Hey everyone
Well things for me here in the philippines have been crazy. We had 5 baptisms last week which is cool but we have really been baptizing too fast so now im running out of people to teach. Its like i found and baptized the good ones because everyone else here seems to be retarded or too hard headed. yesterday we went tracting and we were like, " hey we have a message about jesus christ" and everyone was just like " its ok im catholic" its like come on man, you dont believe int jesus christ? its ok i have some new ideas to find people to teach and it will give me a good chance to try out some new things i wanted to do plus a lot of my time is now freed up. We should have two more baptisms in just a couple weeks but i think im going to be transfered this next transfer but i know my Zone leader requested for me not to be transfered this next transfer because he said he didnt want to get a new district leader here. Thats ok with me but ive been here in tabaco for a long time now and i think me and my trainee need to get split up because we can get a little bit loud sometimes because we have gotten to be good friends. well thats about it for me here.

Hey everyone,
Well things are going good here in the philippines. Ive been having a blast here in my area and we have been having a lot of success. This last week we baptized a nanay (mother) and this upcoming week we will be baptizing 7 more people! im way excited. We went to legazpi earlier today and i got to eat real pizza and mexican food which was awesome but i spent a lot of money on it. Well because of the lack of time im going to keep this short. Love you all.

Hey everyone.
Me and my anak (kid), elder wright, had an amazing week. We had some many lessons and lots of people go to church. This upcoming week we have a investigator getting baptized. Elder wright will be baptizing her and this is his first baptism so pray he gets her under on the first dunk because she is 7 months pregnant and that belly might make it kind of hard. I dont know if i said this last week but my branch president here in tiwi got into an accident last week and things have not been the same since. The guy is amazing and really holds the branch together. Some guy from the district presidency came to our church and gave this wierd talk basically he said that we need to look for the good in our president getting into an accident and that now we will see if tiwi branch is still good without him. I didnt like what he said too much and i think he made a lot of other people mad. There is no good to come from a good guy getting hit by a drunk drive but its ok, forgive and forget. Earlier today we went to a way sweet beach in my area, maybe next week ill send some pictures to you guys.
