May Flys By

Luzon, Philippines



What a busy month May has been and it has been great to be able to travel and visit Districts that have never been visited before and provide them our basic training packages. The groups have not been large but they have had the initerest in what we have to share that makes it worhtwhile. We have been as far away as a five hour drive and as as close as an hour and a half drive. Members here are hungry for any assistance they can get and they can come and participate in all three presentations, if they desire.

You saw on the previous blog where we took a detour to visit Banaue and it was very impressive and worth the time it took for the drive over there.

We ended up with a little illness that kept us from teaching all our scheduled classes in Santiago but we did recover and the next day taught eight departing missionaries at the Angeles Mission home on this transfer. A transfer is a six week cycle where new missionaries arrive and departing missionaries leave for their homes after spending a couple days with us in the Career Workshop. What a special treat it is to be with them and feel of their strength and their testimonies as they are leaving the mission field. The picture is of the eight missionaries as they graduated with us.

We are blessed to have this assignment.

I am so glad you are fully recovered from the flu! You two are so resilient. But, I guess you have to be to do what you do! You always look so great in your photos and I love looking at them to see your sweet faces! Big hugs and kisses! Love, Melissa
