On a different note, this week was pretty cool! So was last week. Sorry I didnt send an email last week. We went to Dagupan and Urdaneta and ran errands but it was fun. It took a lot of hours but it was fun and we got to see a lot of other missionaries.
The first cool thing that happened was we had a really fun family home evening at the Banago's house. We had a bunch of members in the ward come over and they all brought food and we played games (i lost (see the pictures)). It was super fun and a great way to introduce them to the ward in a relaxed way.
The second thing was a really cool simple experience just seeing Tatay Jose pass the sacrament for the first time this last Sunday. Our branch president just bought him a white shirt and tie and he was so excited to wear them and to serve in the church. He's one of the coolest people I've ever met.
I've been thinking a lot about faith and I just want to say that miracles are wrought by faith. Don't limit the miracles that God can perform in your life. We read in 3 Nephi that Christ healed everyone because of their faith. There wasn't a person he didn't heal because their faith was so strong. It really can be like that for us too if we just actively work on developing that faith.
I love you all
