Well i am sure lots of you have seen the giant typhoon that came through the philippines and many were killed and lots more injured. Well we were told to buy lots of food and fill our water containers because it was going to be absolutely insane and we got nothing. If nothing was said to us i wouldve thought it was just a normal day with some rain. It didnt rain very hard and the wind was none. So much for a giant exciting typhoon because we got nothing.
However this week is a big week for elder gsack. This week and actually today is the year mark of me arriving in the Philippines. It is so insane to think that i haven been in america for a year now but its so peaceful to see how much of a home this country has become to me. If i start talking to a person on the street it takes me about 3 sentences to convince them that i am actually from the Philippines and there are some days i wish that was the truth. Its so amazing all the miracles an blessings i have seen over the past year and i am so excited to keep seeing them coming.
On other news with investigators. We are planning for a big baptism on the 29! If everything goes to plan and they all pass their interviews on saturday Joyce, Jessica, Juanito, Zyrold and Zedrec will all be baptized together! So we are super excited for them but we are really trying to focus on finding new people for the coming months. We have been so focused on the people progressing right now that we have lacked a little bit in the finding category. However its no sweat when you are 6'2 and white everyone wants to talk to you :) just kidding.
Thank you so much for all the thoughts and prayers. I love you all lots!
Elder gsack
