So Christmas in the mission field was a pretty good time. It was P-Day so we kinda just chilled all day and then we had a curfew at 6:00 pm so we couldn't work so just hanging out in the apartment all day. But still a good time and members fed us with tons of food so that was great.
New Year's was pretty crazy. On New Year's everyone in the Philippines basically just get drunk and they have tons of fireworks and karoake machines so we got no sleep. We had to stay in the apartment after 6 as well because their are tons of people out on the streets going crazy.
We had a baptism for Bianca, Jaybe, and Cay-anne. It went super well and I got the opportunity to baptize all 3 of them. They are super awesome and they really want to follow Christ so I was super happy for them. I have some pictures but the computer won't let me put them into the email so next week I will try sorry.
It was awesome to talk to you last week. Best Christmas gift for sure. As far as family goals I'm not sure I'm good with reading the Book of Mormon or praying for something. Whatever works.
Oh so for Christmas conference every zone at the conference had to perform a musical number so we sang Silent Night and then had a little nativity scene set up while we sang.
And if you are wondering a good birthday gift a new watch would be great. Don't really have any preference what kind but if it is waterproof that would be great.
Some names for investigators that could use some prayers: Solomon Bansale, Ernesto Bejino, Rolando Abrahan Jr., Apejas Family
Thanks for all the emails, Love you tons!
