​No matter how great our time is of now, there will always be havoc. But, grace shall be as your day. Every storm ends. Every night becomes a day. Grace shall be, as our day.

​Monday:

​While we were having a lesson in an investigators house (Nanay Remedios and Nanay Rose) sisters 67 and 53

And our lesson was perfect cause it was The Plan of Salvation. We somehow comforted them.

The kid's name is Gab he was supposed to be our investigator but we let the Sister's teach him because the mother is a Single Mom and its more effective that way.​ On the far right you can see a woman with red shirt? Thats the kids mom.
Bro Bong is next to him and he had a great testimony and how the Gospel changed his life.
Next to him is Bro. Rafanan he is the baptizer for Bro Bong.
​Bro RAM is the one that'll baptize Gab.​

July 4th its America's independence and I wore my american tie that Mommy Ning gave to Dad.
The white buddies were so happy about it :D

​It was raining very hard and I had to wear flipflops walking in the street cause otherwise Id have wet weet sa church.
But, nasudlan ra gihapon tubig.


Only a few members came but still the Sacrament was administered.
Electricity was on and off and it was starting to flood.
After Sacrament the church organized rescue teams for people and the chapel as an evacuation area.
There were landslides and water rising around the area.​
​We still got wet and helped people. 

This is outside the office.​

​So we went home and had lunch. 
And oh yea I forgot to mention that on Saturday Night Elder Factor came to church and I was surprised why he was there with his stuffs.
I was thinking NOOO dont go home. Then on Sunday I talked to him and he said he was going to go home but President and him got an agreement of him transferring. He had companion problems. He always had. He wants a filipino companion now because he never had one. He's fine now tho.

So, this is the back of our apartment.​

​But we're safe.
Missionaries evacuated in our apartment. We got food from Sister Balledos.
She baked us muffins and provided soup to cook.
We had missionaries stranded in some areas and we needed to rescue them.
As we tried we couldnt cross from area to area because the waters are too deep for vehicles.
It was around 4pm so we waited for it to subside. Some missionaries were able to evacuate but some werent.
So around 10pm with President and his son Jonathan along with Elder Pandi, we were the rescue team for missionaries.
We were able to cross the roads and as an experienced Yolanda survivor, this was nothing. :D
We were able to extract missionaries and gladly nobody is hurt.

The apartment is very dirty now.​

and thats how we ended our week :D
