BAGAMANOC | Day 211 |

NOVEMBER 12, 2014:
We're still here in Legazpi and it's my third day here. Today we had a Trainer and Trainees workshop. I'm really proud of Elder Bongolan because he is doing really well in his training. He's humble and willing to learn. We're united in doing our best in San Vicente. The schedule today was not as hectic as yesterday. My companion was so excited to meet his batchmates. Haha. I'm happy to see my wardmate again and I'm glad that she's doing fine.

As usual, the trainers and trainees are separated into two groups. The trainees are with Elder Yu (AP) and Elder Tevega (AP), while we trainers are with Elder Hatch (AP). There were some questions about experiences and obedience during these sessions like my experience before when I was a trainee. President Guanzon had an excellent workshop. He emphasizes the importance of inviting the investigators to be baptized in the first meeting. He taught all of us again especially the trainees to have a lot of faith while asking it. He also shows different ways of asking it.


We took a group photo of this batch of new missionaries with their own respective trainers at the back. President & Sister Guanzon and Elder & Sister Wilcox are also in it.

We went to Pacific Mall after the workshop and we ate dinner at the 1st Colonial Grill. I recommend a unique dessert for my companion. Sili (chili pepper) ice cream!! 😁 Haha. I tried it once before and it is a must-have in this restaurant.

It was fun and a good day overall. We'll be going back to Catanduanes tomorrow. 😊
