"Well here comes a dry mormon". Former Bishop

This was a quote from a lady telling us her conversion story.  Now this lady would go to church every Sunday.  She did this for a couple years before getting baptized.  The Bishop said "she was a dry Mormon because she had never been baptized". This quote changed her perspective.  I thought it was hilarious.  So did the lady that was telling the story.  She was the first member in her family and then two of her kids and her husband joined after her.  Powerful story!  Now to stories from the week.

Story number 1 :  Shhh.  I'm hunting Ukuleles.

Now let me begin with saying, where I stay and where I serve is a small town called Uitenhage.  Now there's not a lot here in Uitenhage.  My companion and I really want to learn the Ukelele, so we went hunting.  Checked the first and only store that was likely to have it.  They didn't.  So we kept looking, there are about five pawn shop of Lenduka things in Uitenhage.  We went to them, and guess what.  Nothing.  At every shop though when we would ask, we would always have to do the motions of an Ukulele because no one knew what they were.  At one shop the lady thought she knew what we did and showed us a little tiny guitar thing that court jesters play.  It is okay though.  The hunt continues today in new hunting grounds.

Story Number 2:  Golden Investigators.

Apparently we are doing something very right here in Uitenhage.  Lately we have been finding some very very very prepared investigators. I will speak of two of them today. They are college students, one is in his third year of studying electrical engineering and the other I am not sure about.  They are so ready for the gospel.  Its like when you go there you don't teach them at all.  You introduce and their minds just open to the gospel and everything links together.  They will one day be incredible priesthood holders.  Possibly even missionaries. 

Well that's what I have for this week.  I love you all, have a wonderful week. Elder Tucker
