Wonderful Experiences

It rained everyday this week except Friday making 13/14 days of rain the past two weeks. We held Anafe's baptism this Sunday. It was really great. She has such a great testimony. She has investigated a lot of churches to find out which one is true and she says that she felt this was the true one while the others where good but felt like something was missing. It was such a wonderful experience to be with her for that. As far as investigators go, Sister Droa's interview will be on Tuesday because the zone leaders are far away so they will be doing it on Tuesday. We are excited for that so we can prepare for her baptism this next Sunday. She is doing really great and we are very excited for her. Jona came to church again which we were excited about. She is loving the church and has had some really good experiences. We haven't given her a date because we still have to check up on somethings before we can let her be baptized but she is really looking forward to that date. Earljohn still hasn't been to church. He always has an excuse. We are working to strengthen his testimony so he will come to church and his excuses will fade away. We are also still working with Bella Consulta. We learned a lot about her this week and it is going to difficult to help her but through a lot of faith we will be able to. We contacted a new investigator this week named Pingping. She is a former investigator that stopped because she moved places. She is very interested and we were able to give her a baptismal date for August 31. She was a little shocked but I think it will be good. Sister Teruel is doing great. Still waiting for them to process their marriage papers so she can be married but they are suppose to do it this week. We are also teaching Gemma Mag-usara. She is very interested and she wants to be baptized but can't because she isn't married. Her husband doesn't want to marry so we have a problem. It might be because of money because he has no identification so it is more expensive but their is a law we can try to help them with so they can be married. We will have to see how he accepts it.

I had to laugh this week. I was transferred her 2 weeks ago and just last Monday, one of the sisters from Bacolod 2nd got transferred here as well. It was funny that we both came from the same ward and got put here.

Love you all,
