     So I don't know why but I feel like I don't have a ton to say about this week. We worked really hard on finding new people to teach just about every day.   Wednesday we went on splits but Elder Resota woke up with a super bad fever so I just got to stay at the house all day and read. It wasn't quite the same as reading back home but that is just because I was only reading church stuff.  Saturday  Elder Resota and his comp had 4 girls get baptized which is super awesome kinda of. If they can't get the parents I'm sure the girls will go less active so I hope they can. Fun thing that happened though.  So one Elder and his comp had a fight Saturday morning , So I got to go on splits with him again all Sunday! That was fun because working with a Filipino makes me try to use the language a lot more. About the language. I'm still having a really tough time with it. I can kinda understand what people are saying sometimes but when I try to talk the words just get all caught in my mouth and come out wrong. Even though I am having a hard time with it though I gave a talk in sacrament yesterday. It was a little rough and only about a minute but I feel like I got my point understood. We have a kid getting baptized next Saturday and so that is super exciting! Joshua is 10 and just a super cool kid. He comes to church with his older sister Joann who is gonna be and investigator until she finally gets married. We were gonna also baptize another girl from that family the next week but turns out she is pregnant so that kinda sucks. The worst part is she is only 15 and has just totally changed how her life will be for the rest of her life. We haven't seen her since we learned that cause I'm pretty sure her mom kicked her out.  You'll be so proud of me I started eating Breakfast.  I've been eating oatmeal. One of the members fed us this week and we had  kinda a spaghetti with hot dogs in it from a member. not too many eggs. The food will probably be a little better in a bigger tow. I really miss fruit. they don't grow much in this area so it's all super expensive and I don't get much if any. Daet has a ton of pineapple so I'm praying I can go there.   Transfers are this week, but I'm not going anywhere.   The  town I'm in is pretty rural.  I'm kind-of getting used to the heat I think  but I doubt you can really adjust to this much heat.  We asked how many lessons he teaches a week and he said "This week we get a lot sometimes sometimes not a ton. this week we had about 30"  funny story before I go... Last week a cat got in our house while we were sleeping and jumped on elder brown. Scared the crap out of him it was pretty funny

 That spider was probably bigger than my hand but you can't tell super well
