Dearest friends and family,
I greet you on this week with a brand new outlook on life and missionary work. A rejuvenating energy has entered my body, and I’m ready for a whole new cycle.
But…I’m getting transferred. I will leave my home in Baua, Cagayan and go to Dingras, Ilocos Norte. For the first time, I’ll be senior companion. For the third time, I’ll have a Filipino companion.
This week was spent working with the youth in our area. This past week was the Gonzaga annual festival, so no school for elementary or high school. This culminated with extra referrals from youth and extra fellowshipping. Five less-active youth came back to church and two youth investigators came to church again.
All in all, this week was good. Our best experience was when the former district president Brother Bote joined in our lesson with Brother Reolalas. He shared his experience when he was converted and even offered to give him a ride to church on Sunday. The Spirit was really strong in that lesson, and I know it definitely gave me a few things to think about.
Love you all.
Elder Tripp
