All those who came to the baptism.<br />
<br />
These are the first two days of our week. There will be more coming but probably when I get home. Today we went to church in Carmen and then Jake has spent the afternoon trying to get these people to get their recommends. It has been very interesting. We wondered for a while if it was going to work. But it is. We have spent much time in Carmen Saturday and Sunday.<br />
<br />
We have tomorrow, Monday, and Tuesday to finish up things here in Bohol and Wednesday we all head to Cebu. The people will receive their endowments Wednesday afternoon and they will be sealed on Thursday.<br />
<br />
What a wonderful week to be able to spend with family.<br />
<br />

Sunday in Carmen. Bryce had all the kids his lap could hold. They loved him.<br />
<br />

In front of the Carmen church. They had about 70 people there. Jake opened up the area with no church and no members. A sister in R.S. bore her testimony and said how grateful she was that Elder Tolman had brought them the Gospel. It was a humbling experience for me to realize he was the first Elder there and now there are many.<br />
<br />
After sacrament meeting Jake loaded 3 sisters and several others to go to Pilar, where the Branch President could interview them for their recommend to go to the temple. That was all suppose to be done before he got there but somehow it didn't happen so Jake was very busy trying to get it all together.<br />
<br />
Then we had to take them all to Tagbilaran to meet with the stake president to get their recommends signed. The night before Jake was told by the stake executive secretary that it would be impossible, that there wasn't enough time to get them to the temple. But Jake called President Tanner and explained the situation and he called the stake president and made arrangements. We were ever so grateful. It took the rest of Sunday to get the recommends signed. Jake and Bryce had to ride in the very back of the truck with several children for over an hour on a very bad road. Bryce got car sick, it about did him in. but he recovered quickly.<br />
<br />
After the lengthy interviews in Tagbilaran they had to get the cards printed out so the deceased husbands could be sealed to their wives. That took a bit of doing as well. Then they were hungry because no one had eaten all day. We ran to our apartment and got what food we could find for them.<br />
<br />
I stayed home so Bryce could have my seat and after all that they had to be returned to Carmen an hour and 15 min. away. A son of one of the sisters had been wayward but was showing interest and the dear sister wanted Jake to teach him. So after the late night getting back they hiked back in to her home, up a mountain and Jake taught him by flashlight and candle light because they have no electricity. A very humbling experience.<br />
<br />

The next day, Monday we went to Inabunga for Jake to see some families there. On the way we passed this Catholic Cathedral in Calape where we lived our first year. They have just redone the outside and it is very beautiful. One of Norm's favorite buildings. We just wish it weren't Catholic but they certainly have a strong hold there.<br />

Sister Oncines and her daughter in the white. Jake baptized their family and after he got transferred her husband passed away. She has really struggled since then but they love Elder Tolman.<br />

The house she lived in when Jake taught her is nonexistent now and I think the church built this house for her. I looked in the door and could see nothing but a floor, not a bed, nothing but a floor. I know she cooks out back on a fire. This is a mansion compared to the house she did live in.<br />
<br />

Sister Oncines and her daughter. She has two more daughters but they were at school. When Jake was walking through the jungle to her home the little girl spotted Jake way off and started yelling to him and running to him. He asked her how she knew it was him and she said she could just tell. It was a very humbling experience. That far away Jake wasn't even sure it was her, but she knew Jake. She is 9 years old.<br />

Several families live close together and they got together and Jake taught them. He also gave them clothes that his family had put together. And he bought treats for after he taught them. It was a very happy time.<br />

Jake and his companion, Elder Fox, had these tarpaulins made at Christmas and gave to some families. This family keeps it up and dusts it and takes care of it. You can see the picture of the temple between them. It is very nice.<br />

The people in Carmen wanted Jake to come to a home evening so we dropped he and Bryce off in Carmen to find their own way home and Norm and I left. It ended up being quite the night for Jake. The home evening went fine but the husband of one of the sisters who had her recommend decided he didn't want her to go. He is not a member. Jake talked with him for an hour and a half trying to reason with him but he was very difficult. Finally he told Jake he would meet him the next afternoon.<br />
<br />
So Jake met him the next afternoon and he was a completely different man. Apologized for what he had said etc. and said his wife could go to the temple and he was on his way home to talk to her. We were so grateful.<br />

