Hey there fam!!!!
So its been a good week here in the Philippines! A little
bit slow because its Holy Week. But a good week never the less! Unfortunately,
I am already overtime, so I gotta write this fast and get outta here!!!
So on Monday we had a FHE with Bishop and our Investigating
family the Santillans!!! It was super good! Bishop is a stud, and I love the
Santillian family. Best Family ever. And there was food. "Can life get
better? I submit that it can not!!!"
We played a slow game of football this week with maraming
punts! But it was cool beans because it gave us time to find new investigators!
Not to many though, because everyone was out for holy week. Not gonna lie, it
was a temptation that I faced to preach on a soap box out in the middle of one
of there conventions. Holding the Book of Mormon over head yelling,
"Magsisi Kayo!!!" or in other words, "Repent ye!" But I
resisted the temptation.
The other thing that was awesome is that we got caught up in
a parade of greif for Black Friday. They all had candles and marched solemnly to
a very depressing song with a statue of the Savior crusified in the front...
That was interesting.
Also, one of our investigators that dissappeared came back
and said that he got an answer that he needs to be baptized!!! That was nice.
He has a lot of work to do before that, but it was super tight! Then he made us
delicious banana soup for dinner!
Oh, and one of the elders here played for Highland back in
the day! We got to talking and we've totally been playing against each other for
years!!! It was fun to talk to him.
Tom moved... He didn't get baptized... and he is going back
to a house of Jehovah's Witnesses... That'll be interesting. Hopefully he will
find missionaries there and he will decide to get baptized... but that was pretty
sad to see him go.
Brother Santillan has a kid in Manila that he wants to get
baptized with their family. So Sunday he left up to Manila to go get him! He is
gonna be baptized too! Super excited for them! I'll try to get a picture of
them to you today or next week. They are my favorites!!!
We got to go to Mercedes Saturday for a service project! It
was super awesome!! The beach was sobrang maganda! And It was actually a pretty
clean beach. There were lots of kids there that now all consider me to be there
best friend. Yeah, that's whats up son! Pretty much anybody 6 years and younger
thinks I am the best. Because you see when your that young you have fun without
talking. Everyone else realizes how hard it is to talk to me and I am the
"eh" missionary...
And, McDonalds opened up right down the street from the
computer shop. So we totally had a big mac last week! What?!?!?! That was
awesome.
And I just deleted this email. Luckily I got it back
though... that was intense.. like the fire at the circus! Not very unmuch like
camping.
Anywho, sorry this email sucks.. like a vacuum. Gotta run!
Peace Out!
