bit of this a little bit of that we just have been trying to get it
all done all in one week so ya.
Monday We pick up the new sister in the area Sister Cabigou she
was exited to be here and so after that we went and got some of the
things that we needed to do on p-day like shopping and laundry and all
the good things. Then in the evening we went and visited the Mello
family one of the less active family's here. We had a great lesson
about the family and how the gospel can bless family's It was really
good lesson and they really liked it so ya all was good. We then
visited another family and got some referrals it was good and also set
up an appointment to work with the member so all was good.
Tuesday we went to Candone and had our district council meeting.
This was really good afterwords we finally clarified the boundary's of
the two areas in Narvacan so that way we could actually proselyte
without worrying about who's area is this. Unfortunately in doing
such we gave the sisters two of the solid people that we had but to be
honest it probably will be better for them, with the sisters because
they will be more able to teach more easily and the sisters will
probably progress more. So ya. That day we went and visited those
people and explained to them that we wouldn't be visiting them any
more but that a pair of sisters would be. We had a great lesson with
sister May Ann about the Book of Mormon and about how it can guide us
help us in our life as well as about baptism. She unfortunately said
that she wouldn't accept the invitation to be baptized now because she
didn't feel ready yet but that she would keep reading the Book of
Mormon and going to church when she can she is supper solid and I look
forward to seeing how she progresses under the careful eye of the
sisters. Then in the evening we had a great lesson with sister Hana.
This lesson was a great lesson about the commandments and the
blessings of keeping the commandments we shared the verse in Mosiah 2:41
And moreover, I would desire that ye should consider on the blessed
and happy state of those that keep the commandments of God. For
behold, they are blessed in all things, both temporal and spiritual;
and if they hold out faithful to the end they are received into
heaven, that thereby they may dwell with God in a state of
never-ending happiness. O remember, remember that these things are
true; for the Lord God hath spoken it. She was supper receptive liked
it and agreed to proceed to try to prepare for baptism So that was
great I am supper exited to also see here progress under the careful
eye of the sisters.
Wednesday we had CSP. We went to a members house and helped
prepare their rice to be planted. The rice had sprouted and we were
pulling them up to spread them out for the growing So this was fun.
After the Csp We went and visited some of the findings we had done
in Orence . We had a drunk tractor driver walk up demanding money from
the people who we were talking with so we quickly was like thank you
maybe we'll try to visit you again another day. So ya it was a rough
day
Thursday We went into a new barangay called Sucoc. Here we had
lots of really good first lessons with several people that I am supper
exited to get to return to.
Friday we went out to two new barangay called Nanguneg and
Cagayungan both are supper hard areas and we didn't have very many
people talk to us so ya.
Satuday we started out the day with no water so we had to wait to
shower so it was a weird day. Then in the afternoon we went out to a
new barangay called San Pedro. We get out there and see a Giant
Inglesia ni Cristo church this was a little shocking but we were like
ok we'll keep working we work before the church and had a really good
lesson with a person and it was great. we then decided to keep going
and the moment we passed the church the spirit was like you shouldn't
be here. so we left quickly that was interesting. We then went to
Orence and tried to visit people. Then in the evening for dinner we
went to bishops house.
Sunday we had a good lesson with Joana the recent convert and her
sister this was a really good lesson so ya.
This week my spiritual thought comes from 1 Nephi 2 19
And it came to pass that the Lord spake unto me, saying: Blessed art
thou, Nephi, because of thy faith, for thou hast sought me
diligently, with lowliness of heart.
20 And inasmuch as ye shall keep my commandments, ye shall prosper,
and shall be led to a land of promise; yea, even a land which I have
prepared for you; yea, a land which is choice above all other lands.
So this week my invitation for you all is to seek the faith you need
to be able to do all things and to receive the blessings promised in
the verses here.
Thank you all for your love and support
Elder Ethan Davis
