Kamusta
kamo???!
Well
its been another fast week, well actually this one felt kind of long but it was
another really good one! First of all that is really crazy how much snow you
guys got! Wow! I showed the pictures to my companion and he was just in awe
haha! He wishes we could have some of that here. I told him that its cool the
first couple of times and then after that it is just kind of annoying and
really cold! haha so I hope you all are surviving the crazy storms!
As
for us here in Buenavista it has been a super rewarding week! Yesterday we had
9 investigators attend church! It was so great to see them make the effort to
come to church! We now have 7 investigators with a baptismal date,
including the 2 we found or got because of our fast last week! It is awesome to
see our investigators make good progress!
So
the Gallo family is still doing great! I love them! Their baptismal interview
will be this coming week! They are super excited, especially the kids! I am so
excited for them and for their baptism on the 23rd! They have been some of my
favorite people to teach in my entire mission! It truly has been a blessing to
teach them and become close to them!
Questions…
- You
told me transfers are on the 12th. What are your
feelings? Do you think you are being transferred or will you stay
put? Transfer day will actually be on the 14th and we don't find out
until tomorrow whats happening. But my feeling is that I am staying, i am
pretty confident that i am staying. at least i really hope so!
- What would you say is the hardest thing for your investigators to gain a testimony of? (tithing, word of wisdom, etc.) Here in the philippines everyone believes in jesus christ and almost everyone is religious in some way. So in my opinion the hardest is probably the restoration. Most people just think it doesn't matter where you go to church or how you worship as long as you do it.
Well
sorry for the short email! I hope you guys are all doing great! I hope you
enjoy the emails even if they are short!
I
love you all and hope you have a great week!
Palangga
ko kamo!
