Tuesday- did not have much time to say goodbye to people but i said goodbye to Gxxxn and he made a favorite of mine and it is this omelet with mixed vegetables and ground pork meat. it is bomb people...bomb! after that i went and ate another member's house. and then i packed everything and went over to the malanday apartment.
Wednesday- my companion left and then now i am with elder segovia. we started the day pretty late because i had to get things from the old apartment and then i had to unpack and spray my stuff because we have the beautiful problem of BED BUGS! WOOO! love that...but there is a pro and con. the pro is that they have been really biting me..the con is that my companion is getting all the blood sucked out of him, he might turn into a bed bug at this rate. anyway maybe filipino blood is more delicious than american blood. after that we did studies and headed out and i met members and some people we are teaching.
Thursday- I cant remember if it was this day or the day before but i forgot my journal at the computer shop i went to to email on tuesday! the worst but iwas able to get it from other elders on sunday. i met more members and we have been taking time to find new people. We met one lady named myyy ayyn and i had a good experience with the importance of teaching people and not just lessons meaning...listen to the spirit and to waht the people are saying and find out from there what you need to do to teach them and help them. as i was listening to her we found out that her dad died and so it gave me the perfect opportunity with knowing how to help relate the gospel to her. i shared a bit with her about my dad died and told her i wanted to share with her why i am still happy and it really helped make the restoration of the gospel and the true church meaningful to her. it was awesome. we really need to listen and hearken to the spirit and really try to find out how we can help people come to know the truth all of those around. missionary or not a missionary. us members have been baptized and have become disciples of christ and it is in us to be God's servants here. i encourage all of you to AT LEAST talk to ONE person and share the testimony. but before you do that think of someone and think of even how to relate it to them.
Friday- not much was done because of meetings and weekly planning
Saturday- We had another good day, sorry i am running out of time basically as i have opened my mouth and stop worrying about my Tagalog i have been able to be an instrument in the lords hand i am so grateful for the confidence he has given me.
i love you all and i hope you all strive to be servants of the lord always
