The drama continues, sweet baptism, Heating Up and All These Things will Be For My Learning

Hey fam. So the drama here continues. Our companions were not able to get Zambian visas so they got transferred to Malawi. I have been on permanent exchange with Elder Blanchard in his area and it looks like it will be Thursday or Friday before I can get back to my area because we are still waiting on transfer news.
We did have a baptism in Elder Blanchard's area on Sunday and it was a very sweet experience for that sweet sister who has been waiting patiently to be baptized.
Elder Blanchard and I have been able to get to know each other and I got to explore his area with him and meet the members of the Church in the branch here.
It's also heating up here as we head into another hot season and here in the Copper Belt is the hottest of any part of the mission we're in for a roasting the next two months.
Not much else to talk about this week but all is well in our service and I've got a lot to do when I finally get back to my area.
Thinking about all the challenges lately, I stumbled across the answer to prayer that Joseph Smith received from the Lord where he was told that if the very jaws of hell are open in front of him that it will be for his good and give him experience and learning. By no means are the jaws of hell open to me but I know all these mishaps will help me learn and grow in the long run.
Love you all so much!
Elder Lusk
