Sunday at the Katlehong Ward November 14, 2021

 

We still don't have our mission phone, so we attend another small Ward with Elder and Sister Perkins. The Church has these metal temporary modules - This is the right side - door open is the Bishops office.


This is the front of the buildings - there are four in all making a plaza in the middle.
The Church sign on the fence out in the front.  The elders ride bikes about 30 minutes to get to Church.
The middle grassy area - Elder Smith checking out the rest of the buildings.  There is a Relief Society room, a Primary room, YW and YM - we really enjoyed our visit there.  We met the Stake President and he knew all about the Pathway Program - even has a Church Service missionary couple in his stake working with the students.  Wonderful meetings, RS sisters singing were amazing - I told them they should make records!!

We ended our good Sunday watching Edgemont Fourth Ward's Primary Program.  Briella was near the front and we didn't think to take a picture - Keenyn is doing his part.  Both of them did great! We are blessed to have the technology to be a part of things half a world away!

  Sunday October 31, Elder and Sister Elggren drove us to our assigned ward - the Kwa Thelma 2nd ward.  It was Stake Conference and both wards met together - great talks!  Wonderful to meet the people we will be serving on Sundays.  It is about a 40 minute drive from the city - delightful children. The Temple is right next to the Area Offices - all are in a park like setting - an old estate that the Church purchased. View from behind the temple. Little lizard on the post of the steps into the office!   Part of the Office buildings - underground parking door in the middle of the picture. The door to our department. Desk in front is Elder Smith's - mine just behind it.  Further on is the Humanitarian couple's office. Interesting poster in another hallway.
