22 & 23 April 2017 Nelspruit and KaNyamazane

22 April 2017 Nelspruit

President Leavitt and I traveled with his 1^st Counselor President Wagner and Sister Wagner to the Protea Nespruit Hotel, checked in, and had dinner with President Thupi Banda and President Milton and Sister Mpho Manjate at the hotel restaurant. After dinner while the wives had a wonderful visit, the presidents conducted a planning, etc., meeting. President Banda had to take a bus back to KaNyamazane at 8 pm. He had left before I thought to take a picture after the meeting had continued on for a while before concluding.

23 April 2017 Sunday

We all ate breakfast at 7 am. President Leavitt and I left at 7:20 am to travel to KaNyamazane for church and other meetings. President and Sister Wagner attended and spoke in the Nelspruit Branch.

KaNyamazane Branch Church in the Vulamasango Primary School buildings.

They have outgrown the school facilities.

After church, President Leavitt interviewed Elder Dionisu and Elder Murwira.

President Banda directed us to the new property and buildings the church members hope to meet in as soon as they are ready. Elder Dionisu and Elder Murwira met us there.

We returned to the Nelspruit Branch church after dropping President Banda off at his home. While President Leavitt interviewed Elder Powell and Elder Davey, Sister Leavitt and Sister Wagner made peanut butter sandwiches for all waiting. We ate lunch. 

Then when all finished, President Leavitt and I, President and Sister Wagner and Sister Peace Malunga, who came with us to have her temple recommend interview with President Leavitt and go through the Johannesburg temple to receive her endowments, all returned to the mission home in Johannesburg. 

The Wagners returned to their flat, and after the interview was completed, Elder and Sister Black picked up Peace and took her to their flat to stay until Wednesday morning. Dr. Black has been filling in as area doctor between Dr. Jubber going home and Dr. Johnson coming, so they are staying in a flat by the area office. They will return to continue serving from their flat in Nelspruit Wednesday 26 April 2017.
