Oct 31 - Nov 6, 2011


Another great and really busy week! First of all it was the Filipino Halloween again, or actually their celebration of All Saints Day, where everyone goes to the cemetery and visits their passed away family members. Which is the night of October 31, and the day of November 1. It was pretty sweet as well cuz, for all special occasions here in the Philippines everone cooks a bunch of food and all friends and family is invited to come, eat and chat. So we got to eat 4 meals after our lunch at members houses. Way cool! =) One of them also was a birthday of a recent convert. Also this week I talked with 2 foreigners, one was canadien. He was way cool and nice, speaking english and i was really having a hard time speakin english to him, tagalog kept on comin out. crazy! but the other onewas even more crazy, he was american from Arkansas and he speaks tagalog! We met him in Olongapo goin to the mision home for ZLC. He knew tagalog pretty well but he definetely didn't sound like a filipino with his accent. haha. Also this week was the Zone Leader Council(ZLC), it was awesome, we played basketball again and also enjoyed the food and aircon at the mission home. Each of us also reported about our zones and the President and AP;s taught about how to improve our planning and goal setting. It was really sweet, learned a ton. We also got some more new investigators this week,and also some members worked with us. On Sunday, as you can see by the picture a lot of SA and youth worked with us. There were so many we split up and were able to teach alot of investigators and less-active members. Way fun. Well, siguro hanggang dito na lang ngayon. Salamat! Ingat kayo! Mahal ko kayong lahat! -Elder Pennock
