SO BUSY!



So I wish I had lots a of time, but I am running short on it because I am not leading the area (So stressful!!) So I have to update a lot of stuff!! Fun stuff... I know, right?


Anyways a lot has happened so I'll tell you really quick while I have time, so I got a new companion, he's a stud, walks fast, works hard! And all that good stuff!! So its been really fun, even though its so hard to lead the area, or in other words, take charge of everything, its been fun, I am learning a lot!! Its been a whole different world, but that's okay- I love it! The other day we were able to teach that young girl I was telling you guys about last week, and she is awesome, she just keeps telling us how she wants to go on a mission, that's really good!!  I have a lot to do! and I am sorry that I haven't written you all back yet!! I will next week, because it will be less busy!! 

Sana...!! haha 
Well, remember that the church IS true! It's so important for all of us keep moving forward! I know, even when I just want to sit down and take a break, I know I cant we have to move on!!

 Alright well I got things to do! Pray that  I never come a District leader or Zone leader because then I will never have any time!! 


Love ya all tons!!

Magandang araw!eo



Hey Every one! How goes it? 

So this last week has been really good! Like all of them of course! I had a chance to go on splits with District leader, because I am new and he has to see how I am doing and what not, it was super good, I had to lead all the lessons and everything so... that was kind of cool, we had 14 Lesson that day! It was good! Not that that is above the average for my area, but it was just way fun to lead all of the lessons! It was probably the most Tagalog I have spoken in one day in my whole mission ha, my brain hurt after that one. But it was way fun, we have some good investigators we've been blessed here in our area! 

The other day we visited a recent convert who has a daughter that has been taught all the lessons (before I got to the area) and she just never wanted be baptized, she has been content with her life the way it is, I guess you could say. She went to work somewhere close to Manila this last couple weeks, she returned and I could just tell something was different, she went to church there, which was kind of a shocker. So I after I heard that she was back home, I told here to come to church here! And she kinda smiled, like okay, so then I said, every Sunday!! I told her I would see her there, then we had to leave. She was there, as well as two other family members of hers that are investigators. It was so awesome! So then after church, she told my companion and I, that she talked to Sister Missionaries and youth members, while she was there for work. Then she told us after church she wants to serve a mission (She's 17 almost 18)!! And we are like, wait-what??... you need to get baptised first!! She doesn't want to get baptised yet, she thinks she needs some time, to change her life style, so we haven't taught her yet, but me and my comp were talking and we're thinking we can help her be ready in 1-2 months!! That will be really fun to teach her and help her work toward baptism and a MISSION- it'll be awesome!!

So that's just a little awesome story I wanted to share, I'll keep ya updated! But this Gospel is truly the best and for sure True!! It's so awesome to see first hand that it truly changes peoples lives for the best! I love being out here! At first I was homesick, but now thinking of leaving, even my area alone, makes me Mission sick! I am thankful for all the things that I am learning, thanks for all the support from everyone at home!! You're all so awesome!! So keep up the good work!! Love ya all tons!!! 
Love Elder Conrow

Magtiis Hanggang Wakas!!

Happy new year FAMILY'n'Friends! 

Well the new year is hear, people are setting goals to lose weight, become Millionaires, Find that Special some one and so on... you all know how it goes :) haha. But me, my goals are needless to say a little different than what goals would Normally be! And I don't even really know why! haha jk.

So how is everyone doing!! Hope all is well in Bitter Cold Utah, and Montana for My Pappy!
So this last week has been a really good one, at first it was a little hard, because we had to just sit in our apartment for the new years Because it is so CRAZY here holy cow I have never seen anything like it in my entire life! Just to add few things ha: everyone is drunk, Singing Karaoke! and shooting off huge and illegal fireworks tell like one in the morning! And drive like maniacs! at that is why we had to be home by six!! haha!! Just you can all have small idea of why it was so crazy.

I didn't get much sleep! Definitely different than quiet little Huntsville town!

So this Last week I have really noticed how Important it is to endure to the end, really, there are so many things we have to do to keep are selves active and participating in the church! I know that if we can all do our best in this life, even if it's so hard and seems like you can't do it, it will be so worth it in the next life! Everyday we need to read our scriptures and pray! Go the extra mile, as mom would say, (but not just while your cleaning haha). Endure the trials of this life! 

 I love you all!! And hope that you continue to endure to the end!! 

Thanks so much for the examplse you have been in my life!! I love you tons and I sure I miss you, this two years is Important... I can give families a chance to be together forever!! 
I know this work is true! I know that everyone needs this Gospel and that it can change lives!!

Mahal Ko Kayo!! So Talaga Magtiis Hanggang Wakas! Well Kita kits Mamaya Buwaya


Love,
