Leading an Area

HEY!

So almost for sure that Sister Falculan is transferring which for me is bad news for her she is excited.  This area is super expensive and she actually is tired of asking her family for personal money.  But we have been blessed for spending all of our might, mind, strength, and personal money in this area :)

Baptisms in Marigondon

Dear Fams...

So thanks for the updates its been awhile since hearing from you all.  Its weird to think life goes on while I'm away, but s much has changed.  I'm grateful though I have nothing to worry about except the worries of other people.  Which actually is WAY more stressful than having to worry about my own life haha..

So from your letters you say I sound happy and its so true.  I come home so tired every night and its awesome because we just have so many people to visit everyday.  I have become close with my investigators and I don't want to see the transfer come, because it brings change.  I could be transferring or Sister Falculan could be transferring we find out on Wednesday next week.  Our investigators and recent converts don't want either of us to go, and if possible I hope we both stay one more transfer!

Work in Marigondon Moving Slowly

Fams!

Love all of y'all.  

So I have really been worried this week for our recent converts and our investigators.  They really are like family to me.  They still have so many trials to go through.  Louis and Louie though are giving up smoking.  Although its not easy for them, especially since there is so many people that do not want them to succeed in this difficult task, they are making progress.  We bought them candy so that they can substitute candy for smoking.

Four Baptisms in Marigondon

Dear Family!

Work here in Marigondon is an adventure.  We went to the Manduae stake center at the request of the person in charge of jubilee.  They want us now to participate in the program.  We actually would just rather go to watch and take pictures, but its also cool that we have to chance to participate now.

We are not familiar with Mandaue so when we were going home we took the wrong Dyipney and had a mini adventure.  The adventure was fun but it hurt the pocket book.

We have four baptisms this coming Sunday which is a miracle since we just opened the area, and for this I am grateful.  Rochelle Latoga, Mirryl Latoga, Rizza Latoga, and James Brian Alphanta are getting baptized may 21, 2011.  We are really excited.

We were going to play volleyball this morning, but it was sprinkling, and here in the Philippines if its raining you will get sick if you get your head wet for too long.  So we just went home.

Transfers are coming in one week and Sister Falculan and I don't expect to be transfered.

Our investigator Randy came to church with his friend Leo we didn't expect them to come, but it was a welcomed surprise!

Working hard!

I forgot my camera cord this week so send pictures next week.

Love you all
Nahigugma ko kaninyo

Missionary Marriage Proposal

KAMUSTA MAN MO!

Primero Nahigugma ko kaninyo. Hapit Na Mo-uli! JOKES LANG BITAW!

So this week has been really fun. Today we baked brownies and cake Sister Brand and Sister Falculan came over, so it was Sister Caluyo, Sister Williams, Sister Tumala, Sister Brand, Sister Falculan, and I. We ate pizza and baked P-day in the mission field good times!  But it wasn't good for me because I made a pact with Sister Hansen our mission President's wife that we would lose 2 pounds a week, I'm just going to have to run super hard tomorrow morning. We have been running in the morning and we walked up the bukid all day yesterday I'm so sore its great. President Hansen challenged all of us to go APE in the morning (Arise, Pray, and Exercise).
