Week 50: ika tatlo bata ko.. ano?!

Maayong hapon mga guapo kag guapa!

Another short email once again! But just a super quick update. We were a trio with Sister Ingoldsby for a week and a half and it was fun to be a trio for Christmas and New Years! We thought that when Sister Ingoldsby's new companion arrived, it would be just Sister Gonzales and I once again, however the Zone Leader's called on Tuesday night and told us Sister Gonzales and I would be training! We were so shocked because it's rare that STL's train but so yeah we went to down to [the city] again! Lots of traveling. And we got my 3rd bata (child)! Actually I call her apo (grandchild) and Sister Gonzales calls her bata! Her name is Sister Coronel. 😊 She's from Korea! Joke lang, she's from [Philippines]... [and] she's a native Ilonggo speaker. It's been so much fun these past few days and I'm excited for this transfer and opportunity to train again! Yay 😄 

Keep on smiling everyone, life's good 😄
