We both are doing okay. Just very busy. We continue to teach the Temple Preparation class in Kanye. The Lobatse group went to the temple after their class was finished. During one of our last classes one of the Sisters in the class was asked to read D&C 109:22-23, she cried and said "those are such beautful promises." I have read that many times and it never registered exactly what these verses were saying, but I will never read them again without thinking of this amazing woman in the temple prep class and that these promises are to all of who go to the temple with a humble heart.
Larry has a 21 year old girl, LaTang in his Insitutue class . She read the Book of Mormon in 4 days this month!! She is teaching "the Book of Mormon class in Sunday school. She looks like she is no older than 16.
I enjoy teaching Seminary. It is an amazing class full of 14-18 year olds and I have no displine problems. My star student is a 12 year old girl who comes everytime is doing all the reading and keeping her notebook up to date. This Friday night I am starting a Seminary class in Kanye, since they haven't been able to find anyone yet to do it. Also we are starting a teaher development class in Lobatse.
Last week we went with the missionaries to talk to a couple who are having a hard time surviving. He is the Elders Quorem President. It was the worst situation I have ever walked into. They live in a tiny room about 6 x10 with people living on both sides of them who are also living in one tiny room.
The bed takes up most of the room. a hot plate with 1 burner is the stove They have 1 little baby who was asleep on the bed. I sat on the bed and Larry sat on a chair they got from a neiborer. It was very very very hot and dark with only a candle to light the way. There were cockroaches crawling all over the walls and on the baby. Larry talked to them and gave them some good counsel. Larry gave him a blessing and then Bro. Otlogetswe gave his wife a blessing. The blessing he gave his wife was beautiful. The spirit was there in that little hovel. That night I didn't sleep very well thinking of the circumstances of this couple and what the solution could possibly be which you'd think would be a good job but there are very few available. I don't know the answer to these problems but I do know that the Lord is in charge and as we stay close to him through pray,keeping the commandents, reading our scriptures, and helping others we will blessed in whatever circumstance we find ourself in.
I will try to post a few pictures that tell a story better than words. I have been trying all day to downloadpictures with no luck, So I am sending this with only the one picture. If I get it figured out I will send the pictures.
Love Elder and Sister Moss
