July 2015

July 5th.... Well first off we have another baptism set for july 25! And our investigator who passed away had a family and I will try and write down his name and info and hopefully after my mission get his temple work done or see if any one else is wanting to do it! I am glad to hear about Lucas doing well and everyone staying active and fit! ....So this week has been good some drunk guy last night tried telling us that we where going to hell and that if we wanted to be saved we would have to be catholic and I just laughed like in his face because he was drunk and smelt like smoke and was trying to chastise us hahaha! But its all good cause he left with a smile and I didn't punch him haha! the philippines is crazy ...I am grateful that i am apart of this gospel! I don't know what to write cause it was a boring week but I really like the members in my new area and they are super fun and funny! .... almost at a year and times gone by, its sad because i have made so many friends on the mission that have gone home now and idk if I will ever see them again! Love you all, Love Elder Herrin
July 12.....Her name( the girl scheduled for baptism) is princess and then we have hopefully her and then this other girl named Rosette and one more named Camile shortly after! so many miracles! Okay love you hope everything is okay!

... with our baptism we are putting it back until august 1st or 8th but we had 4 investigators come to church this week so that was a huge blessing even tho I think we could get a lot more coming!... I have a lot of pics to send so you get to see the beauty of the philippines haha! .. I heard a talk recently about the Book of mormon and it just said that we can read the book of mormon and get through it several times in two years but how much times does the book of mormon go through us? and then he went on to say personalize the book of mormon and make sure after every page you learn something! So that was really cool for me to here his name is Elder Ardern! anyways love you all hope all is well, Love Elder Herrin aka Captain Ron

..... I love you so much mom you have no idea and what a blessing that made me so happy to hear the blessings! Mom a friend of mine baby died in the ward and they don't have any money so i am going to use some of that money for a little treat for there family just like some little candies because they don't have much money....I am giving a talk at there funeral so pray for me that i can do a good job!:) Love Elder Herrin aka Chaka

quail egg

the people who have lip stick on there face is because they lost the game and i won everytime hahaha thats why i don't have any lip stick!:)

July 27th .....So finally we have a set date for one investigator on august 8th and hopefully 3 or 4 more in august too that would be a huge miracle for us! I am with Elder Minas for another transfer so this should be good haha! and at the funeral I spoke about plan of salvation and just life on earth, it was nerve racking because I am not amazing at tagalog and there was some non members there but it went alright, they don't bury there dead underground they just put them in a tomb type thing above ground but there just made out of cement so its kinda creepy and gross but its whatever! sounds like you guys have had a fun week and glad to hear everyone is alright! I love you all and know that I am doing well hopefully I am not super skinny when I get back but I am no super picky anymore here haha!.... I am sending pics soon if It works love you tons mom and guess what I ate snake, it was a pretty big snake they caught and they cooked it and fed us haha it was pretty tasty actually!  anyways love you all very much sending pics soon, love Elder Herrin aka Tom Cruise.. a girl said I looked like him but I am pretty sure its because I am white hahaha!
