(Bryce sends an email each Sunday to update everyone on what is going on. I have some of them saved and thought I would stick them on here. Each week I will post his new email.)

Hey everyone
Well transfers are coming up so im feeling kind of nervous about that. I know that more then likely i wont be transfered but i kind of feel like i will be but i dont know why. Besides that not much to report. I went to >some cool waterfalls with my branch. Also language seems to finally be coming along. Well keep me in your prayers.
Love Elder thompson

Hey everyone
Well i wasnt transfered but my comp, elder gavino was. We were way close but my new comp, Elder alapag, is very hard working and im excited for this next transfer. My new comp is actually the district leader for my zone so ill be able to learn a lot from him. Besides that not much has happened just a lot of traveling because of transfers. Language is comeing a long much faster now and i understand whats going on now for the most part. I cant wait till im able to say ANYTHING i want.

Hey everyone
So its been a good week. Me and my new companion have been working hard and found a lot of good new families to teach. Everyone here is so nice to us but i wont lie, sometimes its really hard to be a minority. I hate being called "joe" but patience is the key. I worked a whole day with an elder from my batch, meaning he started his mission the same time i did. It was actually one of my best days and i was way happy because it showed im now getting the language down a little better. I also got the worst haircut of my life today. Its ok it girl repelent. One more exciting thing is I got recommended for senior, which doesnt mean ill be one but its a nice complement. Things here are going good. Keep sending the love and support. 535 days pa!
Love elder thompson
Also to all those who asked, Its not humid here.(in my opinion)

Hey everyone
Well things are going good now in my area. My investigators are really starting to progress and go to church so ive been way happy lately. Too bad ill probably be transfered before i get to see the fruits of my labors but its ok, i think thats just how the mission is. Nothing too cool to say but ill just keep it short.

Sorry i forgot one thing cool. One of my investigators had a kid and named it Bryce after me. I love these people. I promised her if she named him bryce he would be "pogi" or handsome.

Hey everyone.
Things are going great here in Abuyog, sorsogon. We have some really good investigators now who are always going to church and we have a lot of poeple who will be baptized in sept but im kind of feeling like i wont be here because transfers are aug 30 and ive been here for about 3 months now. What ever happens i know ill be where the lord wants me. This mission has been the greatest blessing in my whole life and has humbled me a lot. love you all and hope your all doing good.
