When the National Public Affairs Directors (24 Directors from 24 different countries in the Africa Southeast Area) come in to Johannesburg for training, Mom gets the opportunity to share her testimony.  These Directors are so important in helping spread the Gospel in Africa. They spend countless hours meeting with government officials, helping with humanitarian projects and making sure that the Church's work continues forward in Africa.  

South Africa has some of the most beautiful golf courses in the world. Elders Dabell, Adams, Christiansen and I get up at 5:00 am about twice a month and head out to the links. You don't need a tee time at that hour. We're always the first ones on the course. I thought the name of this little bridge between the 3rd and 4th holes at the Parkview Country Club was rather appropriate.  I always thought "Dawn Patrol" only applied to an early morning surf session. 

The sun is just coming up, but we're a 1/3 of the way through our 9 holes.  We're usually back in the office by 9:30 am. Just in case you're wondering.

I don't think anyone ever had a cuter missionary companion.
