This week was pretty stressful for me, mostly because we had been mapping the previous weeks and so our teaching pool was not the greatest and now I am trying to remember where people live and trying to decide who to visit and so it was tough not gonna lie. There was also a lot of good that came out of this week. We have a ton of part members in our area and as of now every single person that we are teaching are part members. It is a blessing because of course they have a really good chance of being baptized because their families are already members. At church yesterday we were sitting there and all of the sudden a girl from Bagong Silang ward came in and brought her cousin with her who is 12 years old, his name is Micheal. She said that she wanted her cousin to go to church so she came to Deparo ward just so she could introduce him to us and so she could help him come to church. It was awesome, he is also a part member and we taught him after church, it went very well hopefully he can come to church on his own next week. After sacrament I was using the bathroom and Elder Richards came running and told me that some crazy nanay in our ward was looking for me. I came out of the bathroom and she saw me and started yelling " Elder Musk come over here hurry!" hahaha first I asked her who Elder Musk is and then she took a good look at my name tag and gave me a big kinda friendly whack on the arm hahahaha. Anyways she brought her son to church and pretty much told us that he has to get baptized in this ward in 4 weeks.... her son is 21 years old by the way. I just kinda chuckled about it and started talking to her son, Erle. He told me that he came to church as a primary kid but was never baptized, he said he wants to get baptized as soon as possible so we agreed to teach him once a week after church as long as he was able to get to church every week. The whole situation was weird but it was a major blessing, We pretty were given someone to baptize who already knows a lot about our church and has a desire to be baptized. It was awesome, the nanay after church made sure we knew and remembered to make sure he gets baptized haha, gotta love nanays. So this week we are going to focus on teaching and since we dont have to map anymore we will spend more time finding and getting referrals and finding investigators. My comp is awesome, we are both going home together, we have been out about the same amount of time. He is a lebron fan so im super hyped. He is a great teacher and has trained a couple times already so he is very capable and I am happy to learn from him this transfer.
Hope you all have a great week! Mahal ko kayo, ingat kayo!
