Last P day we went to a tourist spot called bakers hill. There were a lot of statues and things to take pictures of. There was also a really good bakery there.

This past week was transfers. I am still in Puerto Princesa but have a new companion, Elder Arpon. He only has three months left or two transfers. That means either this will be my last transfer here or I will be here in this area for a long time. Elder Arpon is from Leyte. His language is warai warai. One cool thing on my mission is that I have never had a companion who's native language was the same as another companion. 1st companion Bisaya, second companion Pangalatok, Third companion, Ilocano, and now my fourth companion's native language is Warai Warai. There are so many languages in the Philippines.
Because transfers were this week it was pretty long and lots of missionaries stayed over at our apartment which of course resulted in sleep deprivation. One cool thing was two missionaries that were serving in Quezon, my first area were being transferred to Manila and I was able to follow up what has happened since I left. The 22 year old sister that we baptized is still active in the church and wants to serve a mission. Her 18 year old brother that was baptized the week after I left is now the young men's president and also wants to serve a mission. The family with the mother and four girls that we baptized are still active as well. I was really happy to find that the people we baptized in my first area are still active and going to church and that some of them may serve missions.
As for this area it is a lot more tough but we have been seeing some success. Last Sunday some new investigators that we only taught once happened to show up at church and seemed to have a good experience. Another investigator that we have been working on also showed up with his family. We are working on getting him married. I think we should be seeing some success in this area over the next few months.
