Week 88 - Bonbon 2/18/2013

well just to start off you all have had a special week i really wish i got to spend more time listening to the apostles speaking and things but since im a missionary i dont really have a ton of time and i cant use the internet to look things up but im always so excited to hear about spiritual experiences like that and i really hope you are all able to apply the things you learned. well i didnt get to do a whole lot because i was sick for a few days but tuesday before i got sick we gave a training to the zone about goal setting and being better prepared to teach and it really helps chapter 10 in preach my gospel is all about teaching skills and me and elder myers have been trying to become better teachers and but then tuesday night i got sick but we still did planning for a full day of work because we had exchanges and i really wanted to work but didnt get to. then we got the transfer announcement and only 2 out of our 18 missionaries are transfered so we are basicly all the same but im sure next transfer day a lot of us will transfer and its crazy because a transfer is usually 6 weeks but this one is only 4 because of the adjustment for the MTC and its just going to be crazy trying to get all of our companion exchanges in in only 4 weeks instead of 6 its a lot less time but we planned it all out and it should be ok but thats really about it about the zone. but as for our work we have a new investigator who has been coming to church for like 3 months now and he hasnt been beeing taught because after the missionaries before got pulled out the new missionaries didnt know about him because the past missionaries did not make a teaching record but any way he is amazing he wants to serve a mission he is freinds with the young men that just left from our ward here in Bobon and he wants to go to so we have planned for him to be baptized this march 9th and our other investigator jeffrey to be baptized on the 2nd so its going to be awesome they are both so ready to be baptized and im just so happy to be assigned in this ward in my opinion it is the most organized ward in the entire mission and it is just amazing there are 4 patriarchs in the entire mission and 2 of them are in our ward so cool it is just such and amazing place and the members love to do missionary work they go and visit our investigators just to be fellowshippers like all the time and they are just amazing and they all have callings and do their best to full fill them its almost like a ward back home but its not english so amazing but ya so this week we have exchanges in allen and we have a zone conference in calbayog and i am really excited but lots of traveling we are going to allen tonight and wont be back in bobon until wednesday late night so im pretty sure im going to be really tired in the coming days because we are going to be really busy but im super excited and cant wait to see what the Lord has in store for us well i love you all and dad brother cornelius says hi and wants to know how your doing he is awesome and ive been told that dads trainer lives somewhere in my mission and is a doctor so thats cool to hear but anyway i have a question i was reading some stuff while i was sick and i need to know so i can let the office know but i need to know if you are coming here because in the letter dad wrote at the beach it said he was excited to come and get me so i kind of need to know that so i can inform the office before he buys my plane ticket which he will be buying in like 2 weeks from now so its kind of important but any way have a good week and if ever there is a hard time in life look to the scriptures for help
