Another Beautiful Day at the Potchefstroom Branch….

The sun was shining and so were the faces of the members of the branch as they came together to partake of the sacrament, share the gospel and fellowship with each other. President Kwaikwai had to work and Omphile – the second counselor had to go to school so I got to preside for the day and also teach the Priesthood lesson.

Sister Brummer only lets me take her picture when I catch her without another sister – in this care sister Mary who is a counselor in the RS presidency. I could not pass up the purple jacket!IMG_0119  IMG_0121

I told Tinashe, Menzi and Jacque that I was going to call them the Sunshine Boys as they stood outside catching some rays between meetings. Sisters William and Thulo are two of my favorite teachers – sister Williams in Sunday School and sister Thulo in Relief Society.

IMG_0122 IMG_0123Sister Amos and Kea add beauty to the scene. Both go to the university. Menzi came today so I had to get a picture of him with a lovely lady. As I was taking this picture, Kea said she had to have one also – so Menzi got two lovely ladies with him. IMG_0124

This is the only photos of Yvonne Gerber and Thato Kujane that I managed to take today – usually I get Thato in a number of shots. This one is far from my best of her. Brother Gomolemo is not bowing to elder Barton – they are playing some kind of game where they try to slap each others hands. Boys will be boys.

I almost got a picture of sister Gerber with her son Joshua and elder Barton but she had her head turned. I just noticed that sister Mary got in another photo. Sisters Neo, Lorato, and Kea pose for this one – sister Lorato Kujane kind of slide in while I was getting ready to take the picture.

Sister Amos’ phone kind of matched her purse – or is that a saddle bag? Here we have ElderBarton, Andrian Gerber, elder Alvial – we did not know at the time it would be the last photo of elder Alvial with branch members as he had an emergency transfer on Tuesday, brothers Gomolemo, and Lebona with Joshua Gerber in the front with a baby. IMG_0135

As we were locking up to leave I took this photo of Adam Lebona outside the gate. We wanted him to know how it would feel if he ever got locked up in jail.
