Matthew's adventures in the Philippines: Christmas and New years

We had some good success this week and seem to have some good investigators.

Wednesday was the sweatiest day of my mission so far. At one point my shirt was pretty damp. After getting home I took a nice cold shower. One investigator we visited is progressing amazingly. We found her about three weeks ago and she has already been to church twice and has read the Book of Mormon up until 2 nephi 17. It is awesome. She is very interested in the church. The only problem is if her "guardians" won't like the church. They are gone right now and were gone when we began teaching. It shouldn't be a huge problem because she is 22 and doesn't need anyone's permission to be baptised.

Thursday was a very successful day. We were able to teach 6 lessons. It was also transfers today and I will be staying in Quezon at least until mid February

Saturday was a fun day because curfew was 6:00 pm. They just wanted us to be safe for New Years eve. We had snacks and played some games so it was really fun.

Sunday I was pretty tired in the morning because of a bad nights sleep due to the noise outside. At church we had 11 investigators attend. It was awesome! I have never had that many at church before. Elder Ramos and I also taught the the gospel principles class.
