153 - Diomela

 Yo Gang! Hope yall had a great week this week. Hope yall had a great time listening to General Conference. We don't get to listen to it till next Sunday. My week was low key kinda uneventful but..

Tuesday the AP's texted us in the morning and said that they were on their way to Sariaya (our area) to do exchanges with us.
It was pretty cool. I got to go with Elder Congerton, he's from New Zealand. We didn't really have a plan for exchanges so we just went finding. We got to use the car too, freking nice. They were only with us for 3 hours then left. He's really good with scriptures so it was nice to learn from him.

We then had exchanges we the San Juan Elders the next 2 days because Elder Pisae had some check ups at the hospital and the Second day we had interviews with President and Sister Scholl.

I went with Elder Pisae both days on our exchanges. We are the same batch into the field so it was fun having to lead all the lessons. We had a great time and found some great people curious about us and our message. It was dope.

Saturday we had a BIQ in San Juan so we went down there and they were having a feast. We also met the old Temple President of Manila and the Temple President for the Alabang Temple. It was kinda just a temple worker get together. Bunch of members, really cool. Also ate way to much food. 


Thats all from me this week. Hope General Confrence was good. I invite you to study those talks over the next 6 months. Also Easter is coming up. Great time to remember our saviour and the wonder gifts hes given to us. 
Love yall! ✌🏼  Pictures.  V

Time Travel to the Philippines

 He made it!  I can't wait until Sunday night to hear how it really went and all the adventures it took to get them all there.  But, this much I know...They left around 11:30 on a bus to the Trax Station where they got on in Provo and went straight up to the airport.  Sophie jumped on in Lehi and travelled with them all.  She took him some Pumpkin Chocolate Chip cookies.  They got up to airport, checked in their luggage, and went through security without any problems that I know of.  They had until 6pm to eat and play some games.  I sent a mini Bop-It, Simon and some UNO Cards for them to play while they waited.  They all got on without any problems and flew to LAX.  This is where it all gets sketchy... Apparently, we all forgot to tell them that they just needed to go straight to their new gate, because they somehow went out, maybe got lost, maybe thought they had to pick up their luggage?  I do not know. However, they ended up hav...

  Kamusta po everyone! Yeah so sorry for not emailing last week kinda caught up with everything here at the mtc but im chilling now. Anyways, I'll try to catch you all up to speed. Home MTC Home mtc was a blessing. I loved getting to know my Companion and my district over zoom before in person because I am mad awkward. My Companion is Elder Grow, He is from Morgan Utah, he plays soccer and is such a dope dude. My district is so cool I will probably talk about them a lot in the following weeks. But home mtc was nice the first day was such a spiritual high it was amazing. That next week was cool. There were definitely some ups and downs but having the constant companion of the holy ghost is such a surreal feeling and is something I hope stays with me for the rest of my life. Not much really happened during this week, it was really just to get to know my district. Provo MTC 1st week! Getting dropped off at the MTC was a lot more emotional than I thought it was going to ...

  Hello po! What's up y'all. Hope you all are doing well! The MTC has been such a fun experience thus far. This last week was definitely a rollercoaster but it was all good. So Tuesday night we had our Big Devotional we have every Tuesday. This week's Devotion was amazing, Brian K. Taylor from the Quorum of the Seventy came and talked to us. His messages were truly amazing. He shared a quote from President Ezra Taft Benson: "If you have the Spirit (Holy Ghost) in your life, you will achieve your righteous desires. And if you don't you won't!" I just thought that this quote was truly amazing and so simple that I would share. We have another Devotional Tonight and we are all super excited because this weekend is General Conference so we have a hunch that it might be one of the 12 tonight since they should all be in town!!   Wednesday was a long day. We had a service project in the morning. It was mad chill. Me and my comp Elder Grow skipped breakfast bec...
