Mother's Day

We had a great visit with McKay on Mother's Day.  The Skyping session was actually decent this time.  Especially after we found out that a cell phone worked a lot better than the old iPad.  McKay is doing very well.  He definitely has a accent and he believes that Keagan suddenly has one too and sounds like a "hick".  It was pretty funny.  Keagan was just talking normal.  He didn't write a formal letter this week, but wanted us to thank everyone for all the support and to let you all know that he missed you.  He is on the downhill slope.

Good Times and Bad

Hello everyone! 

How is everyone doing this week? I hope you are all doing great. I had a great week this last week. We have been working a lot lately teaching a lot of members and trying to get them involved in the work as well. We have been teaching a really good couple, the Aldaya family. They are really good, they are really really willing to read and learn about the gospel. Our baptism for brother Tingloy Racho went really really well. It was such a cool experience to watch our Bishop baptize one of his best friends. It was really cool because they have been together through the good times and the bad and now they are both members of the church and working together in the best way. 

I am loving life. Its been so dang hot lately, we are in the later end of summer but its not showing any sign of cooling down. It hasn't rained here in over like 2 and a half months straight. Which is amazing for the Philippines haha. Its crazy. But life is great. I am doing awesome. I hope you are all doing great!

Restoration of the Gospel of Jesus Christ

Hey guys! 

I hope everyone had a great week! Me and Elder Wilson have had one of the best ones so far here in Carcar! We have made it a goal recently to try and refresh our teaching pool and find new people to teach and explore new areas. So our days have been filled with lots of tracting and just good ole knocking doors. We have had some pretty awesome experiences with finding new people as well. It is really amazing to see the hand of the Lord in the work. 

We have been teaching about the Restoration of the Gospel so much lately and everytime we do my testimony is strengthened about it. It is such a blessing to know and understand the Restoration. God loves us so very much and only wants us to be happy in this life. The only way for us all to be happy for ever and ever is through understanding and living His gospel. I am so happy to help people find it every single day. I hope you all continue to strengthen your testimonies and then help strengthen others. Love you all so much! Have a great week! 
 
Love,
 
Elder Davis

Siopao making

Hello everyone!

I hope everyone had a great week! Sorry I have been kinda bad about writing a weekly letter lately....I have gotten bad at managing my time one the computer haha. But This last week has been a great one for me here in Carcar. Me and Elder Wilson are doing great. Two weeks ago we had a baptism for Sister Pasita, which was a great baptism. This last week we have been teaching this part member family that has been preparing for baptism for a long time now. Brother Jurry and his daughter. We taught them and finally got them interviewed and they are ready to go for this Saturday. We are so excited for them. 

We were able to help Brother Jurry to make some siopao, which is like a wierd bread thing with meat in the middle of it. We helped him make it so he could take it and sell it around town. It was a great service project. We enjoyed it. 

We are looking forward to listening to General Conference this upcoming weekend. Its killing us because of the anticipation haha. I have heard that it was really really good, so we are excited. I hope everyone is doing great! Have a great week!
