This week statred off great we did a service project out in Balayong. We picked tomatoes in a big field. It reminded me of a farm in Idaho and so for a second I pretended I was picking potatoes haha. It was a lot of fun and the man who owns the farm said that he would come to church... he didn't but at we are gonna go back and teach him some more. We had a lot of dinner appointments this week it was awesome. I love this ward because they know what Americans like to eat and that is what they feed us! It was a good week eating wise. Today we went to Pamarawan. It is an island in our area, I have never heard of any missionary ever going there before so we decided we would go. It was a boat ride down the river, and when you got there it looked pretty much like everywhere else in the Pinas. Cement buildings and lots of people. But the view was cool and you could see Manila bay and the big mountains in Bataan. We ate some crabs and prawns and rice and talked to some of the people there it was really fun. On our way back we went to a place they make salt at. It was really cool it was like rice fields but all of it was salt. It was a good experience, too bad there are no beaches in our mission, that was the closest thing we got.
The work is going well. It is pretty much the same thing every day, we are trying to get a couple families to come to church. There are lots more part members here in the ward we just are working on getting their less active family back to church. I am loving my mission and lucky to be here!! Its more fun in the Philippines!!!!
