Hey Everyone
This week was super
awesome. First we got to hear from Elder Whitney Clayton from the
Presidency of the Seventy and then we got to hear Elder Neil L. Anderson.
The talks were super awesome. After the talks our whole mission
immediately went to the island of Bohol. We stayed a couple of nights in
a chapel with just some thin pads on the tile floor. It wasn't too bad.
We didn't sleep much but we didn't have to pay for our food or
transportation for a couple of days. On Monday we
got to go close to where the epicenter of the earthquake was. Many of the
buildings and houses were completely destroyed. We did as much clean-up
as we could with the Helping Hands group. It was pretty successful and
really fun to just clean up garbage and have a little break from our everyday
routine. Don't worry though we were still missionaries. We talked
to a lot of people and found a few potential investigators for the missionaries
in each area. It was a very successful weekend. We got back late Monday night
and then worked on Tuesday. Today we got to go to the
temple and it was amazing. I haven't been for about 2 months now so it
was really great. I am continuing to work hard and become better. I
love everyone back home and I want you to know that I know that God lives and
he is always watching us. We are placed where we are needed even if
sometimes we don't like it. I love God now more than I have before.
Ayo Ayo.
