This Place Is So Unique

Hello loved ones back home!  We are working dang hard here in the Philippines.  I have never walked so much in my life I feel like i'm going to collapse every night.  It is really hot here AND IT'S NOT EVEN SUMMER.  I think this might be the end, i'm going to melt but just know I died a happy puddle.  Well anyways this week flew by really I feel like i'm time travelling sometimes. We traveled to Makati to have new missionary follow ups and I learned that I have the smallest transfer group ever.  It's just me.  I literally walked in there and it was me, President Ostler, and Elder Desabille my companion.  President Ostler said they usually have it at a chapel and it's a big event but since it was just me he gave us one on one coaching in the mission home.  It was awesome!  Getting tutored by a mission president is such a great experience because it gives you the opportunity to receive helpful advice and guidance.  Throughout the week we have been able to find some really solid investigators and those whom we have extended baptismal dates to are preparing for their baptisms which has been such a blessing.  God has miracles in store for us we just have to be willing to trust Him and His plan.  We do this by working our hardest every day!  
     This area is so interesting because it ranges from some of the poorest houses I have ever seen to houses that I would dream to live in.  I'll be sure to take more pictures of my area to really show you how cool this place is.  I didn't get to take many pictures this week so please enjoy this one of my handsome companion holding puppies at a member's house.


Also here is a picture I took while driving to Makati city. 


Sorry I didn't get too in depth with my email this week i'm still deciding how I want to format these.  Also to those who came through with sending me packages of food, you know who you are, I love love love love you thank you so much.  I love you all have an amazing week!!!
