Hello!!! Welcome! Come on in! Kaon ta!
Um I'm still incredibly sick but it's fine because SO MANY MIRACLES.
Tatay
Jerry! So we received the missionary dream text this week from Tatay
Jerry. It said I'm going to get baptized I need your advice! (except it
was in Hiligaynon) Then he texted us a few days later and he was like
sisters you have to come over I've made my decision! So we went over!!
And he gained his testimony and his desire to be baptized because of
TITHING! Wow. Last week he asked us what our church did with our money
and we didn't think much of it we just answered his question with the
scriptures and explained that no one in the church gets paid for their
work or service. But apparently at the church he's been going to he's
been donating tons on money and they've basically been robbing him and
he finally asked them what they've been doing with all the money and no
one could answer him and the head pastor just told him that all the
money was gone. So that was pretty crazy. But now he's for sure getting
baptized! Miracles
Christine! This week
Christine had her baptism interview!! And she passed! Her progression
has been so wonderful to see. She's finally praying out loud on her own
and she wasn't shy at all with the district leader. I got to sit with
their family and Sunday and they're all so excited. Her baptism is this
Saturday :) Stay tuned.
Mario! So Mario is the
guy we met last week who is the cousin of a recent convert- Angel. He's
so receptive. We taught him this week the beginning of the Restoration
and at the end of the lesson we felt prompted to invite him to be
baptized and he accepted! Then we saw him and his friend later in the
week and Mario told his friend that he was "going to church with the
Mormons" (we're still working on correcting that) but still it was
wonderful! He told his friend to come to church with him.
Rodnell!
Rodnell is Tatay Lopez's nephew and when we went up to the mountain
this week to work Rodnell was there visiting for a few days. Tatay Lopez
asked us to share with him. Rodnell was baptized with his whole family
when he was 10 but the next year in 2001 they got lost from the church.
Since then he has been kind of looking for the truth again and has gone
to a lot of other churches but hasn't even felt like home again. Our
lesson with him was incredibly inspired like 100% guided by the spirit
it was so powerful. I felt prompted to share the story of the Prodigals
son and my language skills pulled through! AND THE NEXT DAY he came to
church with Tatay Lopez! He's from Bacolod and he told us that he's
going to go to church there every week from now on. It was such a
beautiful miracle.
“The
Standard of Truth has been erected; no unhallowed hand can stop the
work from progressing; … the truth of God will go forth boldly, nobly,
and independent, till it has penetrated every continent, visited every
clime, swept every country, and sounded in every ear, till the purposes
of God shall be accomplished, and the Great Jehovah shall say the work
is done.
Even through sickness I've seen so many miracles!! The work will go on! No unhallowed sickness can stop us! Haha
Stay Bakod.

| Ah I should probably explain the bottles picture. So we met the cutest old man ever- Nelson. And invited him to meet with us and he was so happy and excited that he gave us three enormous bottles of homemade vinegar!! We'll have to teach him the word of wisdom soon ;) |
