So this week was sweet like that Tim Mcgraw song says "Just
another day in Paradise." na I’m jest jokin’ but on the real the work is
getting Sawwweeet.
Mon- P-Day........ ya played lots of b ball.
Tue- Today we had district meeting and I gave a workshop on teaching
the doctrine of L1 P3 which is Prophets. Than we went out to work and taught
Joe Aguilar the Jehova’s Witness that's stubborn as a mule.. we (tried) to
teach him plan of salvation but Jehovas have a crazy belief on that topic of
religion so he was like "no your wrong, this is where we go after we
die" so I asked him to show us proof in the bible but he said he forgot
where it was so we did work again on him. I guess he's like a pretty hi-up Jehovah
as well, like a bishop or something. But even if we prove him wrong (nicely)
he's too stubborn to accept anything else..
Then we taught Manuel who has a Baptismal Date for Dec
13. His wife wants to get baptized as well so we were like siiiiiiiick. Than
after the lesson he introduced me to his 90 million year old (92) grandma and
(this story is too good) she started crying right when she saw me, and we were
like Lola "grandma" why are you crying than she said in Illocano
(didn't understand a thing) that I looked like her American friends son haha
and like during the war or something back in the day the American friend helped
her a lot. So I gave her a pat on the back (we can't give hugs) but it was like
(no homo) the cutest thing ever? haha.
Wed- We got destroyed this day.
Thur- Went to Pudoc West, a progressing area in our area, and this one
guy set a return apt with us for this day at like 4 so we went and his mom was
like ahhhhhhhhhhh sup ya he gone right now son so we were like ahhhhh dang...
k. Than we taught the mom and daughter, turns out the fams having a lot of
problems so it was sweet.
Then we taught the Marifel family, the referral from sisters
in our branch. I invited them to be
baptized a few lessons back and they didn't accept, but now they said, “god
answered their prayer.” So that was sick.
Fri- nothin really went down to sweet
Sat- (Another cool story) so when I was assigned in Sta Maria we had
to withdraw on P-day in the closest city (Candon) so I met this lady and of
course she asked who I am and why I know Tagalog and what not and she seemed
super sweet. Then I got transferred to Tagudin and I remembered she said she
was from Tagudin so ya like a few weeks ago we were walking home at night and
she's like "Elder Jones!" and called us over and we talked to her and
set a return appointment.
So today we finally went back to her and her fam and they
were suuuper receptive. So ya that's the story.
Sun- Had a church broadcast in Candon. Elder Oaks spoke but it came
from Manilla to the whole Philippines.
This week was good. President called me today and asked me if I could
train a new missionary again so yep, I'm training again haha it should be
sweet. Transfer Day is this Thursday.
Love
you all -Elder Jones
