What a WONDERFUL Sabbath day!!  We had FOUR baptisms after church today in our Ezulwini Branch!  They were Ntsiki Mahluza (sister to Nelly Shongwe & Lindelwa Thwala), Boniswa Dlamini (Gogo Shabangu's granddaughter, age 13), Bagezile Nkabindze (Lungile's little sister age 12) and Lwandle Mdluli (Thato's son, age 9). It was a REALLY nice baptism.  (Lwandle was scared of water and it was freezing cold, so they shut the doors to the font and we had to wait awhile for him to stop crying and be okay to proceed! He was very brave! )

Elder Smith, on the left, baptized Ntsiki, Lwandle and Bagezile.  Sifiso Silindze (on the right) baptized Boniswa. Sifiso is YM President and Institute teacher in our Ezulwini Branch.
He is ready to turn in his mission papers!!  ü

Yesterday, after Elder Wold subbed for the Manzini Institute class (and I visited the Manzini  Seminary class and gave Zwakele, the teacher a keyboard lesson,) these YSAs were singing in the foyer.  They sounded SO good! I just had to make a video of them!!
  

Nkosikhona, doing the beat box, used to teach Seminary, until he got a job that kept him 
from being able to be there every Saturday.  I also taught him several keyboard lessons. He is VERY talented musically!  The cute girls have very pretty voices too. The one on the left is a non-member friend that attended Institute for the first time.
