I am in my first area! This place is
really crazy. Right now I am an a town called Cabanatawan and it is SUPER packed. I'm in this weird internet shop right now haha. I'm a
little rushed but I will share a few stories.
So the first day we got here we went out to teach
and it all went well, then on the way home we jumped in the trike to
take us back. Super sweet. But as we were driving home we hit a
dog.... and I'm pretty sure it died. The guy driving the trike didn't
even look back. I guess that is common here in the Philippines haha. My
companion looked and me and said, "Someone just got dinner."
We have taught so many amazing people! This place
is really cool, I am out in the barangay right now, or the country.
Surrounded by rice fields! I'll send pictures next week. I'm not quite
sure how these computers work here yet haha.
Last night was what they call fiesta in the city of
Quezon that we serve in. Not the same one that grandma and grandpa Horsley are in though. It is super cool though. So every house but two
that we taught in yesterday we ate in. You don't even want to know what I ate. I just didn't eat the pig head or tail. That was too much for me!
I didn't sleep too much last night haha. My stomach isn't used to this.
Butttt! It has been good. Missionary work is hard,
but very rewarding. I just need to learn this language now haha. I'll
have more stories next week.
Love you all so very much!
Stay safe!!
