This weekend was plenty busy with our baptisms and confirmations, we had seven total. Sunday morning we woke up and ran over to the Rongai branch for the sacrament meeting. it was the first time that i've been able to return since i was transferred from there last year. it was so nice to meet some of the people that i taught and see the members who i was good friends with. they now have a branch of their own so they aren't meeting in Langata anymore. After sacrament we took off and headed to our own ward for the service there. On wednesday it was my companions bday, he's now 23. so we had ourselves a little bbq. cooked some meat over a fire and fried a bunch of fries. it was a nice little bday party. on thursday we went on exchanges, i was with Elder Willis, he's from laketown, utah. just over the hill. that guys a stud, haha he did about 12 interviews for me that day.... and he isn't done yet. :) he was completely worn out afterward. can't really blame him, that was a lot for one day. Today we had an activity at the chapel. most of the nairobi guys came over to the chapel and we played basketball. there was a group of guys there who were being trained by some big guy from Holland. they practice almost everyday and since we were there, they wanted to play us. well we played, and had a good time. unfortunately for them, they kept losing :) it was really fun though, we have some really good players serving in Nairobi right now, so our team was awesome. this week is going to be busy as well, if all goes well we should have 10 baptisms this weekend. Saturday is also the All Africa Mormon Helping Hands Day. so we'll be busy with that as well. The members are so cool, they all want me to come and have dinner with them before i go, so from tomorrow till i go home i have a dinner appointment lined up.
well mom and dad i hope that you two have a great anniversary this week, remember that i love you tons and i'm so grateful for all that you do for me. i honestly couldn't do this work without your support and encouragement. love you!!
have a great week
