day 362 Pictures galore!!

 Dear mom, 

this last week has been pretty relaxing. i spent a few days recovering so that i can fully recouperate. i feel great now.i dont know whats going on and why im getting these dumb things...but im ok now.

so really i didnt do much this last week. i went with a future missionary to complete his dental and medical stuff... we went to the dentist and had his check up and in order to complete the required parts he has to have quite a bit of work done... the total bill is around  9000 pesos. about 200 bucks... its so cheap compared to america. he is getting a full set of prostetic teeth. so he should look pretty legit after. right now is the hard part, searching for the money to pay for it. the bishop and other members are helping a little bit, but there is still a ways to go.. but we are working hard.

all the investigators are still doing great, and Brother Ponce will be interviewed next week. i sure hope he passes. He is still coming every week. we are astounded at how many investigators that are just poring in and wanting to be baptized. i love it here.

By the way, i didnt transfer, so im still here in catarman. :) we have zone meeting tomorrow, im kinda excited for that. it should be fun.

Well thats about all for this week.

Love you

Christian

Question:

I forgot to ask last week...did you get ana's package?

Yea!!!! i got it. I love it soooo much!! i wore the jersey and like a hundred people asked me to trade shirts with them!!! i love it.

I love the service questions:  so I'll ask again...Favorite service moment this week?

some guy dropped his bike and i picked it up for him.. :) hehe

How're your investigators coming along?

They are doing swell!!! we should have a largish baptism sometime soon. im super excited.

What's the plan now stan?  are you being transferred to tacloban? closer to the medical facilites?  

still here in catarman.

What did the dr's find out?  Were/are they able to "melt" the stones?

Well i peed it out in the hospital, and they kidney infection is now healed. so yea im all good now. The stone was huge!!!!!

Best thing about your companion in catarman? or if you have a new comp if you're in tacloban
