First off I would just like to remind you all that my Fathers birthday is just right around the corner so dont forget to wish him a Happy Birthday!!!
Man I love and miss Sevilla Ward!! We had 3 Family Home Evenings just this week! haha the members here always invite the missionaries over and we have had the opportunity to meet more and more of the friends that also attend the Family Home Evenings. I lost weight in Bangued... but i think i know whats going to happen here in Sevilla again..haha!
I also drove to Bauang which is south of San Fernando to attend meetings with other missionaries and practice presentations for our upcoming Christmas Conference! CHRISTMAS!!!!
On Wednesday, I went to Bangued to work with Elder Van Dyke and Elder Fisher! Because they are both new to the area, I got to show them around and introduce them to the people that I had met and taught before!
Brother Rodel and Brother Reagan are getting baptized on Saturday! I am so happy for them and cant waite to call and say congrats! :)
While we were at the office one day, two people knocked on the front door and who was it?? Elder Strader and Elder Gilliat!! (Now Jaron and Steve)
They were the Assistants when I was new in the mission and they came back to visit the Philippines!! They are also taking us out to lunch later so I will send pictures next week! It was so good to catch up with them!
One of the best things that happened this week was church on Sunday.
When I got there we were greeted by my best friend who I havent been able to talk to for a while, Antonio!! He walked into Elders Quorum and screamed "Elder Pitt!!!!" I am so so happy that we are going to be able to be "companions" again until I go home most likely! He always wears his nametage and says hello to everyone he sees at church.
Also, I got to see Edson who I had been teaching before I got transferred. He got baptized two weeks ago! Im so blessed to be able to talk with him again and see his progression in the Gospel and receiving the priesthood.
I love the mission so much. There were so many things that happened this week that I wish I could put into words but I cant. Being a missionary is a different feeling than anything else and I wouldnt trade it for the world. I love you all! Have a great week!!
