Glory in Tribulation

Hello all!

This last week was really tough on the work. We didn't get many lessons and things just came up. It rained like nuts two of the days. We were scared to go outside, so we just waited in the apartment until the rain at least calmed down. Did plenty of walking, not as much teaching as I would have liked. One of our new investigators got sick so we weren't able to teach him until last night, another we teach during seminary, but there was no seminary, and when we went to her house she wasnt home anyway. Another one was called by her dad and needed to go home to Antipolo, up north, under Quezon City Mission.

Other than that it was a good week. Elder Whitman and I are doing great; we had bonding time this week, it was fun.

To answer mom's question, Kenjay is 16 and Helbert is 13 still. They are both still really good. Excited for conference and their baptism the next week.

Despite the down-ness of this last week we "glory in tribulation" (Joseph Smith) and have new hope and confidence in the coming week. Good thing this last Sunday was fast Sunday, we are going to need it.
That's really all I have. Hard to write a bunch when not much happened. Hope you all have a good week. Can't wait to watch conference this weekend!

Elder Phelps!
