Hello everyone! Kumusta kayong lahat!! This week has flown by! So this was my last week with my companion Elder Ruiz. I've learned a lot from him and his example for me. Only have a little bit of time to email this week so it's gonna be short sorry..

One cool thing that happened last week was me and Elder Burton went on an exchange, I took him out to a place in our area trying to find a member that lived out there. Well, we found her and also taught and found 13 new people! It was the first time that missionaries have ever been to that place, which was really cool. The people were so nice and welcoming to us. It was so cool to see the peoples' faces light up when they saw our name-tags with the name of "Jesus Christ" on them, and they immediately recognized us as Christians, not "Mormons". It was the first opportunity for most of the people there to see and talk to missionaries, which was humbling and an awesome experience.

So I have news! I have a new companion!! His name is Elder Abarabar, he's from near Manila and he is very, very hilarious. I think that I have laughed more in the past day than in a while hahaha. I'll attach a picture to show you all how funny of a guy he is. I'm also impressed by how open and friendly he is. Heis really talkative and seems just like a good guy. I'm excited to have a Filipino companion so that I can refine and expand my Tagalog vocabulary. It's time to grind!!

Love you all, have a great week :)

Pictures of Elder Burton and I in Allig...anyone who asked for a picture we just stopped and took a picture with them and then talked with them. Great finding tool..? Just be white and take pictures with people hahaha

This is a cool story: so we found the member in Allig and sat down and started talking to her, and then a group of ten boys came up and just sat down and asked us to teach them.. So we shared a scripture in the Book of Mormon and talked about Jesus. It was awesome.
