It's More Fun in the Philippines:
- We are awaiting what many are saying to be the largest storm of the year tomorrow afternoon. So far the sky is mildly clear and there is almost no wind, so we will see what happens. Mostly we are just a little afraid the strong winds will ruin the home of one of the families we are teaching. It has been quite the process for them to earn enough money for the supplies required to build their house. We helped them finish it a few days ago and they are now living there. Many prayers will be sent their way if the winds get strong, and most likely we will be visiting them to help in any way possible.
- My companion, Elder Eldredge will now be headed up to Molino Cavite as the next Assistant to the President. Basically this means he will be in charge of helping all 175 missionaries in the entire mission and he has to take care of much of the planning as far as conferences and meetings. This is my third companion to become AP immediately after leaving me hehe. I'm super excited for him and I know he will do great.
WEEKLY CHALLENGE:
This past week I spent every day writing in my journal three things that I was grateful for. Some of these items were large and others small, but each one was specific (even including names often times). I felt a much greater love for those around me and I noticed more easily the blessings of the Lord. I invite you to spend a week writing, each night, three specific things you are grateful for. Don't forget to give thanks to the giver of these blessings in each one of your prayers.
