So I had the chance to call home yesterday and it was really cool. The hour we had to call flew by and seemed like only ten minutes. It was nice to catch up and hear whats going on back home but now I need to re-focus on missionary work. This Tuesday we are having zone conference which is once every three month so were really excited about that. Going to zone conference always refuels the fire you have more than ever so that's nice. I just received an email that was kinda sad...I had to submit two new passport pictures for my visa on Tuesday and I got an email saying they will take 60 day minimum to process. They did however say they might send someone to the consulate so they can talk in person and try to speed things up so there is a little hope. We have been teaching a lady from South Africa who just moved here. She read a lot of the Book of Mormon but it was very confusing to her. We figured it is because English is her second language. So when we drove the pictures up to the mission office we figured we would see if they had an Afrikaans Book of Mormon and surprisingly they did! That was an answer to our prayers and we were able to give it to her and she was so happy and excited to have it. We talked to her a few days later and she told us it makes a ton more sense now and it's a lot easier to read and understand. I've learned a ton of patience since being out and that you need to keep trying and doing what you are supposed to. If you are doing the right thing that it is Gods will.
Love Elder Visser
