11.28.17 Siquijor Changes


Alohaaa! 

Hey people I'm back sorry didn't have a ton of time in Dumaguete last week for Zone Con so Mom had to get it down for me and she was almost perfect, outside of her attempted translations;) hahah anyways another good week here we just keep chuggin away you know! The Carlos family is progressing and we will have two of their baptisms this week and it has been amazing to see them progress from when we found them, to now and their testimonies have just grown and grown. I thought Elder Ranon and I were pretty early to church on Sunday and when we walked in there was Carlos waiting patiently hahah love the guy so much. But we also had a baptism on Saturday of Laura Jane, or Dambo, an 11 year old whose family are all drug addicts and she is living with her extended family here. We did it in the ocean and Elder Ranon and I had to walk out to waste high water to witness it and it was awesome!  


But yea we are continuing to progress here and tomorrow is transfer day and sad to say that we received some sad and good news late last night. Elder Ranon will be transferred to Cebu and become a Zone Leader, which will be really hard to say goodbye. He has taught me so much about not just missionary life but life in general and his example is one i wont forget. Elder Cox will also be transferred to Negros as and district leader. The good news is that i will be staying here, along with my new comp Elder Briones who i have lived with for almost two months now hahah hes funny. And the crazy news is that no one will be replacing the two, we will combine the areas and have to cover the whole island from here on out holyyyyy cowwww. Pretty insane and my mind is spinning but i honestly cant wait for the challenge. 


Love this gospel so much and learn something new about it every day, and you all should too kay its nindot. Press forward in faith. 

 

In here we got some pics from FHE last night hahah with my new glasses grabitttt gwaps kaayo. Also pics from the baptism and the scarf is from our president and the other glasses from a member hahah I thought it was so funny that our Branch president who has a body building competition in a couple weeks rolled up to the baptism literally wearing it like how i am hahah. 







Man I sooo bad wanted to hear Parker talk in this video!!  Loved hearing his companion though! :)
