WEEK 79: NEW COMPANION FROM ENGLAND

   This week was awesome, lots happened. Many new changes and many miracles. I have been transferred and now in Bago Bantay ward. It is an amazing ward and the members are awesome. I'm super excited for this area. 

  Last Wednesday I arrived in my new area. My new companion is Elder Okuonghae. He's from London, England and he's the man. It’s going to be a great transfer.  It was a little weird being back in the city again but it will be great. It just means McDonald's is closer now.   When I got there we went to some appointments and then had an interview immediately , it was great. The person was ready and so smart.  We had an interview in our own area. A kid is getting baptized again in this area because  his records have been misplaced.

  On Thursday we had district meeting, it was so awesome. There are some great missionaries here,  very cool to meet them.  After district meeting we had some good appointments which was even better because the Bishop worked with us. This ward is so awesome and supportive.  

  On Friday we had a “fire” first lesson with a new investigator.  The Spirit was so strong and it flowed so well, this investigator has lots of potential.   Later in the day we had a miracle happen.  We saw this guy and said hi,  he replied,  hi back, so we turned around and talked to him.  He was so happy and nice and had questions and had always wanted to talk to the missionaries.  He invited us in and we were able to teach their whole family and they want us to come back.   It was amazing!!

   On Saturday we had another member work and we went to the house of this person we had talked to.  Turns out they are less actives and they’re part members.    It was another miracle and tender mercy.  Just shows how the Lord directs the work and looks after His children.  We then prepared in the afternoon for the baptism,  it was a great service and  had many investigators there.   So much potential in this area. 

   Sunday was great.  The ward was very welcoming and nice.  We had good coordination with them and were able to teach some good lessons.  I am very excited for what this week and this transfer have in store.  I hope you all have a great week. Stay positive.  Look for the tender mercies and keep pushing onward.
