So last week on Tuesday when we were traveling back to our area and we were packed 26 of us in a matatu. The road was suuuper muddy because it was raining. There was some stuck cars we passed. Our matatu was super heavy and as we passed them i said in Swahili "Our fatness makes us stong", it made the entire matatu laugh LOL but it was true!! This guy named Brother Chyulu came to Mautuma branch and supplied us with a new printer that also scans and copies, he also got us a new battery pack for when the power goes out, and he fixed the wifi!! Guys like him are so nice, they just come and fix things! This week we called a lot of the people that we got there numbers the week before. From it we got 5 new investigators!! And 4 of them are adult men who have families and speak English, EXACTLY what we are looking for! One of them is named Simon he has some really good potential. We gave him a restoration pamphlet and we met with him the next day and he read the entire pamphlet and had lots of questions and wants to know more about Joseph smith and the book of Mormon!!! We went to the branch presidents house for breakfast one morning. He really loves us, and we love him back too!! He is such a great branch president! Probably the best!!! We then went and visited another member named Euphresia and she gave us some food after the lesson and on there tiny little tv somehow there was WWE. Her mother was soooooo into it hahahaha i was laughing so hard!! She was clapping and making sounds and having the time of her life LOL! After church on Sunday we visited some investigators and then we went to the 1st counselors house and roasted some maize together "This is beautiful" In his own words! It was such a nice time! We talked about the church, his conversion story, family, and just the simple life in Mautuma. Also about the dangerous animals around, like green and black mambas that can kill you between 30-minutes to 3 hours if bitten.... We have a busy week ahead of us but i am really loving the mission and trying to get all i can out of it!! 😄 make sure to keep a smile on your face! it will make you happy and those that see it happy!! 😊 I wish all the best week ever! May happiness be in your life and good vibes come your way! Enjoy the 4th of July for me you beautiful Americans [?] Love, Elder Merz
