Wk 25 I learned to text on my mission
Hey Family!
So I wish there was more to tell you guys about this week. I decided I needed to write down more experience so I can remember them.
To answer some of your questions. Yes, I am taking care of myself ;). I am still comps with Elder Garcia. I will probably be comps with him for the next 3 or 4 months. We have been trying to transition the office here on Panay. This next week is the big week when the president will come and the office will be done. I will get my Philippines License in a few days too. ;0 I am way excited to drive. There are pretty much no rules for driving here in the Philippines... We got cell phones last week. It has been really weird learning how to text. I am super slow. I am learning how to text and walk at the same time. It’s pretty difficult.
As of right now we have a super amazing investigator, Sharyl. It is a family friend of the 2nd Counselor. We started teaching her about two weeks ago. She is probably the most perfect investigator you can have. We ask her how her reading was and she starts explaining every single part of what she read. She takes everything we give her and studies it like crazy. Right we are trying to help her have the more spiritual experiences. She is super smart but needs to experience the spiritual promptings you cannot deny. She also is a Tagalog speaker. It is very difficult to communicate with her when it is just me teaching because she can't really understand Illango.
I can't believe you guys are going to the Czech! That is going to be a blast. I have been super horrible writing Hana back. She has written me a few letters. I finally wrote her back last week. I just need to get it to the post office here. Tell Hana Congrats Gid! for getting accepted into the Med University! Tell Petr Happy Birthday also! 21 is getting pretty old. Shoot maybe he will be getting married pretty soon. That would be wierd.
Hey well nahidlaw ko so inyo. I miss you guys. Love U lots.
