This week was really good and it really made up for our struggles last week. Church yesterday was amazing, 60 people came and we ran out of chairs, all of our investigators were there and less actives that haven't come to church in years. I was so happy and the spirit was so strong in our testimony meeting. We have 15 investigators right now so we are really busy and really tired... We are preparing three of them to be baptized this Saturday. I definitely have come to love the members in the ward so much here and that's good because I will probably be here for a few more months... Thank you so much Mom and Dad for your words of comfort and you are both so right. I just need to forget about myself and put my faith in the Lord. I am so happy that you are all doing so well at home and everything is rolling so smoothly. Make sure you keep Sarah close to you, high school definitely has a way with changing people..but you know that. We had a family home evening on Saturday in the middle of the jungle and it was so much fun. We played a bunch of games and every time you lost, someone would put coal on your face. It got a little out of control...i'll put some pictures in dropbox for you. As far as the language goes, I am pretty fluent in Illongo and Cebuano which feels really good, but I for sure cannot take credit for that. How fast I learned the language is probably the biggest testimony building experience I've had so far. It amazing me how much divine help and guidance has been giving to me in this work. There is no doubt that this is the Lords work. As far as the 4th of July goes, it was just another day of work here in the Philippines, wish I could have been there to spend it with you guys. I bet it was rad in Carlsbad. I am really sorry that you guys had to do some yard work, that must have sucked, but then again I wouldn't know... I am stoked that Dad is still helping Grandpa with the yards when he can. I remember whenever I would do there yards I would always start without them noticing because I loved to see the look on their faces when they came out and saw I done. Tell them that I love them and miss them so much. As far as my health goes here, I still try to eat well but its impossible to find the foods that I want to eat here. You guys know how picky I can be sometimes. But the bugs and stuff here are not that awesome, I wake up with random sores all over my body all the time and have had multiple mosquito bites get infected and nasty. Its a good thing that your sons no pansy... Man, I just realized that my birthday is coming up soon! You guys probably forgot all about it. Unfortunately I cant call home on my B-day so that sucks, I really want to talk to you all. Anyways, I love you guys so much and your all in my prayers. I am sorry that my letter was pretty lame but it will be better next week. I miss you all so much. Can't wait to here from you next week. DEUCES
Love you'
