Hello everybody!! Life is still really good for us here. Its been a little rainy again the last week with a storm going through. But still good. Work is still progressing. Getting ready for another baptism here in two weeks. Pretty excited about that. Our new mission president sounds really cool from what other missionaries are saying. But i still haven't met him yet. On Wednesday we have interviews with him, so there i will finally meet him. I'm really excited to have this last part of my mission with him. He also said we can play basketball, so that was a huge plus. So of course we played earlier with the other elders in the zone. It felt good to play after about 10 months without it. And i haven't gotten the package yet. I think its been sitting at the mission home for a while, and hopefully i'll get it on wednesday at interviews. Transfers aren't for another two weeks. I think if i stay here this will be my last area. But if i transfer that will be my last area for sure. So we will see. But i would have no problem staying here. It is awesome to be able to see the change and progress in the branch little by little.
So like i said, we have a baptism coming up in about two weeks. It is the last weekend of the transfer. It is Sister Jackie Domingo. We have been teaching her for a while now. But this last week or so she has made huge progress. Before she wouldn't read in the Book of Mormon or pray, but now she always prays and reads almost a chapter a day in the Book of Mormon. And she never wanted to come to church alone. She was really shy. But a week ago she came by herself, and now she isn't quite as shy around the other members her age. She is 20, but looking at her you would think she is only 14 or 15 hehe. It is great to see investigators doing so good and getting even closer to Jesus Christ.
Our couple, the Castro Couple, is still doing good. They weren't able to come to church yesterday because the rain was really hard. But they have a baptism date and are progressing little by little.
We are doing alot of finding. We really need to get more investigators. Here the finding is different because we don't knock on doors. We just talk to people as we are walking down a road or street. If we see people sitting outside, we talk to them. Or we just talk to other people walking down the street. And here you don't knock on doors. You stand outside the fence around their house and yell "Tao po" hehe. It is really quite fun. Lots of times we will see them, then they will hide. Or they will send their kids out to tell us that they aren't home. The kids are funny because sometimes they will be like, "Mom said she isn't here" hehe. All you can do is laugh about it. We are having some little successes with our finding. Little by little.
Well fam, i love you tons. Keep up the good things you are doing. You guys are all awesome. This church is true! I love you guys, and God be with you till we meet again.
