"Kylie is the best at jumping! I don't want to show off! Do it! Ok" Peppa Pig

Before you criticize me for watching "Peppa Pig" just remember, I have been on mission now for fifteen months and just about any TV sucks me in. It's the worst kids TV show ever and was on at a members house.  It didn't send a good message in fact it supported giving into peer pressure.  So for all of you peoples out there big or small.  Whether you are listening to someone read or reading yourself.  Don't give in to peer pressure unless its for good! On that side note we will move in to stories.

Story number 1: New headline: Elder Shouts profanities to the community.

Some background as to why I was shouting profanities is because a dog that was gonna kill me.  Now this dog always barks and bares it's teeth at us and really just doesn't like us.  But in times we had walked down that street before there was a fence there.  Now the dog is somewhat blind so for some time after the fence was taken down it would run up to the spot where the fence had been and bark and terrorize us.  This time however was different.  The dog figured out there was no fence.  As I was walking it came across the barrier at me. I did what every good missionary would do.  Put my scriptures in front of me so as to smack it. Then shouted at the dog and the for all the community to hear.  After this encounter you would think that people would see if you are okay, but no.  My companion and the fellow shipper were just laughing at me.  In their defense though it was pretty hilarious.  Beware of Dogs.

Story Number 2: Primary kids are the best.

This week we had a baptism of a young sister.  About two minutes before the baptism was scheduled to start no chairs were set up.  There were however about twenty primary kids sitting in there.  So I asked them to help us.  They said "they would".  I said "face all the chairs towards that door".  Twenty seconds later it was all done and we were prepped for a wonderful baptism.  Primary kids are smart and great workers.

We had rain last night. I don't know anything about Cape Town though.

Well since its been a while here are some pictures of the baptism and other stuff.  Love you all. Have a wonderful week.  Elder Tucker

My companion is in the middle, he is from Fiji. The companion that was on the end returned to Madagascar.
