Good day, Can anyone please tell me how to contact the LDS Bellville Library? I have the following telephone number 021 9136642 which remains unanswered for several days. I have the address as 16 Kiaart Cres. Loevenstein Bellville Kind regards Fay

Hi Fay My personal experience with the LDS in Bellville was very frustrating and disappointing to say the least. Like you, I also battled for a very long time to get hold of anyone. Eventually I managed to hold of someone almost by accident. The pastor then told me that the LDS centre is only open on a Tuesday night from 7-10 pm. I arrived there on the Tuesday, only to be told that the pastor had his facts wrong and that it was in fact only open on a Wednesday evening at the same times. I was also informed that they have no films there, but that the films needed to be ordered. I then decided that it was a waste of time and effort as GISA in Stellenbosch has most of the SA films there and they are open Monday to Friday from 8:00 till 16:00.
