September 21, 2014

Helloooo,
The time is going by so fast! You guys know that the batch ahead of me goes home today! Which means that I am next in line! BTW, today is transfer day again so we are gonna be waiting for a call tonight. I am pretty sure that I will be transferred to Bacolod because that is what President usually does to "white" missionaries before they go home. I am super excited by the way to go feed the homeless people on thanksgiving. But the will have to forgive me if I don't have a whole lot of empathy for them because I have seen a lot of very, very poor people in the last 2 years... Last week was awesome. We got to baptize sister Rebecca Genabe and sister Asherrie Esquivel. We found them both through less active families who are now coming back to church! This work is awesome. On sunday, we had stake conference and 1,180 people showed up so we ended up standing... BUt it was still an awesome meeting. President Lopez showed up and spoke on member missionary work. I love listening to President speak because he knows everything about the gospel. He speaks with such power even though he is such a small guy. It's actually kind of funny. But anyways, the work here in Aguisan is going great! This has probably become my favorite area. I love the people here even though I am persecuted all the time for being a huge white american... It's all good though because it is helping me be more like Jesus... Today, we are going to go play basket ball in Binalbagan with the other missionaries so that will be fun. Then it's back to work! It is nonstop here in the mission field and it's gonna stay that way until the end! I love you all. Keep on enjoying your time in paradise and dad, don't make any car choices without me... 
Keep it real,
Elder Pulsipher
