We have had some crazy riots here...


August 20, 2012

Hello,

Hey mom and dad, Ya riots are crazy in Joburg, that's not the only one in the mines, there is a recent convert we see on weekends and there is a really bad riot going on at his school. he was in class last week and some guy walked in the glass room while the teacher was talking and just yelled at everyone, "don’t you know today is independence day!" then he told them that he was going to give them 5 minutes to get out of the school before the riot came. Students went on strike I guess for some stupid reason and they just came in like hundreds with clubs and bats and everything just destroying everything in their way including people. The kid broke his hand trying to get away from the riots and had to jump out of the 2nd story window. The riot is still going on. It’s so crazy. You mainly just hear about that stuff going on around Joburg though. People are just riot crazy. The reason why they do it is because eventually the government gives in and just gives the people what they want. This country has some issues. Hopefully things get a bit better in the coming years. 

With sister masters I talked to her on sat and she said she would be so grateful to stay just for 2-3 nights. Not too long until she can find a guest house or something in salt lake. Everything is worked out well the missionary she is seeing; he has known that she is going to be coming for a long time. So everything should be good. She told me to say thank you very much to you guys for offering. And it’s fine that she stays in my room. I don’t mind. She is scheduling her flight today. I printed out the info you gave me and gave it to her. So hopefully we can get on the same flight. We should be able too. So there is the scoop on that. 

I try and call nelson. I think I should be able to understand him pretty well. Hope everything is okay with him. Last I heard from the branch president in Nelspruit he said that he was not doing too well and moved back that side. Not sure why he would do that. But I’ll give him a call. Hope it will work and not suck our airtime. But love you guys a lot, that’s sweet about Nicki. Hear from you guys soon.
