Well this week was full of ups and downs. It is good to be back in Madagascar but I caught a bug or something this past week and so yesterday I was at home all day sick. It is gone today and I feel a lot better but I know I will probably get sick a few more times just because it is Madagascar. This week we got some more news about Dolin and Hariete his wife about their wedding. On Tuesday we went out searching for the eldest in her family to ask if we could post pone the "fomba gasy" and just get married legally when we found the oldest brother of her father he argued with us a little bit but then understood what we are trying to do and accepted it. We were pretty happy because we were going to have their wedding in the following weeks which allows them to get baptized. On Wednesday we go to their house and they gave us bad news that the Eldest was actually just being nice to us because we are Vazahas but he still does not accept it, so we are going to have to wait like 4 months for them to get enough money to buy some cows and some drinks and rice. It is pretty frustrating but there is nothing we can do about it. Other good news from the week is me and Elder Hunter tracted into this guy named Dider about 2 weeks ago and he came to church on Sunday, had a great time, made some friends and told us he wants to come back every week. We also have another family that will be getting married this week and they will be getting baptized on the 24th of February. Please pray for them. All and all work and life here in Madagascar are going great. I love it here.
Have a great week
Elder Wolfgramm
