Stake President Haboko is from Kinshasa, DRC. He is watching a video that Elder Hamilton had on his phone about a slightly famous young man in his stake. Cedric wanted to go on a mission but he hadn't earned enough money. So he delayed the start of his mission for 3 years while he sold bananas at great distances on a bicycle to earn the money. Cedric is still on his mission serving as a faithful, strong Elder because he made the sacrifice to go.
The saints in Soweto are strong and faithful and bear powerful testimonies of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. They feel so blessed to have found the truth.
President Reid from the Edenvale Ward took the 2016 Area Plan and had his whole ward membership meet to make a plan for themselves and their families about how they could implement it into their lives. It was a very impressive meeting!
You can imagine our surprise when we ran into Raynerson in the patron housing cafeteria. He was one of the YSA's in Porto, Portugal. He has moved to Mozambique and is working there. On this weekend he brought his sweet Mozambican girlfriend to the Temple. Also visiting at the same time was Beatrice, one of the faithful members from Angola. She was in town for Public Affairs training. We had a wonderful visit and dinner with our dear friends from abroad and all in Portuguese!
