hey!
Mom
please please dont send money or cards with money on it. I'm fine im
healthy
the weather is really dry for the philippines which is very
odd
they said they dont really have trouble with drought though. Well
we
have a baptism on sept 1 which im excited for Jerry Sending and
Jelo
hernandez so yeah. Zone conference is fast approaching and im
excited
to head to urdaneta to hear another president monahan talk. I
saw
the last baguio buzz post of president and sis jensen an elder in
my
district received it. It was nice but kind strange to read. Well
that
is awesome the new bishopric i havent received any packages
lately
ill look up elders savage area on the map. We have a basketball
hoop
in our house now haha. My companion and I are having lots of fun.
Im glad lexi's
doing good she is dating a boy from another school. If
she
isnt talking to boys at mountain view of course she wont be taken
to a
dance even if she just is talking to them as friends. We went to
the
one and the only (i bet)tourist spot in
all pangasinan haha earlier.
It was awesome ill
try to get some pictures to you its called
batchelor
natividad the people there have no clue what a batchelor is
even
my, fluent in english companion, im teaching him american slang and
he is
teaching my tagalog slang and sometimes ill talk tagalog slang
to
the filipino elders and they will say you talk like your from
manila
or something. I had to give a
talk in church this last sunday.
The president wanted
me to talk 15 minutes. They played "how great thou art"
before
and i actually didnt use notes because i felt calm about it. I
talked
on the temple and i was able to make the talk very applicable
to
them like if some people in your family are able to go to the
temple
and your not then that is a warning
signal to you that after this
life
you will left behind as your family walks into the presence of
god
for eternity and you stand there not knowing what to do and you
feel
the inexpressable horror that that the savior felt in the garden
of
Gethsemane. I think it woked up a few people. Some people still are
hard
headed to set time aside. It is free in Luzon for families to go
for
the first time to be sealed and take out garments FREE but they
still
refuse. It is a perfect example of the atonement salvation that is
free
but people watch it pass by them for nothing. Kylie dont text
boys! Dylan larsen emailed me. He's awesome ill shoot him a note in a
second.
I love the quotes the info every thing please keep it coming. I
love
you all and i pray for your
happiness and safety. Im getting old in a
couple
of months. I'll be
20 and looking back on my life its like a
quick dream and
this mission is quick. Adios ~Elder Barney
