Another week gone by and another well needed P-day. This is now my 7th
month as a missionary. Wow. time fly's fast. Just 17 more months to go!
And I only have one more birthday and one more Christmas on the mission!
haha. And one more New Years! but still 2 more Easters. And two more
4th of July's. :( Man that makes me sad, my next American 4th of July is in 2018. :0
Anyways...
This week went relatively fast. We moved on Tuesday in to the new
apartment, man, and we really got to see how disgusting the old one
really was. But it was pretty nice cause the branch president came and
helped and also the guys who just finished building our new apartment
came and helped too. The land lord of the old house was kind of a dufus
though. He just came in and complained about how crappy the apartment
was and kept trying to blame it on us, and he made us go buy like 9
light bulbs and we had to fix the broken windows and all this crap that
wasn't even our fault. And he was smoking a cigarette the whole time so
he stunk up the house and yah he was just kind of a kuripot.
Yah
the new apartment is much better and stuff. The only problem is that
it's really far from centro and and takes a while to get there after
proselyting. And we don't have a front door yet so cats get in
sometimes haha. Oh and we still don't have a fridge, but were working on
it.
Haha, the tall Australian wanted to
celebrate after we were all moved in so he bought a 2 liter coke but
when he tried to open it and it slipped and broke and sliced 2 of his
fingers. He started saying "like why me?" and he started
freaking out and our branch prez used my first aid kit to dress it, but
while they were trying to dress the wound he started sweating really bad
and almost fainted like twice. It was really a tiny cut but he just
freaked himself out haha. So that happened.
The
work was pretty okay lang this week. It was really rainy and we kinda
got punted more than usual. We had one investigator come to church, he is
our new land lord. His wife is a member and their kids too. But the
Husband is still a non member. He come to church most Sundays with his
fam but he is too shy to be baptized. It's hard for us to get much out
of him while we teach him. He is so nice though. He will be baptized one
day for sure. The one kid who didn't show up to his baptism didn't
come to church again. :( I don't know what to do to help him. His two
siblings are members and came to church, but he just didn't come.:/
On Sunday, one of our fellowshippers bore his testimony and played a card
trick while at the pulpit for some reason haha. Pinoys are so weird.
Man
it's crazy this transfer is almost already over. I wonder what will
happen. Everyone keeps telling me that president will make me district
leader as well as a trainer. I hope they are wrong.
Well
thanks for your thoughts and prayers. The Spirit whispers to me all
the time that there are many people praying for me and cheering me on
back home. Thank you guys, and God bless you all. I hope your prayers
will be answered, as well as mine, so that we can stat bringing these
people in Lasam closer to their Savior, and hopefully baptism. I love
and pray for you all!
