As of tomorrow I will have a new comp... I don't know anything about him other than he is a Filippino. I will be the only American in our house so goodbye to english! This week was pretty good but also pretty tough. We have been working super hard but not getting much success really. Our investigator who we had a baptismal date for has started to not be as interested and avoid us so that doesn't really bode well for us. This week we didn't get anybody to church which is the first time that has happened while I have been out. It is disappointing but it happens so oh well. One thing that I have learned from this week is that as long as I am doing my best I don't need to be too sad. Even though our week was tough I know that I did all that I could and so I can be proud of it. We are teaching this one tatay who is super funny and I think we have a chance with him. He obviously didn't come to church but when we went to his house after he promised us he would go to church next week. I know it is still a while away but he seemed pretty sincere. He said "okay three times you have asked me next week I will go" and as he said it he even raised his arm to a square so I'm pretty sure that means he has to now. Funny story real quick, while we were coming home from salay it had started raining really hard and then let up and because of the rain there have been all these super annoying bugs. (kinda like gnats but about as big as flies) we had to go across this bridge and they were in the air so thick we just had to hold our breath and run. After we got away there were bugs everywhere in our hair and in our pockets and just all over. Gross but I guess that is just the way it goes. I think another reason this week has been a bit tough is because I was/am a little sick still but I'm getting over it just a sore throat and stuffy nose so no big deal.
