These weeks have gone by so fast. We have been focusing on our work and our investigators. We have had the best attendance of investigators at church the past 2 weeks. 11 one week and 16 the other week. Way awesome! Which also means some of our investigators are starting to progress. But we still got a ton of work to do, we only got one with a baptism goal date, but she still has yet to come to church. The one family who we have been teaching for quite a while now came to church too, the Huellas Family.
We had apartment interviews this last week. That was cool, our Mission President and his wife came to our house and told us all the things we need to be doing better. =) oh they need congratulate and give us a 'thumbs up' on the stuff we were doin well.
We are doin better with lessons with a member present. Every Sunday some youth go work with us. This Sunday it was funny. We had to walk through some mud. Us and one of the girls went through it no problem even though she was in heals. The other girl borrowed some sandals from a lady there. And the guy who was with us who wore some nice shoes got carried across by some guy. haha
It's goin good here. Last p-day one of the young men in the branch, Joshua, came and helped us do yard work in our backyard and told us of all the good food we got growin back there. Then later some young women came and helped us and taught us how to properly wash our clothes. Then we had a Family Home Evening at a part member family. That went way well. Had a lesson and fun games. So that was a cool, fun day.
It is still raining off and on here. One evening it was pouring, last saturday. And we had to cross this long bridge which is made of tree trunks. It was so slippery I am glad they have a handrail. Also that was like the one time it wasn't really got so E. Westwood asked if I wanted to have hot chocolate when we got home. I said yeah, but we were fasting. I just had cold chocolate later in the week.
One of our investigators, a real old guy, believes Jesus is here in the Philippines in Tarlac, and said he saw him. I just don't know.
It's awesome to see how the kids find stuff to play. A huge thing here is rubber bands. They have a ton of games with those. They play like marbles with them, they shoot them, like a golf game, jump rope, to name a few. Oh also, they play this kinda hacky sack kicking game, with just a wrapper stuck to a peso (coin). So yeah pretty sweet. But I think that is it for this week. E. Pennock
