hello family and friends...

it is great to hear from some of you and for your powerful testimonies you have...this past week ive received a new companion...im training him on mission and he is great...i thought my days of training were over, but its another task that the Lord wants me to do...its the 3rd elder that im training and it is always great to see the energy of of a new missionary...he is an elder from Botswana...his name is Elder Mangenela...so far i have learned so much from him...it is soo amazing the testimonies that these African elders have...their conversion stroies are profound...last sunday brother Michael was baptized and maybe in 2 weeks his wife will be baptized...they are such a powerful family and i look forward to their contribution in the church...there hasnt been much going on here in Rongai...we are still searching...the weather is something else though...it is blazing hot...about an average of 90degrees a day...the food here is still desirous to the taste...it does make me love Kenya soo much...haha...many of the members have taught me how to make most of these dishes, so it will be nice to still eat it when i get home...its truly going to be interesting how i will adjust to the life back home...but for now all im worrying about is Enduring...tomorrow is our Zone Conference, so im looking forward to that...i have been assigned to give a recitation talk on Doctrine Covenants section 4...ive been focusing on our desires...if we have the desire to serve God we are called to the work...it doesnt matter if we are set apart or not...we are able to serve God as long as we have the desire to do so...this work is amazing and it is soo great to bring a change to the people of Kenya...may the Lord bless you all as you engage yourself in His work...have a wonderful week and hope to hear from you all soon =)


love always

  1. Michael, I am so glad to see that you are having success and enjoying Kenya. I have a friend that lives there now and has been inactive for about 15 years. I'll have to see if I can get her address to have some elders go see her. Have a great day and good luck on your talk!

    Love, Sister Nickell
