Dear Mom and Dad,
It's really weird seeing the pictures of you guys in the MTC! I can't wait to hear more about what South Africa is like.
This week has been pretty good for me. We taught an investigator the Gospel of Jesus Christ on Friday and he accepted our invitation to be baptized! He has a Word of Wisdom problem, so we are giving him a lot of time to be able to overcome it, so his baptismal date is on August 7th.
Immediately after teaching Brother Bradshaw we went to talk to a 13 year old boy and also committed him to baptism for this Sunday. He has been waiting a year to be baptized, so he was very excited and even started crying when we told him it could be this Sunday. The members around here have been very supportive and we have recieved so many referrals we seem to never have enough time! Two of them seem really solid, and one of them we are teaching tonight, so I am really excited.
Let me know more about South Africa as soon as you can!
Love,
Timothy
