Well it's been another great week here in the Philippines. I think I'll do numbers for this week:
1. We got our support again. Those 5 week months are hard to budget.
2. I love my companion. Sister Vaipou. At night we have "kwento kwento". Kwento means story. We pretty much just talk and sometimes tell stories. But we like to call it kwento kwento.
3. I have 3 pairs of stretchy pants. They were only 100 pesos each. We call them House Pants.
Sister Mckinney actually named them that. They are super soft and stretchy and they have sweet designs on them and they have pockets.
We call them house pants because "they should only be worn in the house" says Sister Mckinney. I made sister Lorente buy some in Candelaria and now I have made the other sister's in our house buy some too. We love them. (that is what the picture is...)
4. We have the cutest investigators. We are teaching some of the kindest women I have ever met.
Families are SO important in the Philippines and I just love being in some of these homes. They just love their kids and their families. It is really cute
.
5. We have fun housemates. They join us for kwento kwento sometimes too.
This week really has been good though. We met almost all our goals for numbers this week (except for investigators at church. Money is a big issue here) and we had some other really good lessons this week.
I am learning more and more how real Satan is. And how he works best by confusion and pride. It is so apparent here and it is really sad. I am very glad to be serving here though to help others know about the Book of Mormon and prayer, so that they can know the truth for themselves and dissolve some of the confusion and help soften some hearts.
I love you all and hope you have a good week! And happy birthday again to Mom and Josh!!
Love,
Sister Mecham
We find these at least a couple times a week, always dead (thank you permatox), but they are always this big. it's gross. |
