Ah flip

 So while I'm with a Filipino companion I'm just gonna start having the titles be puns or play on words about Filipinos. Now that we got that out of the way, this week was awesome! We found 13 new people and some of them are a super prepared golden Filipino family. 


We had zone conference this week also and it's always a spiritual feast to say the least. However prezzy switched up some mission rules on us. We now can't wear crocs so we have to wear good 'ol sunday shoes to proselyte. That will be interesting in one of the most rainy places on earth. 

Anyway, that's really all I got for y'all this week. I'll just leave y'all with a verse that I liked this week and some photos. Love y'all!
-Elder Eubanks

D&C 14:7
And, if you keep my commandments and endure to the end you shall have eternal life, which gift is the greatest of all the gifts of God.

Fliptastic

This week was pretty fliptastic as the title suggests. We found lots of Filipinos to start teaching and they are all super nice. Just like I remember on Saipan they love to feed us. Literally the first night we met some they fed us pork, rice, fish. It was crazy but very delicious.

We also met a born again Christian lady and she spent about 45 minutes trying to convert us and change our minds about the church. Anyway, she said she only reads the Bible when we tried to share about the Book of Mormon but she couldn't remember any Bible verse. So yea there are some interesting people in our area.

Other than that zone conference is this week. So yea that's all I got for this week. I hope everyone has a great week. Love y'all!

Catch you on the flip side

 Kaselehlie kumwail koaros!


This week was transfers and I'm staying in Nanpohnmal! However, Elder Callahan is going to Guam. So sad,  I will miss that dude, he is a legend of a missionary. I'm getting a Filipino companion so that's epic. Tagalog finding is gonna go craaaazy.

Other than that we've been helping our friends Dennis and his daughter Denisha progress towards their baptism. I'm super excited for them and their family. I'll leave y'all with a scripture and some photos.

Mosiah 18:21
"And he commanded them that there should be no contention one with another, but that they should look forward with one eye, having one faith and one baptism, having their hearts knit together in unity and in love one towards another."
