Hello Family
I hope all is going well that
side from the pics and emails I would say it is even though all the exhaustion
is there!!! Anyway this week was really good we taught very many lessons and
have a lot of people ready for baptism in the upcoming weeks!!! We have
two to four people that will be baptized on the 26th possibly as well as the one
we baptized this last Sunday and then we should even have one on the 2nd of
august as well so it is good and the Lords work is moving along very nicely!!!
The guy we baptized is a pretty sweet guy and very down to earth!!! He
was taught once before but denied it and then he found the church in our area
and found us the missionaries and asked us if we could teach him!!! Well
he progressed and then he entered the waters of Mormon yesterday!!!
haha It was good he was very happy and ready for it!! So it was a
good day for everybody!!! All things are going well though and the branch
is doing better!!!
I am not so sure if you sent a
package yet but hopefully if you have it will be here when the mission
president comes!!!! I also know that now that I am in Malawi if you send
things direct to the Malawi post I can get them faster letters take ten days and
packages a month!!! I will get that address and things for you but I left
the planner at home so next week I’ll get it!!! but it will be there for
the email next week!!! Man that camp is a reminder of the woods there at
the hunting camp for sure I miss that place and funny enough that is also
coming up here in 3 months or so haha!!! Something I also realized is
school starts for those ones there here in about 5 weeks the summer
is flying by!!!!
is flying by!!!!
I am uploading I think about a
hundred photos to the dropbox today so I hope they all go through and I will
get some more for you next Monday when I come and email!!! I don’t have too
much info on the Stones but before I go or they go I will get the info from
them so you could go, that would be awesome although I do know that this is
their third mission that they have been on so it is pretty cool to be able to
see all of those things!!!! We did play soccer again this week which was
really fun and exciting as always!!! There are a lot of friends here in
this branch though more than in any of the other branches here!!! So it
will be pretty hard to leave this branch when I get transferred!! All
things are going well though and we are doing good!!! Something funny
though that I will add in here, Me and the comp we were teaching a lesson this
week and it was a pretty spiritual lesson to start out with!! Well we
reached a certain point in the lesson and my companion turns to the investigator
with all seriousness and says "what is the name of Jesus Christ?" I
thought about that question for a moment and then started laughing pretty
bad!!! Because of the question asked, My comp looked at me puzzled and he
said what’s wrong and I said "you asked a really inspired question
there!!!" more laughing until he finally caught it and by this time the
whole room was laughing!!! It was pretty good!!! Anyway Have a good
week to everyone and Love you all!!!
Love Elder Welling
Question: Do the Africans wear a lot of strange jewelry?
Answer: Yes and they wear them everywhere, also there is a crazy
tribe down here called the Goulie-Wan Coulou, they are a crazy people and run
around the areas with spears and machetes, sorry no photos, don’t want to get
too close to these guys!!
