kamusta tanan! (hello all!)
This message might be a little shorter with that PMG survey we
had to take for Elder Ardern before his mission tour. Hope that comes up
soon!
Anyways, as for our mga tudloan(people we're teaching), they
haven't been progressing enough so we've kind've been searching for new people
to teach. It's hard to get people to come with us though, because they
always say there's not enough time or money or something like that. So
then we tried getting people from that area to come with us, and then we
realized that most of them who are less active live farther away, and most of
our active priesthood holders are in the city, so that makes a problem.
In the meantime, we'll just keep working hard. We've got a new
investigator! She's staying with relatives (members) and being their
househelp - she's 16 and has a lot of questions. We'll be meeting with
her tonight, and trying to answer some of those. It's sort of an
interesting situation - we're supposed to set a baptismal date in first lesson,
but there's also the standard of 6 months of going to church or getting
permission from president and there's also the part that she's going to an area
in Bocolod to return to her family, who aren't members. My companion
wants to baptize her here and now because he heard she has a lot of questions.
I want to wait so the missionaries over there can find out what she'll do
when she goes home at the end of this month. We'll see if we can figure
out a bit about that. But in the meantime, I'm going to go now and wash
my laundry.
talk to you all later! love you all!
