Firstly, conference. Conference was AMAZING! I can say that
I learned more this conference then any other! It was a truly humbling
experience to go to conference and learn how I can improve and grow. Heaven
knows I have plenty of that to do. Conference was in English, as most of the
members know a surprisingly large amount of English. Still talk to them in My
broken Waray though. Can't go slacking!
To mom, Hang in there. you survived me driving, you can do
it with morgan. she probably is doing better then me. to Tyler and Morgan, I
hear a lot about your spiritual progression, and it's amazing to see how far
you two are coming in the gospel. continue, no one is too young to know about
the gospel and have a testimony about it. To dad, Hi. hope the recovery is
going fine,
Most travel here is done by van, those big 14 seaters. Buses
are usually pretty expensive, so grand tours is the company to go to, and they
use those vans. It takes an hour and a half to get to catbalogan; with that
said, it should take longer. Those van drivers have a brick taped to the gas
pedal, I am convinced. they are HAULING as they go through foresty areas,
residencies, anywhere. I am not sure whether I call Filipinos the worst drivers
in the world, or the best ones.
I received Grandma's Card, but nothing else
yet. I may be a little longer, because when the package get's to the mission
office, It sits there until someone from the office or the president or his
wife visits our area. so, It will be a bit longer. Maybe the packages are
sitting there in the office right now. I'll never know.
We also Got new Zone Leaders. Elder Santos is filipino, and
he knows lots of english. Elder Esikia comes from American
Samoa. They are both really nice and ready to
work. It's nice to have
them around.
I am still safe, I am still happy here, and I still look
like a gringo here. nothing has changed. 😄
none the less, the work moves on. lots of baptisms planned
for october, and we just committed a baptism to a family on november 12. It's
so wonderful to see the branch growing faster and faster everyday. more and
more work is done, and It is amazing!
much love to all the family! I love to receive emails, and
look forward to your package Mama! Make sure the fam emails, I only send a
couple emails everyday. Make sure they email! don't go slacking on me!
Love you all, and until next week,
Elder Kuehne
