Hey Fam,
We had a baptism this week... PRINCE BIGONIA! He is the coolest kid ever! Prince is 17 years old and is the first member of his family. I have seen the transformative power of the gospel work its magic in his life. You can see in our pictures that he truly has found joy in his life:) We took his entire family to the baptism on Saturday! It was their first time at church because they have a family bedsheets business that they can only do delivery to the market on Sundays. It was super fun racing with all of them to the baptism! We had one trike filled with people, and then 2 motorcycles behind us. Prince was behind us trying to race passed us but we kept blocking him with our legs. I pulled out my umbrella and yelled at Chambers "Turtleshell!" Basta it was funny in the moment haha
The other funny moment we had was on Saturday afternoon. We went to visit our investigators Gramvelle and Benardita. We knocked and nobody answered, so we looked around and saw a 62 year old tatay. He said they went to a funeral but should be back home soon. So we went and sat down by him for a min. He ended up standing up very suddenly and just told us to wait a second. Then he just went and walked into Gramvelle's house and grabbed a table, table cloth, noodles and drinks😂 He was like "Alright, you guys eat snack." So we went and blessed it and when we opened our eyes this dude was nowhere to be found! Chambers just started eating and I was like Bro what happens when they get home and we're just sitting outside eating their food alone?😂 We ended up cleaning their dishes and folding the table and cloth back up so it looked like nobody ever went:) :) Maybe we will tell them that story in a couple weeks.
Elder Chambers and I are having fun together making plans for the Zone this transfer. We have come up with a few solid ideas to keep the Baliwag Family's unity on point👌🏼 We also bought some companionship jackets so we are unified! We'll send you pics!
One last thing I liked this week:
"Things work out best for those who make the best of how things work out."
John Wooden
Anyway, hope you all had a great week!

| Graden said this rainbow was incredible. Of course the picture doesn't do it justice but they wanted to try to capture it on their way to Princess' house. |

| An elder got a package with some mexican food items- it seems to be one of the things they miss the most |
