Monday- Elder Belnap and i were riding on the back of a truck again, as usual, and as we were going along on the ride i looked down and right in front of me was a HUGE spider. and im not talking about your "HUGE" spider that your little sister will find in the bathroom and then calls for you to kill it and then you refuse and tell her to kill it herself but eventually you go and kill it and then say "that wasnt even that bad! haha" Im talking about a big giant long spider about probably bigger than a baseball and it had its long legs just hanging on the back of the truck right in front of me. i told elder belnap and he was shocked with how big it was! i tried to move away from it the best i could but there wasnt a lot i could do holding onto a moving truck so i eventually lifted my leg up and kicked it off the truck. it was awesome. my companion said he saw it move up the sidewalk in front of a family hahaha sweetest. Also gave myself a haircut, NO MORE BARBERSHOP FOR THIS MISSIONARY! the haircut was a success...sweet! (saying the last sentence in the voice of our beloved Napoleon Dynamite).
Tuesday- Elder Belnap and i might not be together for much longer which was sad to hear. Also, my comp and i planned a whole day to work with members...there was a ward thing going on sooooo our day was...yeah...but we got some members that had been reactivated from being less active to want to help us with less actives. [].
Wednesday- We worked with this ward member named Jxxeff or Jxxeppoy. He was awesome! i mean incredible and like coached our investigators it was sweet! he definitely helped with Ryyose. on a side note- Ryyose owns a door company and is making elder belnap and i miniature sized doors because i asked her too hahah hilarious.
Thurday- Elder belnap and i found new investigators. and i had the gift of tongues flowing through me like crazy i felt like. it was absolutely amazing and it was probably one of the best restoration lessons because they asked a lot of questions and i was just so happy that i was able to communicate and have the Spirit really helping me.
Friday- Trying to help our investigator gxxlen with reading the book of mormon [] we are gonna have to spend some extra time with him to help him
Saturday- missionaries in my zone have told me that my tagalog is pretty good so that makes me happy because sometimes i feel pretty bad. there are a lot of cross dressers in the philippines! thats just a little something random. Went to a stake christmas party...it was not a christmas party...[]. just a bunch of loud music and watching people dance. that was sad cuz it was called Christmas in November or something like that.
Sunday- this day i went on splits with the ward mission leader and this ward member Rxxandy. we taught two less active families and i did most of the teaching. the ward mission leader helped sometimes but i pretty much was taking the lead in my tagalog which was hard but i think it went okay because the Lord was able to help me through.
I love you all! Times here are rough and there are hard times but the Lord's hand is able to be seen if you try to see it. and His hand is also in all of your lives. We just have to choose to see it and we will see the blessings. we could all do more of that and it will help us be closer to him if we do.
Love,
Elder Wright
