my family and friends I have returned

sorry for the while of not writing anything. that is my fault. i havent been the best at keeping track of time latly. but i will try to catch you up on everything that has happened the past few days. i got transfered. thats right i am no longer in durban i am about an hour and a half up the coast in stanger which is still in kzn but i am even closer to the coast. i am in what they call sugar coast. the reason for this is because this is one of the largest sugar producing areas in south africa. it dosent matter what way you look you see sugar cane fields. it is pretty funny the little kids wait at the speed bumps for the big sugar cane trucks to come by and when they slow down to get over the speed bumps the kids swarm the truck usially getting a cane or two before the truck drives off. it is pretty great. i have a new companion from mesa arizona. his name is elder harper. he is pretty chill and is getting ready to end his mission. he plays guitar and can sing. the other two elders in our area are elder kamara from gana, west africa. he is pretty cool dont know mutch about him though. and elder nu'usa, he is from utah played football at the same school as was in the movie high school musical. and got to meat some of the cast from the movie. lets see what else is there. oh yea we didnt even have a phone for the first week or so so that was great trying to set appointments. and we do not have a car so we are stuck in a radious arround the boarding. so yea i am like a little pioneer child. i walk and walk and walk and walk.

All is Well

things are all good here in south africa not too much has happened other than some pretty weird foods namely a food called mealy worms kinda like meal worms fried in butter tasted pretty good though. we had a person walk in off the street just looking in trying to figure out what we are about and he seems interested. we started teaching him and he apparently had been taught before he recognized the pamphlets but said he didn't know where the church was. he just happened to waltz in and find it. the lord works in mysterious ways.
