This are going great here in the Philippines! The people here are great, other than the fact that we hear Hoy Joe or Hoy Americano so some other ones like that countless times each day... LOL The expression on their faces when we walk up to then and start speaking Tagalog is pretty funny at times! The language is still really hard for me! but, trust me, I am progressing by the gift of Tongues.
My Mission President, President Howard is a Great Man! I was able to go to the Manila Temple last week, It was so Pretty!
Beings how Me and my Companion Elder Ward were assigned to reopen an area that has been closed for sometime now its been a lot of Finding! We are OYMing upwards of 350 people each week and teaching about 40 lessons each week. We are now seeing the fruits of our labors because we have 3 baptismal dates set up now.
Conference seemed like it was a lot better as a missionary than it has normally. There were a lot of great talks given this Conference. I Especially liked the talks given in the Priesthood session! President Thomas S. Monson and the Apostles are Truly Called of God!!
We had a Zone Activity today; we hired a Jeepney to take us to Cavity and we went for a hike to a river and to a Bamboo hut were we played some games and ate. We ate fish and rice. We used cut up pieces of a banana tree for our plates. It was very pretty up there!
There is no Way I Can truly cover everything thats going on in my life as a missionary, But just so you know i'm doing great! I KNOW THE CHURCH IS TRUE! I truly can't express my love for the Gospel in my life!
Ingot Po Kayo,
take care everyone

Hoy Joe!
ReplyDeleteYou are among people who I care about as much (perhaps more) now as when I was there with them so many years ago. I will love them forever, talaga. Please take good care of them and share my love there.

Good for you, Elder! :0 We're so glad for your efforts in sharing your love of the gospel. The Lord loves you & so do we. This is my 1st time on your blogspot & great to read of your feelings. I didn't know comments could be made. Listening to the Lord's Spirit is POWERFUL in our every day lives. Though we can't see him, we can FEEL he is there when we obey the commandments & pray morning & night. Love, Aunt Gerta
