Good morning Fam!
I hope that you all had a great week and that you really enjoyed the time you got to spend together at home. And mom, I can't wait for that home cooked bbq that you promised me. I have really gotten over the food here.. Same thing day after day, after day, after day... I mostly just eat eggs and rice but last night a member family fed us a big dinner. Rice (of course), fish, stir fry veggies and a bunch of filipino fruit. And you know how much i love my fruit! I have been thinking about putting some watermelons on back order for when I get home? Just kidding. I am going on a hard core diet when I get home again because I am gonna get kelly to train and run another marathon with me.. :) Early happy birfday to my girl KELLY by the way. You're the best and I love you! I will be thinking about you this week.. I am super excited about my package by the way! Can't wait to see whats inside. Well, this week is transfer week and AI am really scared that I will transfer right before my b-day on Saturday. I have big plans because we have 3 baptisms on Saturday so I am having a bunch of members make some good food and we will just celebrate after the baptism... But, all my plans will be ruined if I transfer tomorrow. But then again, it wouldn't be that bad because my comp has been testing my Christlike attributes this week. The mission is the best :) I have learned so much and still have so much more to learn! Hopefully this week, I can overcome my weaknesses and show Elder David some love this week. Bob Marley believed that love could conquer all... me too. Dad, what you said is so true. Christ like love is what sets us apart from the world.We need to look past the little weaknesses that we all share and just live what we believe.. I threw some pictures on drop box of our "sharing the love" this week with the Filipinos! Our trials only make us stronger! :) We have been teaching a gang of hood rats that live here in Aguisan for the last 2 months.. Yesterday, 4 of them came to church where button up shirts :) Nothing is impossible.. Tell grandma and grandpa that I sent a letter their way. But I forgot their address so I just sent it to you. Pass it along please :) I love you all so much. I am praying for all of you and I know that God is mindful of all of you. The blessings are there, whether we choose to see them or not. Have a great week!
