Kumusta ang Pamilya at mga Kaibigan ko!
Another
beautiful week here on Palawan. This email will probably be a shorty
because of the lack of internet here. Slow slow slow so I emailed
President first to be sure to get that in.
Listen up, TATAY DANILO GOT BAPTIZED ON SATURDAY. It
was crazy because we didn't know if it was going to happen or not! I
don't remember what I told you about him, but he had to have another
interview with President Stucki because of some things that happened in
like 1972, His baptism was scheduled for Saturday and President was
coming to Palawan on Friday for our interviews (I passed). So, cutting
it a little close. I was the most stressed I've been since I got here!
After their interview, President called us into the office and asked us
if we thought Tatay was ready for baptism and YESSSSSSS. So he approved
it! Tatay was unbelievably excited. He started bawling uncontrollably
and in english said, "I'm really happy." even though he looked so upset.
He is a real gem. And he was baptized and confirmed. If anyone deserves
this gospel in their lives, it's Tatay Danilo. I'll try to upload a
picture, but the internet might be too slow.
Ano pa....
Oh, let me tell
you what I've learned. ALWAYS LISTEN TO YOUR NANAY. Especially when you
think you shouldn't. Two examples of this:
1. The other day I needed a grilled cheese sandwich.
But, you know, they don't have real cheese here. So I bought that
processed cheese that comes in tin foil and a card board box and was so
excited. When I got home, Sister Hunt (my nanay) told me to put it in
the fridge so the ants don't get it but I was like, naahhhhh. No need
because it's sealed. Nope. When I went to use it, the ants were INSIDE
the seal. I have no idea about it.
2. Umbrellas. We had a huge storm and I still haven't bought an
umbrella. Plus, playing in the rain is fun. So I was running through it
like a crazy person on the way home from a lesson when it was POURING
and Sister Hunt chastised me for no umbrella. Then she told me that I
should put a towel on my head so I don't get sick and I was like,
naahhhhh. No need because that's crazy. But, alas, I am SICK SICK SICK.
My cough sounds like I'm seriously dying and sometimes I seriously think
I am. So that's that.
That's about all the time. Sorry about it.
I love you all and so so appreciate hearing from you even if I don't reply!
Mahal na mahal ko kayo,
Sister Mecham
PS. Pictures didn't work. Next week na lang
