half way mark baby

kamusta pamylia

It is CRAZY that it is already pday. Seriously. I feel like I was just emailing yesterday. Not much has happened really. We have classes everyday, exercise everyday, pray everyday, i fall asleep every where everyday, you know. 

Its really amazing here, and the language is coming along I think. Definitely not fluent, but gift of tongues will come. We are learning about the grammar and i literally feel like im in chemistry class because of the way our teacher is teaching it to us haha. Tagalog has less letters than english, and so ALL THE WORDS SOUND THE SAME. Its fine though. 

Yesterday we were learning about Joseph Smith and how he translated The Book of Mormon,  & wow I LOVE Joseph Smith history. Its so intriguing to me and seriously sooo fascinating. I love how Joseph Smith's faith was so strong. Why would people have so much hatred toward some teenager?  He got tarred and feathered, had to move, went through tons of persecution, SOBRANG MARAMING (A LOT!!)  of trials in his life for this church. Eventually, he gave his life for this gospel as well. Even the three witnesses, while most of them weren't lifelong members, NEVER denied their witnesses and they knew that the things that Joseph had taught were true. It is so flabbergasting to me I just can't even imagine all the faith that was required for that task. 

Ang Aklat ni Mormon is true everyone

Also, when we came to the MTC our zone was all newbies, and so this eek we finally got some new missionaries going to the philippines as well! I definitely need to kick it up a notch on my SYL (speaking your language) because i am struggling lol the field is gonna be rough

love u all choose the right and pray always,