We took a quick picture to put in a Book of Mormon and give to a young man that Jake taught but was baptized after Jake left. We got him a shirt and tie so he could pass the sacrament. Jake got to meet with him and give him the scriptures.</div>

Those were two packed days. So Wednesday we get up early and catch the ferry to go to Cebu and the temple. We left from Tagbilaran which is a two hour ferry ride away. The people from Carmen left from Tubigan which is one hour ferry ride. We were to meet at the temple. On the ferry Jake gets a text on our phone saying that the man he had talked to for so long had now changed his mind again and when they went to pick up the sister he would not let her go. Jake was sick. He tried to text and call and see if he could work anything out about her coming later or coming the next day but nothing worked. Her sister was one of the other sisters getting sealed to her deceased husband so the group had really looked forward to this occasion together. But they had to leave her behind and we were very disappointed. <br />
<br />
But three sisters received their endowments and two sisters were sealed to their deceased husbands and another couple was sealed. It was a very spiritual experience. One of the daughters who lives in Cebu had made this sign.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQSCqS4bLqXUidubjK9t5Up-2xVrB2BGHkndy2YxjPOVxwSKPLzZXmBj_EI5gUh_qlk8Vq7OPYUl9u0yzFJAuGnsL7tVthNIK7yjNGs3fy0ZtBPJAkiubEtvHCMs-VmtyMI8DyaEPRxFc/s640/blogger-image--739528785.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQSCqS4bLqXUidubjK9t5Up-2xVrB2BGHkndy2YxjPOVxwSKPLzZXmBj_EI5gUh_qlk8Vq7OPYUl9u0yzFJAuGnsL7tVthNIK7yjNGs3fy0ZtBPJAkiubEtvHCMs-VmtyMI8DyaEPRxFc/s640/blogger-image--739528785.jpg" /></a><br />
I was able to sit with the sisters through the endowment session and it was a special experience to be able to help them through. When we got in the celestial room. I gave each of them a hug as they came through and they just melted in my arms and just sobbed and sobbed. This shy sister just looked me in the eyes and said "I love you sister". I will never forget this experience.<br />
<br />
I wish we could take pictures in the temple because another favorite memory is these three sisters sitting on the beautiful couch and Jake was kneeling in front of them teaching them with his Book of Mormon in hand. They were listening so intently and crying. A very tender experience.<br />
<br />
So they received their endowments on Wednesday afternoon after making the ferry trip over and going through the paper work etc. we made it through the 3:00 session. Before this they were told that the sisters couldn't be sealed to their deceased husbands because they need a marriage license. We were again struggling but we talked to the temple recorder and explained everything and he let them be sealed. They had the pedigree chart etc. Anyway, it did happen. Jake was Proxy for the one husband and his companion that was with him when they were taught also flew in for Thursday and he was proxy for the other husband. <br />
<br />
And a young daughter, 14 years old was sealed to her deceased father and her mother that was there. There are more children but they seal who they can at the time.<br />
<br />
It was very hard to say goodbye to these dear people. After we ate they had to catch a jeeney to go to the ferry and then catch a bus from there home. I do hope to be able to see them again.<br />

Eating at the temple with Sister Tanner. The families from Carmen brought their rice and cooked it there. Sister Tanner joined us for the Thursday session and it was wonderful to have her there.<br />

Friday we checked in the mission office and had to square away with our financial account and weigh our luggage etc. President and Sister Tanner were so wonderful to us. We will always treasure being able to serve under their leadership. They are hard working-inspired people.<br />

A good map of our mission. The green is Cebu East Mission. The fattest island is Bohol where we served. The long skinny one is Cebu. We always served on Bohol and we know that island quite well.<br />

