well this week was same ole same ole. we went to tacloban again, we are going back next week as well cuz we have transfers and cuz an area authority is speaking.. so it should be cool. i think/hope that one of us will transfer, if not both. so the package has yet to arrive. so i have something to look forward to :)
well this week we went on splitz. i went with elder morris in our area. i was kinda worried, cuz we are both relativly new and still pangit kaayo at the language. but we actually had a really great time. we had two investigators commit to a date and i knew that they both felt the spirit cuz it was super strong. so on sunday we had a real nice turn out. we had 3.. yes 3 investigators at church. WHOOO HHHOOO!!! haha they are all gonna be baptized on cinco de mayo. no one knows what that is here. so i say may 5th as well :) well we had a huge rise in attendance at church. it was a good day.
we also went into the real bukid. where people are 20 mins away from each other and you have to jump huge canals of mud and what not. it was really fun. im glad that i get to enjoy hiking in my mission. it is raw nature. people always ask me if there are mountains in the states, i say, HECK ya there are! they think that their mountains are huge. the tallest one is like tiny. like Maybe... maybe 1000 ft elevation. i tell them that the mountains of ut are soooo much bigger and they have a hard time believing it. also they have a hard time believing that there are hot places in america. they think that cuz everyone is white, that there is no sun or its not hot. HA.
So just like 30 mins ago, we had a meeting with the juvi police. its hard to do anything because he is only 12, they cant send him to prison, so they can only send the parents to jail. so we made an agreement saying, that if he does anything again, his parents will pay or go to jail. so hopefully the parents teach him that he cant do it again.
well thats about it for this week.
I love you muchly
Christian
