still in Bacolod as AP

Hello everyone this has been a good week out here. We moved our house again to a bigger one. It has two floors and we have many missionaries sleep here when needed. We had more exchanges this week. I worked in Murcia with Elder Saure who is my batch. We had a good fun day. His area is out in the nature. We had some good teachings. I helped him work on the things that they need to. It is nice to get out of the city for a day. Then the next day I worked with Elder Doane in my area. He is a way good missionary. He is an American and we enjoyed some Mcdonalds and some pizza. The good thing about Bacolod is we can get a lot of fast food and also we have department stores with everything in there. I helped him with how to begin teaching. He is very spiritual and helped me also to learn how to have the Holy Ghost more powerfully and to be humble to the spirit. The next day we had a training with the new missionaries and their trainers from last transfer. On Saturday we had a way good baptism of sister Jessica. It was a way good experience. I saw how the gospel really helped her to change her life and have true happiness. Her older sister is a way strong recent convert from June 8. Her sister spoke at the baptism. Also her mother was there which was way good. I had the opportunity to baptize sister Jessica. I could feel through the Holy Ghost that this work is true. I felt so happy and so good thinking how far she had come. When she was baptized she said that she felt so so good and was so happy. The gospel has literally saved this girl's life. I am so thankful for the opportunity I had to help Jessica know the truth. She is so thankful also. The next day we had a good missionary fireside after church where we trained our ward missionaries. Our ward mission leader is way good. We have a baptism next week also and hope to have them each week in August. It is transfer week which will be way busy. I am still Assistant though, and will stay in my area. I love that area so I am way excited. I know this church is true. When we apply the gospel it will change our lives. I know true happiness comes from living the gospel. I know Christ is our Savior and the restoration is true. I know the Book of Mormon is true. I love you all and hope you have a good week. Love Elder Mifflin
