November 4th 2013 and NEW MISSIONARY FROM SHOW LOW AZ TO ARRIVE SOON!

nakuha mo na ba Nay?  (whatever that means)
Howdy! We had a great week. That being said, it is weeks like these that make me REALLY miss be out in the field. We were busy this week, but didn't get to teach much. I love teaching, driving isn't all that fulfilling, teaching people this Gospel is very fulfilling. So it was a great and busy week, but we didn't get to teach a lot. Anyway I am doing great and happy. How are all of you people? So on Tuesday we were on exchanges in Tigaon in Goa Zone and while we were out working I got what Race's mission calls, "The Swift and Mighties." My stomach hurt really bad, but luckily enough we have a van and Elder Dumaicos and I drove home real quick. I made it to the apartment but my stomach was really sick. After about 30 minutes of wondering to what extent I would be using the bathroom I decided we could still work. So we went out and finished work and then we had our little "evaluation" with the Zone Leaders at seven. After the evaluation was over, at about eight we were ready to go home, it's about an hour and a half drive back to Naga. Anyway I was NOT feeling well and so I had Elder Datu give me a blessing- the first one of my whole mission. That's well over a year! Anyway we made it home- I only had to stop once or twice because I thought I was going to throw up. Once we got home I sent straight to bed. That night was one of the worst nights of my life- I don't know how many times I woke up that night throwing up and having some "Swift and Mighties." But luckily it was a quick recovery. Wednesday night I felt good enough to work. Anyway thanks for your guys prayers for me. I feel very blessed to have not been sick very much at all so far in my mission. I had a small fever with it too. Anyways it went about as fast as it came. Also President and Sister Reeder went to the Mission President's Seminar in Manila this past week. I don't enjoy dropping off the mission president at the airport and him saying, "Call me if there is an emergency Elder Davis." But I do enjoy picking them up at the air port and saying, "We didn't have any major emergencies haha." Anyway they said they had a good time and they brought back a food I have not had in a very long time: Krispy Kreme Donuts! That was delicious! So in two weeks we get a new load of missionaries, and Elder Datu goes home! Guess who is coming to the Naga mission on that day? Sister Janae Coons. Now are you saying, "I don't her?" Well I don't know her either. BUT she is from SHOW LOW ARIZONA! Went to Blue Ridge High to be exact, I think. Anyway she is from SHERWOOD Drive in Pinetop! I told president we need to find her a great area and a great trainer haha. So Mom I imagine you are going to be the angel mother you are and see if you know any of her family. If you do get a hold of them tell them she is serving in the Best Mission in all the Land! We love how many missionaries we are getting- the only problem is we have no place to put them haha. We are opening so many new areas and finding so many new apartments that it is not even funny! I don't know how they get it ready in 6 weeks. This week we are super packed! Tomorrow we have Missionary Leadership Council, Wednesday we have Trainer and New Missionary Work Shop, and same thing on Thursday, Friday we will have exchanges in DAET, with a Zone Training, and so much more. Sorry the email is short. We are pretty busy right now. I hope everyone is great back home. I love you all so much! I am thankful for your prayers. Sorry this is short and sorry there is only one picture. I should have taken a picture while I was sick. Oh and Happy Halloween! Halloween here is crazy- EVERYONE goes to the cemetery and does something there. A lot of them just go there a drink. Anyway I hope you had a great Halloween and that Thanksgiving will be awesome and Christmas will be better. Did I mention that the cemeteries here are ABOVE GROUND? Anyway I love you all and sorry this is so short. We're busy. Elder Davis
