Week 63

Hello everybody :)

So I don't really know where to start this email off at..so it could be all over the place :)

This last Sunday I was asked to talk on Sunday... The importance of members in PMG. Our ward is actually not very excited ever to work with missionaries. For the month that we have been here we have only had a member work with us twice maybe.. ya. So, I shared a lot of stories with them, all encouraging! the first I shared was in the scriptures... King Lamoni's father-the referral! And I think a big reason I love that story is truly the conversion that takes place and the missionary work as well. His son and the missionaries Aaron and Ammon. We all want our loved ones to receive the gospel but are scared... King Lamonis Father was going to kill them actually! But, they had the end in mind... His whole kingdom was later converted :) I shared even more personal stories of how friends back at home have recently accepted and are living the gospel. I prayed so sincerely that it would end up motivating them to work further with us to hasten the work here.... and it did! Blessing! We had 3 members work with us for half of the week! It was amazing and one of them is RC too so it helped so much more! 

In this comin week we have some really fun stuff happening as well :) WE have another investigator getting baptized... but before that... their marriage!!! WOOO HOOO!!! Sups excited for them! And then we have a fireside thing that we are all involved in at the end of the day. So Sat is booked :) 

We also have a mission wide CSP(community service project) at MacArthur park before President and Sister Andaya leave at the end of June. Back to where it all starts for Tacloban Mission :) Even some of the MTC teachers are here on service and they will be there too... let's be real, it's just to have a party :) But it will truly be great to say good bye to them! We all love them so much! 

Funny story... So It's about our RC Melagros... like 2 weeks ago RC. And she id hilarious! So like I said we were just there to baptize the previous missionaries did the teaching. So yesterday she received her certificate and also bore testimony... here's where it gets good. SO she has already shared this story with me and sister ralph each time we have gone back to here since her baptism. The day of her baptism it was raining super hard. So she prayed saying she is about to become a new person and wants to make it to the church on time. And the rain stopped. She went out her garden and prayed again (take in mind she is basically showing the whole chapel her story and acting it out too) saying "Jesus... Salamat!.." It was such a crack up the whole time and when she closed, everyone in the chapel got a kick out of her, and she did too. When she was walking down the aisle she was waving and shaking everyone’s hand.... She was a movie star! 

Yup, so I love you all so much and hope that y'all have a great week! LOVE YOUS!!!!!!!
