Week 59: Tuesday July 22, 2014

Family,

   New pictures! Go check them out. We had a couple of service projects this week & some other fun things so go & look at them. 

   Well, we've been quite busy as usual & I'm really tired, so it's kind of hard to think straight. If some things don't make sense, just keep reading & act like I didn't type it. Like I said, we had a couple of service projects this week which were great & lots of fun! I really enjoy doing service projects & helping others in ways that we don't typically get to because we are out proselyting. I also sent some pictures of a delicious Filipino dish! The food here is amazing. I'm really going to miss having fresh fish, fresh fruit, & other yummy foods here in the Philippines. 

   On a more spiritual note, we have a baptism on Saturday! Elder Harris is going to baptize the investigator that we found last transfer, John (Kyle). I'm sure you all remember his story, but it has been the most incredible journey with him. He has come so far & he is so ready to be baptized. He told us that he went out knocking doors by himself the other day! We had to talk to him a little bit about that... Anyway, he is super excited to start working with us once he gets baptized. We also have some really great new investigators that I am really excited to teach.

   Can you believe that it's already transfer week again? This Monday is transfer call & then Thursday everyone will be traveling. I'm sure Elder Harris is going to transfer. He's been here for 3 transfers & there's no way that we are staying together for another one. Which means I'm probably staying right here in Kamputhaw! I have loved every single one of my areas in my mission, but I think that I have come to love this one the most so far. The work has been incredible, the temple has been amazing, & the people are the best! I hope I stay here another transfer. But if I do end up transferring, I can say that I gave it everything that I had.

   I feel bad, I feel like my letters are getting shorter & shorter each week. It's kind of hard to find new things to write about when you are doing the same things for 2 years. But even though it's the same schedule, you always seem to find unexpected surprises around every corner. Everyday is a new adventure!

   Love you guys,
   Elder Staheli
