Heavy Heart!

Hello sa lahat!

Well... This is gonna be short.

2 of our investigators came to church yesterday. It was great! Their fellow shippers sat down beside them during the sacrament and classes. They have felt the spirit. That is what they said when we visited them last night...

Transfer Week is this coming Wednesday. I do not have any idea what's gonna happen...

Transfers are from the Lord's will. I am just hoping that I still get one more transfer with my trainee.

I really love being with Elder Mecham. I have learned a lot of lessons from him.

He is a great missionary. Loves to work, and is filled with attributes of Christ...

That is all for today...

Well, I have no pictures to send for this week.

Also, My birthday is coming close!!! It's on the 29th of June...

So, you better send your gifts now. haha. just kidding.

Mahal ko kayong lahat!!!

Hello!

Well,I feel like my companion and I pressed a restart button last week.

Last Tuesday we started to move to our new apartment. We woke up and started packing and cleaning our old house. (It is important to clean the house before you leave, I don't wanna hear any complaints from our last landlord)

It was a tiring day for us. Luckily our branch president came and helped us.He's the best!

Well, right after we arrived to our new apartment, we started cleaning and putting every stuff we have which took us a day to finish. I am getting tired of cleaning houses now.

A month ago, me and my companion got sick on and off...

We found out what's the problem. It was our Water Filter!!!

We received our New Water Filters and replaced it, we were both surprised how disgusting the old filter was. good thing it didn't get worse. It's good to have clean water filters again!

Last Thursday, We had our Zone Conference. we slept over at the Zone Leaders apartment (wednesday night). And we left san jose like 5:40. I don't like waking up that early! But the purpose was good, so it's worth it. I Love Zone Conferences! My companion and I was filled with faith, hope, and motivations that we desperately need in our area.

President Clark broke his foot, but still continued to preside and teach us that Day.

He's an amazing man! I look up to him a lot.

We have been blessed by wonderful and spiritual leaders in our Mission.

I Love being a Missionary!!!

Also, Last Thursday, I celebrated my 3rd Year anniversary as a member of the Church!!!

I cannot count the changes and blessings that has happened to my life.

The Gospel blesses the lives of individuals and families, I testify of that.

I know that this is Christ's Church, I know that the Book Of Mormon is another Testament of the Savior.

Yesterday I taught  Sunday School in the branch we're serving. I always feel nervous but the Spirit helped me deliver the lesson. I kinda have a feeling of taking education after my mission. I don't know yet, But I already love teaching people!!! haha.

The Branch members joked at me and said that they wanted me to be their Sunday School Teacher forever. I don't know about that...

My trainee's training's almost done. So, next week will be transfer day. It is crazy fast!!!

12 weeks was super fast. I have seen my trainee grow, It is amazing to see his skills developed, and spirit strengthens. I Love Elder Mecham, He is an example to me.

Hope, I get to stay here for another transfer...

Well, that's all for today.

Ingat kayo lagi!

TIME (Things I May Enjoy)

Short one for today...

My email for today is late, because my companion and I went to Tarlac (2-3 hours away from our area). We went there for my CLS test. (It's like a language test)

My English skills was tested. hahah. I don't like answering the questions, but it was fun.
Last Saturday we Our Stake here, had a Stake One Day Mission Activity. (Combined activity with members and some missionaries of the Stake)

It was a wonderful activity. We went to a mountainous area. It was awesome! I was assigned to be with a male member for that day, and he's from Lupao!!! hahaha. it's like a little reunion. This area has no Missionary work background, there's no Church in this area or missionaries. We went to 3 barangays of this one municipality and started the work going. The people there was incredible. they welcomed us warmly,and gave their wide warm smiles to us. Every family and individual that we met in that area was excited to hear from us, and wanted us to come back for more, they are truly looking for the Gospel, they are spiritually thirsty and hungry.. I am lucky to be a part of that activity. It rekindled my excitement when I first heard the restored gospel.

I Love Missionary Work! It connects people together.

Also, Last Wednesday I was able to have an exchanges with Elder Valdez (he is part of my district). He is my batch coming here in the field and going home as well. It was weird. haha. I enjoyed it though. We were talking about our time left, and how fast our 2 years was.

Now, We are still struggling in our area. STRUGGLING IN FINDING INVESTIGATORS...

I hope that this coming week will be a good one.

Tomorrow, We are moving to our new apartment. We are super excited, it has AC! (Air conditioned room). and what's best? it is located to our focus area, and it is super close to the Church.
It's gonna be a busy day tomorrow, and on Thursday we will have our zone conference. this is going to be a very busy week.

My trainee and I are down to our 11th week of training! Close to the finish line!!!

That is all for today!

Mahal ko Kayo!
