3 Months and Counting!

I'm sorry this will be short, but I at least wanted to add the pictures on so everyone could see Elder Buck in Africa. Poor kid didn't get any of our emails last week because our emails didn't go through. So we were able to set up a new account for him, and hopefully we won't have any more problems.

He's doing well, still working hard on the language. They had a bit of a stumbling block when Elder Chirwa, his companion, received a phone call from the mission president letting him know his father had passed away. It was difficult, but this is what Elder Buck had to say,

"But at the same time it made me look deep down and have a greater appreciation for the Plan of Salvation. I don't know what I would do if anything like that would happen If I didn't have this Gospel in my life. I am so grateful for this wonderful church and the wonderful plan Heavenly Father created for us and the infinite sacrifice His Son did. This church is the only true church on this earth today.  Never have I had a greater testimony of that than now and my testimony only continues to grow each and every single day I get to preach this amazing gospel to the people of Africa ."

He said he is starting to understand the language more, and people's accents so the teaching is becoming a little easier.  He's just growing and learning so much it's amazing. We just love getting his letters and hearing his testimony. We should be getting another email tomorrow morning, so I'll update everyone once we get it.
