"Finishers Wanted" by Thomas S. Monson 1972

Tuesday January 14, 2020

Thanks for the supportive email! That talk is something that President and Sister Pajaro have referenced a few times throughout my mission. If i remember right I think they even had an entire zone conference center on it. I guess being a finisher is something that's been on my mind for a while now. Not getting trunky but just kinda seeing the end in sight. It's weird kay it does not feel like I've been out as long as I have. Like there's definitely times where it feels like I've been out FOREVER, but to think I only have another 5 months to commit everything to the Lord doesn't feel quite right.

I hate saying it but we honestly didn't have a ton going on this past week. On Thursday/Friday we were getting the piping fixed in our house so that we could have water so we were doing exchanges while that was going on kay there was an Elder who recently had a foot surgery so he was just supposed to rest at home. So we had him stay in our house with one of us while the other one of us worked with his comp. 

Saturday we had a little miracle in finding some returning members who also happened to have a recent convert in there house. We hadn't ever seen them at church but this last Sunday they came so that was awesome. Sunday we had the world's longest stake planning meeting that took up like our entire Sunday. 

Monday we pretty much had to commit all our time to find a person who moved here to Talisay from San Carlos on Negros. They were taught by missionaries over there and he already has a baptismal goal in February so we decided it was worth our time to try and find him. Long story short we found him and ya he's awesome. We'll be visiting with him again this Friday so that'll be cool. 

And then yesterday we had interviews with our mission president which took up our entire day as well. Since Elder Sudayon and I have been together for 2 transfers, one of us is bound to transfer, but since both of us got here at the same time it could be either of us.... ya president didn't give us any kind of hint hahaha. Sayang

But ya that was pretty much my week. Kana lang

Love ya! See ya in 🖐
