So to celebrate today, we woke up at 5am and got on a plane and came to beira, then we played some gator ball, and ate out. Now we are doing internet but because of everything we had to do I dont have as much time today, so I am sorry about that. But I will make up for it next week. We did once again, wait for it... missionary work all week. But we have found some fun ways to improvise. We dont have a big focus on teaching youth right now because we want families to help the church grow. But we still have a lot of youth, members and non members, that need support so about a month ago we had the Idea to take a couple of hours on saturday afternoons and host mutual/family night for the youth, to teach them but also to get them to come back to church. I dont like to go little so we have had some super fun activities for super cheap. We played teh present and oven mitt game, last week we introduced the youth to water balloons, and then this weekend we taught them american line dances; macarena, cupid shuffle, electric slide, footloose. It was a blast and the youth loved it, I had to teach all the dances, and lead them so by the end I was dripping and dead, but it was super fun. I will send pictures next week when we get to our good internet place. But Other than that have a happy fourth, and for a spiritual thought, we need to remember that God is not real only when we believe in Him. A lot of people figure that simply by not believing in God, His influence can be taken from your life, just as much as His rules. But he has not ceased to be God and never will so we should start respecting Him a little more, or a lot.
Love,
Elder Anthony Holt
