The countdown has begun...
And the work just gets better. I love the work here, even though it has
been difficult. We had a lot of lessons fall through, but we always tried to
remain joyful about our situation. And in the end we met some really interesting
people. I have learned the power of the gospel in the lives of others and I am
loving the opportunity to be a blessing to the people around me. We had some
really great lessons that helped us to understand the needs of the people and
also the power of the word of God in changing the people, to become what the
Lord desires for them.
It has been so weird to be preparing to leave the Philippines...but I have
really come to see the blessings that will continue to be with me, even after I
leave.
We had a wonderful time celebrating the 21st birthday of my companion and
also seeing some of the members from Tabaco. Sister Jayson and Sister Margie
came to visit me before I leave and they brought Alexa....the daughter of Sister
Jayson. She named her after me, and she is just the cutest little baby. I love
to see the impact that I have been able to leave on the people here and to feel
the love that the Lord has for them. The work is true, the gospel is real and
the blessings are forever arching upon our lives, if we remain faithful
:)
