Hi!!!!!

okay how does time go soo fast??!! is it actually November?! My goodness Sister Zoleta is already fluent in Bisaya and continues to overcome her fear of dogs everyday. Also she loves people and makes them feel so loved; ah especially me and she continues to serve and cook incredible food ah one of the days this transfer we were talking to a woman on a jeepney who had been listening in on our conversation and then asked about what we were doing and then asked if it were possible for her to come to church and be baptized AHHH what we rode way past our stop so we could get her information and send to the missionaries in her area and then as we were running back to where we were supposed to get off, the senior couple missionaries that serve here in Cebu drove past and saw us running and holding hands, and told us they just wanted to get out of the car and come with us. This story actually sounds confusing but sometimes I just go through the motions not noticing just HOW INCREDIBLE this life is and that right now with Sister Zoelta, we get to hold hands as we speedwalk place to place sharing the gospel!!! Helping other people feel true joy!!! I know that God has a plan for each of us and He has the power to do things in His own time. Maybe we want blessings right now or answers to questions or miracles, but we can learn so much from the Book of Mormon in 1 Nephi 17:51 that "If the Lord has such great power, and has wrought so many miracles among the children of men, how is it that he cannot... (insert any trial here)" I know He CAN help us and miracles haven't stopped!!! Brother Rene is one of those miracles for us and has shown us how learning the gospel changes behavior and relying on the Savior changes lives ah November 23 we are so excited and for our little part member friends to be baptized in December!!! these filipino children make me so happy and help to remind me that we don't have to be perfect or know everything or have all the doctrines of the gospel memorized, but we just need a desire to change and love for God and our Savior and thats what they have!!! okay theres so much more but life is so good I loooove being a missionary in the Philippines this is the best life ever okay nahigugma ko ninyo!!!




Is that a harmonica????
