Week 70 (Bacolod)
Maayong aga!
Sister Schenk and I gave our first training together about upholding the Lord's vision for our mission. Titled His Vision, Our Mission. It was lots of fun and I hope it inspires the missionaries to remember that we must do His work in His way, not our own way. It's something we can all apply. God's plan for us is perfect for us. Because He knows us and loves us. If we learn to turn our will over to Him, we will be much happier and become much better people.
Right after that, Sister Schenk went to Silay on exchanges and I got to work with Sister Martinez. The next day I went to Silay on exchanges with Sister Ferreria while Sister Schenk returned to our area w/ Sister Ferreria's companion. In Silay, I walked on a kinda sketch bridge (maybe you saw the pictures from when I went on in it in the day time last transfer), in the dark. But worth it for the family we taught on the other side. Grandma, uncles and aunts, and cousins. So cool to teach an extended family!
This week we met Jhudie. His wife is a less active member and she invited us to come teach him. He's very eager to learn about this church and about the gospel. He asked if he could have something to read about our church. He asked why we are called "Mormons" and we explained the true name of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. It seemed to set right with him. He came to church yesterday!
We ate at Los Trez Amigos to celebrate Sister Schenk's half way mark on her mission! Crazy how time flies isn't it?
Love you all!
