Well, all is going well in South Africa. My companion Sister Balyejusa is leaving this Tuesday to go home, but I found out last night that I am going to be staying in George, and that I will get my trainer, Sister Mukonda as my companion again. I am so excited about that. Not only will we have a blast together but we will be working in the best place ever together.
 
George is on fire. Right now we have three people committed to baptism,
and five more who are progressing nicely. I am so excited about that. One of the investigators, Noxolo came to church on Sunday along with her friends whom we are teaching, and then she went to a baptism with us so she could see what happens at a baptism. After she saw the baptism I asked her how she felt about baptism, and she said she was looking forward to being
baptised.
 
Her two friends that came to church with Noxolo didn't go to the baptism, but they are looking forward to being baptised also. So many good things
are happeniong in George and I am so excited to stay for all these baptisms I have coming up. It's almost like a dream what is happening because I was struggling when I first came to George, now things are happening and I am
so happy. Just pray hard that all these baptismsm and the people I am teaching will be baptised. That I will be able to help these investigators. I am praying and working hard to make sure they happen, but your prayers will help also.
 
Well I must go now but that is my exciting update about my mission. I have having a blast teaching the gospel to others, and am enjoying the country of South Africa so much.
I love and will write again soon. I had some pictures developed that I will sending you as soon as I get them. I will also be sending you a package with a letter.
Love, Sister Crawford
