This week:
- We had our zone conference on Wednesday in which we discussed the importance of ministering to others. Ministering shouldn't be a new concept to the members of this church. Serving others and caring for each other has always been a part of the gospel of Jesus Christ. After Zone Conference we took a field trip to Tondo with the squad. Elder Fiesta, Elder Reber, Elder Cibuco, and I all went back to visit some of those we taught and a couple of members as well. The highlight of the day was visiting a couple of my investigators, Marife and Robert, and they told me that they had plans on getting married within the next couple of months and they invited me to their baptism!! That news made my whole night. Unfortunately we got caught in traffic on the way back and when we arrived at the house we couldn't get a hold of the missionaries inside and the door was locked so... It's a blessing that we have a van! That was the original plan but the Lord blessed us with a miracle and one of the missionaries woke up and unlocked the front door.
- While walking back to the car in Tondo there was a giant building that began to burn down and swarms of firetrucks approaching. Good to see that Tondo hasn't changed a bit since I've left.
- Erick was confirmed on Sunday and he's happy as ever.
