Onion rings
Hello everyone!
I hope you are all doing great! I am loving life here in my area of Carcar!
This last week was a good one for me and my companion here in Carcar. This area is so awesome! It has so much potential, as in there is so many good things that are going to happen here in the coming weeks. There is so many places and people that have a lot of potential so we are so excited to see what miracles we can bring to this area. We are preparing for a baptism for a very awesome sister this coming Saturday. Sister Pasita. She is just so ready and she is so elect its amazing. We have been also working with a part member family that is really really awesome. His IBD is set for April 9, so we will see how it goes. But like I have said, there is so much possibility here in Carcar right now. I feel so lucky to be here.
There is tons of awesome stuff about the mission that makes it the best experience ever. I feel like I have learned so many important life lessons since being out here. I wouldn't trade it for anything.
Its pretty awesome being in a house with 3 other Americans becasue then we get great ideas like trying to make onion rings for lunch and corn dogs and all that good American stuff haha. We made the best onion rings ever the other day.
Love you all!

Family complete and headed to Carcar
Hello Everyone!
I hope you had a great week! I had an amazing last week here in Mabini. I can't believe that its been 4 1/2 months here already! The time has flown by so dang fast! My time here with Elder Matthews seems like just yesterday! We got transfer calls last night and I got great news! I am finally going to be assigned on Cebu! Yahhhhhhhh! I am so stoked. I thought I was forever here on Negros! haha But I will be heading to an area called Carcar and I will be with one of my kabatch, Elder Wilson! I am stoked.
We had a great week of work this last week, because we finally baptized the rest of one of our recent converts family! The Ortaliz family is now complete! Haha at least the ones who still live at home. It was awesome. Just kinda to go along with what I have said in the past, the gospel blesses families. I have seen it bless this family so much. And just some evidence, because most people would be really really bent out of shape if their house got broken into and robbed while they were out for the day...kinda like me about a year and a half ago in Toboso.....But as the Ortaliz family was at their baptism, someone broke into their house and stole a bunch of rice and a ton of money. Not good. But they handled it so well. They were not angry or bitter or regretting going to their baptism. They just accepted the fact that they were being tried...even on the day of their baptism. Anyways just a testimony builder for me. The Church is true, it blesses families now, and for eternity.
Love you all!

A Change in Countenance
Hello everyone!
We had a great week here in the lovely land of Mabini. We have really been focusing on finding new people to teach and share the gospel with. We have been spending time with a part member family where only the father is a member. I have tried teaching his wife and two daughters my whole time here in this area. But just recently they have showed great progress. They have finally come to church as a family for the past two weeks in a row now and we are so excited for them. There has been an obvious change in their countenance and it is because of the gospel is working in their lives. Its such an amazing thing to be a part of. We have a date set for them on March 5 to be baptized.
Its truly amazing how much this gospel can affect our families. I know that the only way to ensure our families staying strong and together is by living the gospel of Jesus Christ and letting it work miracles within us.
I had a great birthday here as well. We had an awesome dinner appointment where we had a great time.
Love you all!
