#47 Boat ride on the Loboc

Monday, June 16,2014

Hello everyone,

  This last week has been pretty cool.  We got to go on the Loboc river this Monday for p-day.  It is a boat that they have some tables set up on and for a couple hours they take on this river where you get to see some cultural dancing and singing.  Also it was all you can eat food so that was super awesome. This week we had a couple thunderstorms so we decided that it would be a good idea not to use the bikes for a couple days.  It was a nice break even though there was a lot more rain.  In our area right now we are trying to focus on finding.  We have very few investigators but we did meet some awesome people.  One way we have trying to find new investigators is through inviting people to this English class that we started.  We have three American elders in my branch so people love to hear us speak.  It is really cool to see the Filipinos’ desire to learn English and become more American.  I also have been helping some of the members here with their family history.  They are going to the temple in September as a branch.  Most of these peoples family is pretty easy to track because they hardly ever move.  It is really fun here in the Philippines.  I know that God lives and he loves us because I see examples of it everyday.  I know that the Book of Mormon is true and that anyone can know of its truth also.  I hope all is well back home.  

Love,

 Elder Roskelley
