what is up friends and family elder whiting here for the
news of the life of elder whiting first up the forcast looks like it is rainy
like literally everyday but hey he is gratefull for that. just the other day we
got his opinion on why. here is what he said,

so yea things are looking good concidering for the next week
it will be cloudy with a high chance of rain yay!!!!
next up we have some news from the man himself. some of you
where questioning what it is like to be in the life of an elder in umlazi. what
do you have to say elder?
"well elder things are tough in the life of a
missionary but here in umlazi we get some benefits. firstly we live in a single
story appartment with 2 bedrooms 2 bathrooms a full kitchen a lounge (which
doubles as a second study room and a place for a nap later today.) and 1 study
room. from the outside it looks like a fortress but on the inside you will fit
right in at home. recently me and my companion had an interesting experience.
we ran into an investigator that had seen the missionarys 6 years ago and
hadent seen them since. they said that just the other day they where cleaning
their bookshelf and found a copy of the book of mormon and started reading it
that night. the next day. boom there we where knocking on there door wondering
if they would like to learn more about it
.

it was a nice experience i tell you. it goes to show that
the lord prepares the people that we are to teach. later on that week we had
another interesting experience,
we recently have been using what the people around here call
public transportation. this ranges from a bus to a taxi to the bed of a members
truck that just happens to be traveling in the direction that we need to go.
but one day we got taken for a joy ride from umlazi to durban because the taxi
driver refused to stop. when he finally realized that there where too slightly
agitated elders in the back of the taxi that refused to get out until he got
them home he finally turned around. so we made it home safely about an hour
later than planned. but we made it.

rember to tune in next week to the life of elder whiting.
until next time this is elder whiting sighning out.
remember that if you have any
coments questions concerns or general stories that you want to share with elder
whiting he is accesable through this contact. ethan.whiting@myldsmail.net thank
you for supporting
Elder Whiting,

that is that i was incapable of taking pictures for the same reason as last
week that is umlazi will not let me bring and carry my camera around. sorry
again. hopefully my mother will forgive me. i might be able to get some
pictures next week but no promises.
Elder Whiting,
