair from Queen Creek, AZ! They loved it and also the
chocolate dipped ice cream cones afterwards. They are all great elders!
(The YSA Activity had 23 YSAs there!! We took Cowboy Caviar, Sweet Chili Doritos
and a Texas Sheet Cake to help out with the activity. But I forgot to take a photo!)
We'll miss Elder Nogueira! He knew NO English when he came to serve in Swaziland
from Mozambique! He really speaks English amazingly well! (Bad hair day for me!) : /
I have on some Swazi jewelry today....
The bracelet is made from hair from an elephant's tail!
(They promised me the elephant was not hurt... Ü )
I LOVE these two photos we got this week from two of our missionary grandkids!
They are both SO happy and both are doing SO well!!!
