101 days left

So, this week has been a quick one. we went on more splitz and i did a LOT of walking.

OK, so story of the week. One day after or during lunch i got a phone call, and not a normal phone call. This call was from a land-line. and there are almost 0 land-line phones here in the pines... so it was unusual. i answered and it took a second for the speakers voice to travel to me. He said "hello, this is Elder Nelson of the Quorum of the Seventy, who is this?" At this point i was absolutely freaking out and i stood up straight and said this is Elder Smith. He then said, "Hahahahahaha got you, This is actually President Cinco". (my stake president) i about dropped the phone.... i then said, wow president, you got me.... he then laughed for the next 8 seconds. then we had our conversation and then i went on to tell that story to the other elders in my house... haha we all had a good laugh.. and man did he sound convincing... 

well i think thats about all i have time for today. i will try to send a pic or two.

Love you all
Elder SMith

how come a couple weeks ago you had a funeral service every day?  how come so many people are dying?
the funeral was for one person. they have the funeral over a whole week. with a new service every day..... dont ask why...

what kind of fish do you catch and eat there? do you know if we have the same the fish?
 Im pretty sure they are just tuna... smaller kind of it anyways..

When is president and sister andaya finished with their mission? have you grown to love your president? especially being in the office?
i thought i already answered that one..... but they go home in july and yes i do love them.. a lot more so cuz i was in the office with them..

what are you going to do for pday?
today we went to the bukid in my area and had a lunch with some missionaries in our zone... twas fun. 

what are some of your responsibilities now that you're zone leader?  do you like it? 
 I love being ZL. i get to go on splitz with the missionaries in my zone and evaluate them on what they need to improve on. this helps me to  see what i need to improve on as well. Then i go to meetings with president and the Aps and discuss the progress, problems and other stuff of the mission(my zone especially) then i get to give trainings once a month..
