HEY family!! this week has been great! a lot of our investigators
are in pinyahan which is the neighborhood that we live in so its nice being
close to all of them. one of our investigators - jonathan o'dell is super funny.
he's definitely our favorite investigator. whenever we give him an invitation he
says no.. but we tell him every time we're not leaving until he says yes. he
talks about why he can't/doesn't want to and we tell him about how he can and
should. anyway every time he ends up saying yes and every time he says yes we
know he's going to follow through. he's awesome, super honest and so nice. we
can tell he really likes us and respects us. he's about 30-35 years old and his
family lives in iloilo. he's just here working. we really think if he gets
baptized he can become a leader in the church. he's really great. he makes us
laugh every time we teach him.
the other day we were teaching this one lesson and
my companion, elder de dios, was trying to get contact information from
three people that we were teaching when this little girl tapped me on the
shoulder. she was probably six and she just started talking to me. she asked me
where i was from and i said "america, siguro iyan ang dahilan kung bakit ang
pangit ko" just as a joke and she said "hindi..pogi ka" ;') hahahahaah it was
sooo cute! she reminded me of bo.. anyway i gave her a restoration packet and
told her to take it to her parents and have them read it.. we haven't heard
anything from them yet.
everything is great over here, i love being a
missionary! i feel like im learning tagalog and how to teach effectively really
fast..
this is one of the people that we baptized this week! we had one
other baptism. this lady's name is editha enolpe and the other baptism we had
was sister evelyn cariaga. the other picture is just typical street view of
where we walk around all day
