This was a great week! On Tuesday we had our district meeting and Bro. Pete was there. He is the American who gets us all the cool stuff. He told me he was going to get the Nativity sets this next week so i will have those soon. He also said he is trying to find some cool ramboo knives. After DM we went to BigMac for lunch...its a tiny burger stand in Burgos. It was gross yet really good. I think my taste buds are dying from eating rice everyday. After that I went on a spit with the other Filipino in my house. I enjoy working with him because he makes me teach the lessons.

On Wednesday my tatay had a meeting in Cauayan for all DL's and ZL's so i was comps with Elder Mago. He came to my area so I got to lead the area that day. It was fun and went to Rizal to teach our invesigators there.

On Saturday we had the baptism for tatay Ben! We got to the church around 2 to fill the fount. There was no water running to the church. So we had to go and find out what was wrong with the pump so after an hr of messing around with that we fixed it. Then the water was coming out but it was all draining. We could find the switch to stop it from draining. So after 30 min we found the switch outside underneath a concrete slab. So the baptism started at 4:30 instead of 3 haha but it was still just as great. Oh ya and I got my hair cut... I told my tatay i needed one. So at 8:30 am a less active member shows up at our house and says he is ready to cut my hair. It was really weird cause i just sat outside in front of our house while he cut my hair haha

On Sunday we had lunch at our new District Presidents house (our old Branch president). It was super good like it always is. Then after that we worked with some of the Branch missionaries and it was a great time.

I will send pictures next time because the internet is terrible and I cant upload them.

Love you all!
