So this week flew by! It feels like just yesterday I was sitting here emailing you all. The time really is starting to go by so quickly, and I know that after I get transferred in 10 days, it will just be so fast. But I am really trying to enjoy every minute of this adventure/mission! It's such a blessing to be out here serving the filipino people.. I will definitely miss it.

But this week - we are hoping to get 1 more baptism before we get transferred. Her name is Pheomela (Pomela). She is 12 years old, and full of personality. I'll have a picture of her next week! :) We also have another investigator - Alekxy - but sadly her baptism will not be in our time. Which is ok! Things happen for a reason, and her time is definitely close, her parents just have to have a change of heart.
So we have had some pretty crazy rain storms the past few nights - but last night was the craziest yet. It was one of the strongest that I've been a part of. The wind and rain was so strong that it was coming into our apartment through the screens! So we had to shut the windows and the door... and we also had a "Brown out" (Black out) for about 30 minutes, so we had to dry up the water and everything with our little flashlights ^.^ Fun stuff! And we also have a leak in our ceiling in our kitchen, and our little bowl thing got filled up! Crazy stuff. :)

I also want to share with you all that the scriptures will help us with all of our problems. The Book of Mormon - if we read it every day - will help us (of course with the help of The Holy Ghost. I know that's true. No doubt.
Love you all! Have a great week
Stay True :)
