So Far .... I've Taught 1,062 Lessons

Helloo, How is everything going? Things here are going great and we are having a great week! I will be honest, not much happened new this week. Friday was our transfer day but nobody from my house transfered. Elder Scott(my roommate in New Washington) transfered here to Roxas zone about an hour from my house and I am excited about that. He is a good missionary. This week Elder Price and I had a full, uninterrupted week of work and it went great. This week I actually taught the most lessons in a week of my entire mission! I did the math last night and so far in my mission I have taught 1,062 lessons both to investigators, and less-active members! I thought that was a pretty cool. That is fun that the deer hunt was this weekend. I bet you guys had a blast. Macy does cook super good dutch oven. I wish I could eat some of that haha. My tooth is 100% and I just have a little sort of filler thing so my teeth will not move. it is going great. Elder Price's foot is 100% now too so we are tearing it up! To answer your question mom, Roxas City is really not that big, but lots of the people here live in what are called squatters, which is a tiny house with lots of people and just bamboo floors, walls, and the roof is made of "nipa" or "pawod." I don't know what that is in English, just look it up. So there are probably more people here than in St. George but the actual square mileage is less for sure. I do like it here a lot and there are a lot more people here so if a lesson falls through, we can easily contact people on the street. The people here seem more willing to listen than my last areas though so that is nice. Elder Price said his mom is Kelly Price and she has a Facebook and also a missionary mom. Elder Adams mom also is a missionary mom, her name is Monica Adams. They are both studs and we all get along awesome in our house. We all take turns cooking lunch and dinner for everyone. I will miss them when they transfer. We were at a members house this week and she was on facebook so I told her later that night to message you so I wrote your name and told her to. Did you get a message from a girl named Joy Eyao? She is a less active member. She is nice but we are trying to get her to church haha and reading. Things are going great here! I love you all! Halong ang akon mga bibes! Elder Garrett Christensen Barbara, what is up my girl? I hope you are loving soccer and having fun! I am having lots of fun here in The Philippines! What are you going to do for Halloween? Here I eat lots of "chicken adobo" "menudo" and chicken curry is good too. I also love "lumpia" Love you Britt! Bye Hey dad that is good that the deer hunt was fun even if it wasn't too successful. I am glad you at least had fun. Did you go to the "deer hole" or where else did you hunt? Is the hunt 5 or 9 days this year? Are there any new hunting rules or anything that the DWR has changed this year besides the lottery dedicated thing? That is too bad that Utah got beat by Cal. haha looks like they arent hanging well in the pac-12 huh? Things here are awesome and I am loving it here. Hopefully Dixie can handle Juan Diego. Did Juan Diego go 4A? Why is Dixie playing them? okay I love you dad! And miss you lots! Elder garrett Christensen
