We had a great week last week since our invitation is more on testifying to people about the living prophet and apostles in the General Conference. We also met already the parents of those underage (8-17 year-old) progressing investigators that we have and they gave their consent regarding the desire of their children to know of the restored gospel. We tried to build relationship of trust among them as well to focus on bringing good tidings to their family as a whole but unfortunately they didn't accept yet the lessons. We'll strive to build their trust more and make them feel how important is God's plan for their family if they will be united in their faith. Though some of our progressing investigators again have lapsed on attending the church and their reasons were not that valid, we'll strive to nourish them more particularly in keeping their commitments since their conversion is not rush and they need more support from their families so they could endure to the end. We have two progressing investigators (Jelly Delos Reyes 14 y/o; Eric Ben Fajardo 11 y/0) who are consistent with their commitments and we're looking forward on taking care of them with the help of the branch fellow shippers and other members, so they'll progress more and build their own testimonies. From the investigators we've found last week, half of them accepted commitment and desired to learn more of the gospel continuously. We'll strive to stretch ourselves more this week and minister unto God's children based on their needs and concerns to help them enjoy the blessings of the restored truth and experience this into their lives as families.

We focus last week on applying the Christlike attributes in our companionship as well as in our work and never set aside small stretching or improvement we needed so we can be more effective missionaries. We are very blessed to be healthy by reminding each other the good lifestyle we need to have since the season these days are getting dry. I love Sister Villaflores and she's very humble enough to balance our companionship's weaknesses that we may be able to strengthen them.

More members are working with us these days since school days are over. They are very helpful and willing to strengthen our progressing investigators as well as in exploring our areas to strengthen the branch. 

We have one progressing investigator named Sheny Subasus(12 y/o), a part member, that is almost ready for baptism on April 21, 2018 but will be moved on May 12, 2018 due to requirement relapsing. We found out the weak side of her progression since she's reading the Book of Mormon everyday, there's no problem with her prayer as well as her lessons; but her mother who is less active has less support on her that's why she's always moody (and this is her opposition every Sabbath days). We tried to BRT and teach lesson to her family particularly her mother, but she's truly isn't interested but we'll not give up on her and to their family as a whole. We'll apply the new mission culture and standards and will strive to become the missionary Heavenly Father wanted us to be and be more Christlike missionaries.
