Hello family! So this week was a little crazy!
There's lots more fun that's been happening but I'll tell you later. All in all though, the Philippines is just so great!! Also so is the Book of Mormon. Siyempre! One of my favorite scripture from this week is Mosiah 16:9 He is the light and the life of the world; yea, a light that is endless, that can never be darkened; yea, and also a life which is endless, that there can be no more death. I just love it because anywhere we are, light always over comes the darkness. The moon and stars were created so that we have light, even at night. Following Christ's light is so important for us because He truly is our lighthouse leading us home. As we search for and follow his light, we will have His guidance in our lives and we will be where we need to be on our journey home.
Monday - Sister Sarfraz and I found rat poop on our beds!! EEK!!
Tuesday - Sister Sarfraz found out she's leaving me, so we went and said lots of goodbyes it was sad, but I'm excited because she'll be with Sister Walker(one of my housemates when we were in Guagua) so they'll have lots of fun!
Wednesday - Said goodbye to Sister Sarfraz and my new companion is Sister Ungos. She is adorable. Sister Ungos reminds me a lot of my first companion Sister Bautista. She's super maganda, maliit, and magaling (pretty, little, and talented!). She's been really fun but got really scared on our first day when a HUGE, BLACK SEWER RAT ran first at her feet, then to mine, then to into the cupboard! AHHH!! We threw a box of rat poison in the cupboard and tied the doors shut but we think it got out. Sobrang gross!!
The rest of the week has just been really fun. Sister Ungos' first full day in the mission and it was great!! We were able to find and teach some less-actives and find some new, really great investigators!! We're super excited!! It also rained HARD! One day we rode bikes and when we were kind of in between two cities we ended up at a vulcanizing shop just with a bunch of people from a religion who will just not listen to Mormons. We got everyone out of the vulcanizing shop almost as fast as the rain got them in. Haha but this week has been really fun adn we've been experiencing a lot of miracles together. Sister Ungos is really sweet and nakakatawa (funny)! She's such a great missionary and loves to work hard.
Love you all dearly and hope you have a great week!!
Love,
Sister Marshall
