However, we in the paint fr and we coming back like the Cavs in that one series against the warriors (2016 pala iinisip ko).

Week 66 ~ The volcano is erupting... and I live a couple miles away

Image
Sooo to cut to the chase, we saw the Mayon volcano was raised to level 3, which means that it's probably going to erupt. Then we noticed smoke coming off the top, and then a lot more smoke; then when we woke up the next morning the volcano had lava coming out from the top. Luckily, it's just a small eruption right now, with the top of the lava dome slowly flowing down the side. However, if the magna pressure builds, then it will explode like a soda can does when you shake it. So we might have to evacuate. We wouldn't be in immediate danger, however, the ash fall could be dangerous to our health. Our Mission President told us to have seven days worth of clothes ready at all times, so that's been great. Anyways onto the spiritual stuff: Our friend Sister Mardy is progressing, She is a single mom, about age 53, and her kids are members. It was nice because at church I saw her talking to members and being assimilated in. The members here are so kind, talaga. We hope that sh...

Week 43 ~ "If the dog dies in 14 days, you have rabies" - Nurse in Cantanduanes

Image
Well to cut to the chase again, I got bit by a dog in the mountains. It wasn't my fault, he just ran up and was playing and bit me, haha. But I had to wait 5 days to get a rabies shot because there were no available shots. I got 2 injections in my arms and have to get 8 more. The nurse kindly enlightened me that if the dog dies within 14 days I'm cooked and got rabies . Pray for me FR!  But anyway this week was a good week. We had zone conference on a different island (Luzon) so we had to take a boat to get there. The rain was so strong cause there is a small typhoon down here right now and I definitely got a little seasick. Luckily, they were playing Shanghi Noon, a Jackie Chan film so my spirits were lifted. Zone con was good, the main takeaway that I got from it was we need to focus  on helping our friends more, and not giving up on them.  The work this week has been lots of teaching the Restoration of the Gospel, since we were gone all week there really hasn't be...

Week 50 ~ The Field is White and Ready to Harvest

Image
Hello Everyone! How's everyone doing? We are doing well here in San Andres. We had a good long week, at masaya ako na mag share sa inyong gabos (I'm happy to share to you).  Baptism of the Boco family: We had a baptism! It's been awhile in my mission since I've had one, not saying that mission success is based on baptisms cause it's not, and these aren't my baptisms but the Lord's baptism, but let me tell you; it's been refreshing to have some success in this area. Especially since it's been awhile since this area has had any success so it gives the members something to be proud of.   Their conversion:  My companion and I have worked really hard and we've helped revive the success and hype here for missionary work. Of course it's all through the Lord, but it's like I think Alma said that "I boast not of myself, but of the Lord". Because miracles have really been done here. One of these miracles is the BOCO family. When I first g...
