Crazy Week‏

Afoyo!

This was a crazy week. Mostly because of transfers. Elder Roylance didn't have a companion for like 2 days and Elder Gwazvo was sick so I got to see some other parts of Gulu this week. On Wednesday me and Elder Roylance were reunited in a trio with Elder Majawa in our area. We had a rough day though. It is starting to rain almost everyday, so sometimes its slow going. It's supposed to be the dry season but I guess the weather was really weird this year. On Thursday I went with Elder Dean and Elder Roylance to his area. It was kind of weird experiencing the different parts of the zone. But that night Elder Ndamane arrived and we also got our washing machine back!! It broke before I got to use it, so I have been washing my clothes by hand for 6 weeks.

Me and Elder Majawa have no problem finding families. The Lord has been helping us so much!! However, the problem we are having now is getting these families to progress, let alone answer the phone! It seems that everyone now a days is either in Kampala or "the Village." That is usually people's excuse for not answering the phone or not keeping a commitment we give them. Its pretty frustrating. I think right now though we are just planting a lot of seeds and the success will start to come in a couple of transfers. Even if I don't see the fruits of my labors, I am glad where I am at this time. I love the people here so much. Every time I'm in a lesson I just feel a great love for them and even the love that our Father in Heaven has for them. I love the work so much.

Not much else to report for this week, other than I won't be sending pictures this week due to my camera being stolen out of the truck.. I love all of you and hope you have great weeks. Keep having faith in the Lord and he will put you in the right place at the right time.

Love, Elder Hawk
