Maize in Malawi

(*It was a busy PDay and he had very little time to write...Sounds like it was a tough week.  Keep him in your prayers.)
 
 
Not much to say for this week. This week was awfully slow with lots of tracting. It was one of those really tough weeks where nothing really goes your way. It was really tough for me especially because we put so many hours just reverting back to tracting and finding people to teach, to which there are few to teach here. Unfortunately, a lot people don't seem to be interested in us but we keep trying to do our best. One of the small things that made me feel better this week was that yesterday instead of throwing more time into tracting we gave service to a member's wife by helping her with some harvested maize. Harvesting has begun, and people are harvesting their maize so they can make mealie meal that can be used to make Nshima and the like. We spent over an hour just helping this wife pluck off corn kernels so they could dry it up. It really made me feel a lot better.

We also had General Conference which made all the difference. I really enjoyed the inspiring talks (Elder Jeffrey R. Holland continues to give great talks) and I really learned a lot from it. It was good to lay back a little and to take in some spiritual food for thought. 

Hoping that this week will shape up a lot better. I think we just need to keep pushing and things will shape up. I apologize for the short letter. That's just how it has been this last week.

Hoping all is well with you back home. Miss you all and I love you all very much.
