So this has to have been the fastest week in the world! Compared to the MTC one day at the MTC is equivalent to a week and a half in the field. It's been a pretty great week. We have had dinner at a members house everyday so far and we have a new investigator named Aldin Bathlezar. He's really good friends and works with some of our area's recent converts. We have a baptismal date set for him at the end of this month but we haven't been able to get him to come to church yet so we'll so how everything works out. I got to watch a spider fight, for those of you who don't know, a spider fight is where two people each have their own spider and they put them on a stick and then the spiders try to kill each other. It's really cool, and kinda creepy and gross. I went on exchanges with the district leader last Wednesday and we walked all over the place and found a lot of people. I met some of his investigators and they have different names. Their names are Apple and Jelly. They are both really great investigators and are almost "golden" investigators. For dinner that night I got to eat balut. It's a fertilized duck egg and after the duck has started to form they cook it. It has to be one of the most delicious things I have ever eaten. I also got to eat goat, its really good as well. I am so glad that I am in the Philippines, mainly Sinait. It's beautiful here and everyone that I pass in the street says hello. It's amazing here. Me and my companion are getting along well and our lessons are becoming better and better as we get a rhythm to our teaching. We haven't had the most luck in finding new investigators but I know we will find someone that is ready to hear the gospel, we just have to keep looking. I really love being here and I truly know that I was called here for a reason, my goal right now is to find out that reason.
Mahal ko kayo!
