Dec 1st 2013

Alright guys... first things first. Mom. HOW WAS YOUR BIRTHDAY!!!?? Second. How was thanksgiving!!! I saw some pictures and probably made a slight scene because I was saying "oh my gosh!! Sister    look at how good these look. This is my favorite aunt. this is my blah blah blah..." haha But, i hope that is was so amazing to see everyone and hang out with family. (Ryan. How did you do with all the food? I have a really genius plan for us next year. Dont worry.)

This week as been SO good and very unexpected things have oucurred. With our investigators.... Mj is doing awesome and will be baptized on the 28th of Dec. His mom and dad are active now!! WOO HOO!!
The DeJesus Family is working out wedding plans and we will soon be able to give them a baptismal date :D
We found an American! We talked to a man in front of his house and he said "alam nyo ba na may americano diyan sa yng bahay?" Do you know that there is an american there. We were like "what!!?? cge tara!" lets go! haha
His name is    and he is from california! He has been here for 2 years and is wanting to go home but he hurt his leg and has been stuck at this house with his girlfriend for 3 months. He was SO excited to talk english! I will admit though... I was struggling a little but i was still able to chit chat and be all american. Poor sis Finau was just sitting there like... ugh.... :) She didnt understand what was going on because we were talking so fast. haha

It has been amazing to see this area from when sis carr and i opened it.. to how it is blooming now. Sadly, i will not be able to see mj and our other families who are going to be baptized, get baptized. I received a call from the mission presidents wife and was told that i will be a new...... Sister Training Leader. (STL) If you dont know what it is.... its like a Zone Leader for sisters. My new companion and I will be over a few zones and will take care of the sisters in those zones. Lots of exchanges, meetings, and..... growth!! I still have mixed emotions about it and will find out where im getting transferred and who my new companion is on friday. I am excited though! I know that this is my last stretch before I go home and that the Lord has many new things for me to learn before I finish my mission. 
I love you all so much and hope that you are all well. I love you guys!!
