Elder Lewis and I had a good talk today during our companionship study. We really were able to resolve most of both of our concerns. I was upset because he is slow and we didn’t get to teach the second discussion today in the TE. I really want to excel at the teaching and it’s hard sometimes when he is not so fast at getting the language.

 

I’ve been reading, well starting today, that every day I’m going to read a chapter in my Tagalog Book of Mormon. I think that if I do that I’ll be able to get the language a lot faster[1].

Well things are generally good. Life goes on whether good or bad. I really want to have an awesome experience on this mission and I need to try harder to get it.

[1] I actually set a goal to read the entire Book of Mormon in Tagalog on my mission at some point. It may have been this point or maybe later. I found that it really did help.
