Kumusta!
I take back that they don’t celebrate Halloween. They do, but
its called "all saints day" and all they really do is get together
and eat food and celebrate dead people. Nothing like in America.
The Ramon Elders at the baptism of Jay Padilla. |
Elder Hamblin got tired of Tracting because he found it boring
and depressing, so he has re-named it, "Adventure Time," the time
that we scour the deepest caves, the densest forests and scale
the highest mountains looking for those that need to hear the "good
news."
Tracting is just looking for new investigators by talking to
random people about Jesus. Adventure
time is much more exciting. He now writes that in his planners…with the
addition of a sword.
Interesting news about the new age limit of missionaries;
Abad is a common name in this area, but it doesn't always work on a business. |
When we heard this Friday from President Carlos, There had been
8,000 mission papers submitted since the announcement. You know how many
mission papers usually get submitted in that same period of time? 300 to 500. The fact becomes more amazing when you
think of the process of mission papers and how many more will continue to pour
in. There is going to be a bit of an influx of missionaries would be my guess,
over the next year of course. This is an immediate installment of strength.
I have been receiving serialized letters from my father about
his life and conversion, he had better keep writing them.
I love you all so much.
Have a great week, everybody.
Mahal ko kayo!
Elder Allen
