What do you spend most of your time doing?
We usually spend most of our time trying to find our investigators

find. The sisters who were in our area before us didn't really write
down exactly where everyone lives.

It is really big actually we have some areas in the city and a lot of
bukid (farm) areas. Our area goes out to the sea but we havent been to

mission president told us to go out to that area only once a month.

What do you like most about the Phillipines and the people there?
Everyone is sooo nice! It is so wierd because we will walk up to a
group of rough and tough looking men and start talking to them and
they are super polite. People here will never tell us that they dont
want to hear our message they will just listen to be polite.
Another thing that is kind of funny about the Philippines is that they
really like Americans. It is wierd they all want light skin like us.
The mothers love us and try to feed us all the time Also they
will often call us Joe because of GI Joe's and aparently they think it
is the most common American name haha.
