Monday was my last day in Narvacan, and it was amazing. I was able to say goodbye to all of the people that I had met, and we were also able to teach the Maaghop family. Elder Scott led a great discussion about prayer and really knows how to talk with others about the Gospel. It was so cool to also hear his progression in Tagalog and the Spirit working through him. The Maaghops are so nice and caring, i will miss them so much.
That night we also found out that I will be transferring to San Fernando! Back down south in La Union! I was so excited and even more excited to find out that my companion is Elder Campbell! Another American companion is all right in my eyes! Hahah, I got there on Tuesday and from then till now we have been super busy working with the Ward and also other missionaries to figure out new ways to help others come closer to our Savior.
On Friday we had a meeting with other missionaries from the mission and I saw Elder Mereki there! It was so good to catch up with him and speak Tagalog with him! We talked about all the memories we had in the MTC and how the mission is! He is such a hardworking missionary and deserves the best! The meeting was really good and we were able to make plans for the mission and all of the activities that our Mission President wants to do!
On Sunday I met the ward and everyone was so nice and welcoming! There are a total of 6 missionaries in the ward so they are all so interested in the new missionaries and their recent areas! I am about an hour away from Luna and I am hoping that I will see the members from Luna at Stake Conference in 2 weeks! Elder Campbell has done a great job showing me the area and helping me feel welcome. We have so much in common and its so fun to be able to learn more about one another.
This last week I have been focusing my studies on Our Savior, Jesus Christ. I read the Book of Matthew and loved the attributes that Christ showed as he lived his life. Especially his Love for others. No matter where he was or what he was doing, he was always willing to help others and I think that it is a great example for all of us to follow. No matter where we are, what were are doing, or who we are with, we can help, support and save others from the pain and trials they are going through. The Savior is the greatest example of who we should be like in this life. I love you all and hope you all have a great week!
Ingat!
