Saying "good-bye" to Elder Brown, one of the last four of our Swaziland
elders from the Mozambique Mission
Our Manzini Elders
L to R: Elder Daybell, Elder Brown, Elder Mtyobile and Elder Musumhi
After lunch we drove about 40 minutes from Manzini to Siphofaneni with Elder Daybell
and Elder Musumhi, to teach this darling family about families, temples and family history.
Bro. Carlos Zandamela is a member, but he has been inactive for many years.
His wife, Sibongile and daughter Padthwakahle (10) are on date to be baptized
on August 5th!! Their baby girl Anele ("Angel") is a "miracle baby".
Doctors in Pretoria, South Africa said they could do nothing about her condition
before she was born. She is healthy and she is what brought them
back to the church! The little smiling cutie in front is Siphisihle (5).
I was taking a photo and didn't even notice at the time the HEART in the clouds!!
(We needed it that day...!)
On Saturday, we had a visit with Bagezile (12) and her sister Lungile.
How we have come to LOVE these two sisters! They live alone in Ezulwini.
Lungile has been a member since 2012. Her sister, Bagezile, came to live with her
this school year and we have been teaching her with the zone leaders.
She had her baptismal interview Sat. and will be baptized next Sunday, July 22nd!
The zone leaders got SAD news last night... Elder Treasure has been
transferred back to Johannesburg!! He leaves tomorrow!! So we had a "farewell"
dinner tonight (enchiladas and fudge bars) and took a couple of last photos....
We will REALLY miss him. 😔 These two have been a great duo and a lot of fun!!
I just realized that I never put Elder Smith's birthday photo on here.
His birthday was July 9th. He is one of the last three elders from the
Mozambique Mission, so he will be here until he goes home in October!
