BUSY DAYS IN LIFE OF COUPLE MISSIONARIES

November 12-13, 2013

There was an emergency transfer and Elder Chingudzi was 
leaving Busia. He came to Kisumu on the 11th and 
we met him at the bus station and early the next morning we
took him to the airport to fly to Nairobi then on to Mombasa.
After breakfast and ready for the day we took the sisters to 
Migosi so we could get the prescription for 
medicine for Sister Eises to get an injection. 
We then went to town and purchased the medicine then
back to Migosi so they could give her the injection.
After paying out Internet bill we met Elder Balls 
at the airport. He was with us for dinner and the 
evening until 8 pm when the Kisumu Elders were 
available to take him tot heir apartment.
Elder Ball is going to replace Elder Chingudzi in Busia.
On the 13th we took Elder Balls and met 
Elder Philip Okaka at the airport as he was returning from 
a mission in Ghana Cape Coast Mission.
Elder Okaka is from Busia and was to be released form his 
mission there. We took both missionaries to Busia
and took their picture as we crossed the Equator in Maseno.
There were many members at the Church to welcome 
Elder Okaka home!
Elder Balls was also welcomed by the members at the church.

sister and aunt.
The family members are not members of the Church and 
when he left two years ago his mother said to someone
that she knew she would never see him again!
Even though she is not a member of the Church and knew she
would never see him again she let him go!!
She was very happy to have him home!!

on their way to Salt Lake City.
We then went to Kisumu and arrived before dark!
Long days and busy times with great people.

Days like these make missions wonderful!!
