Ang simbahan ay totoo!

Hello everyone!  We had a decent week in the work of the ministry and we worked really hard!

 But first, an update on my Tooth:

I went into the Dentist on Thursday morning and he was super cool. He fixed the tooth up quick and didn't charge me a cent. I thanked him the best I could with a numb face and went my way into the highways and the hedges. It looks great great and I'm back in action!

We found a neat little Filipino family last week and we were able to teach them this week! The fathers name is Donde and the mother's name is Bless. Two girls: Alisa and Alisel. We had a great Lesson one and I was able to speak a little Tagalog! They were a little hesitant about being baptized but they seem interested and we got them two copies of Ang Anklat ni Mormon: one in English and the other sa Tagalog. Hopefully they will be able to attend church, but they will be out of town for a week. We have also been teaching another lady named Sister Nene who speaks hardly any English. She has been attending church for the last two weeks but she doesn't seem to understand much. It's kind of a lame deal. She hasn't been reading from the Book of Mormon either but she really likes us. We will continue to diagnose the situation and if she wont keep commitments we will drop her.

Brother Christian is our awesome investigator and we will be inviting him to be baptized this Wednesday! He's been progressing pretty quick, though we were not able to meet with him this week. However he did attend church. But now we have a problem: for some unknown reason the Singles Ward we are attending with him will be moved to 1:00 P.M. in a different building. Our investigator has work at 12:00 on sundays, so I don't know how this is going to work. Not super happy about it though. I still think he will be baptized but he needs to attend church in order to stay rooted in the pananampalataya. That word means faith. Tagalog is crazy sometimes.

Ako at ang Kasama ko ay ayos lang.

(Me and the companion mine are doing fine.)

Elder Pring is a funny Elder with a happy disposition and a good feel for the missionary work here. He's a little slow in the morning but he has an obedient spirit. He was trained by a less than obedient missionary, So Elder Walker (his last comp.) and myself and really been getting him all figured out. It's not his fault, he didn't even speak hardly any English when he got here. But now that he knows all the rules he is determined to obey them. He is a humble servant of the Lord. Well I've written plenty. I love you all tons and I am loving this opportunity to serve the Lord.

love,

Elder Higginson
