President and Sister Nielson were our guest speakers at our Sabbath Gathering Sunday night. The missionaries were all introduced to them and they introduced themselves to the missionaries. This month, the Nielsons will meet with each companionship over Zoom. At the end, we briefly went over the COVID-19 numbers in South Africa for the missionaries to see what is happening here.
3 Aug 2020, Transfer
Elder Baldiviezo was set to fly home on Monday, 3 August. Everything had been done, including his COVID-19 test, arranging a 7-day quarantine hotel stay and transport in Bolivia, and departure dinner and interview. Monday morning South Africa cancelled any flights the airlines had scheduled. So sad he couldn't fly home on Monday. We checked the other flights for Elder Torres later in the week--also cancelled. All cancelled for August. We will have to wait until September to see if international planes will be allowed to fly from South Africa.
We also had some other missionaries show up on our transfer board--finally--Sister Banditi, Elder Sibanda, and Elder Dlamini a few days later.
