7/23/2018 Ulan Pa More

This week has been sooooo rainy. There is a tropical storm near the coast of the Philippines so the rain is pretty crazy and it has been raining every day for the past week and a half. We keep getting text warnings about flooding, thankfully our house is on a small hill and we live on the top floor so we dont really have to worry about our house flooding :)

This week we did lots of member visits following up on the referrals they gave us, the only problem is with the rain it seems like every one is too busy to help us. We were able to find some families though this week and the lessons went great. Again it was pouring on Sunday so the attendance was very very low...but there is always next week right? On Saturday night i woke up at 1 am and i could feel that my legs were wet, i was confused so i got up and there was a huge rain storm and the wind was very strong, it was crazy loud too it was the strongest storm i have experienced so far on my mission. anyways we (being the smart missionaries we are) left all the windows open i the whole house haha. the rain was coming in the house and it was getting everything wet. All four of us woke up and ran to go shut all the windows of the house, there was already some water in our house but nothing too bad. Our clothes outside on the clothes line were soaked haha and we had to get them off so they didn't fly away. sad to say we lost a few socks that night. after it all we were all wet and there was nothing we could really do about it so we just went back to bed. In the morning some of the roofs of the houses close were damaged and like i said before the church attendance was not the best. 

 Thankfully we do have some progressing investigators and one of them came to church and we have a bap date set up in August....transfers are on Aug 8 so i really hope i stay here in Deparo so i can be here for that. Also because our house is huge and really nice...we are lucky haha. I am loving my mission, the time goes faster and faster every week and the mission truly gets funner every week as well. This country is awesome, the people are the nicest people in the world. I could fill a huge book of all the acts of kindness i have experienced from these humble people. I wish i could just baptize all of them haha. Love you guys have a great week! as my unlce skee always says "remember Jesus loves you!"