Friday night we stayed in a hotel across from the airport. It was very nice. The airport is lit up across the street. Jake and Bryce took a few hours to go snorkeling before dark and have quite the story to tell. They didn't get back until after 11:00 p.m. and they were very happy to be back after their boat last two props and they were trying to get help by using the flashlights on their cell phones. </div>

I think this was the last airport. We had 4 of them. I was so thankful to be coming home with Jake and Bryce. That was quite the adventure as well. Jake speaking the language was a great help.<br />
<br />
Many of our loved ones met us at the airport. Afterwards we went to a church in Ogden and the family brought food and it was great to be together again.<br />
<br />
We still feel quite numb from all of the traveling and jet lag etc. and getting adjusted to things here.<br />
<br />
It is good to have running warm water and have a good shower, have a cold drink of water out of the tap and not be sticky sweaty all the time but we appreciate and treasure the experience that has been ours. It has been a privilege to serve.<br />
<br />
We appreciate so much all of you and your love and prayers. We couldn't have done it without you.</div>

Whenever we buy anything here they always tie it up. We are buying mattresses this day. When you buy groceries and you get something that is too big to fit in a sack they tie it up. Probably because people are on motorbikes and tricycles.<br />

Emma Smalley is one of my favorites. Her husband is building their home and they are in the process of doing the kitchen now. Norm baptized this sweet lady. She is a wonderful cook - amazing is a better word but she wanted to make cinnamon rolls. This is our attempt and they really did turn out good.<br />

We are stopped at a traffic light (very few of them) to turn a corner and very often there are beggars who tap on our window with their hand out. We try to find them something. Today, this poor guy was asleep. This is in between traffic going both ways.</div>

This is a bad picture of dear Aldren. He is the most amazing piano student I have taught. He is so talented. This is the family that I teach outside under a light with mosquitoes. He plays things once and he has it. He is playing for church. The best thing I did was get a keyboard for the family to have in their home so he can practice. <br />

A member of the ward bishopric passed away suddenly with a heart attack. They had a viewing in the recreation hall showing pictures etc. and then they turned their chairs around and had the service. Their viewings go for several nights in the home. Different groups come every night and they have talks and they feed them etc. He was a very prominent man and it was a huge funeral. He was in his 50's.<br />

I have never seen such a LONG escalator. I was about to the bottom. It is in a mall type store. We go to the top and then another escalator to the next floor to buy mattresses etc. Food is on the bottom floor and clothes etc. in between. We don't go here a lot. Parking is horrendous. Parking anywhere is horrendous. I definitely will not miss that part of the mission.<br />

Dear Brother and Sister Lanzaderas. We started visiting them a year ago last January. They are the dearest people. He is the man that smoked for 61 years. He has quit many times but not really. But he did quit this time and hasn't smoked since a year ago last February. We went to the temple with them last August. He LOVES Norm. Calls him his brother and says with tears, You changed my life. <br />
<br />
I have taught two of their grandchildren to play the piano. They live right by each other. Today was my last day to teach and they had a party for us. The four students I have taught came besides friends and they sang a song for us and they gave us presents and had cooked food. It was a very emotional experience for me. Sister Landaderas gave me her coin collection. I think it was one of her most prized possessions. I didn't want to take it at all. Her grandchildren should have it but she kept saying it was for me. They are in their 70's. So hard to say goodbye.<br />

This is their son Ondoy and his wife Arlene and two girls. Arlene was baptized last April. She is more active than Ondoy. We are hoping they will make it to the temple before President Tanner goes home. He is good friends with them as well.<br />

I taught the two girls behind me and the two boys. The girl on the far left is their sister who is in college. They are a marvelous family. And dear Sister Lanzaderas is in front. The sweetest sister ever.<br />

Then we went to see Sister Segovia. She is the sister that Elder Teh talked about in April 2014 conference.<br />

To quote: "Last January my sweetheart, Grace, and I received an assignment to visit the members in the Philippines who were devastated by a major earthquake and a super typhoon."<br />
<br />
At the end of his talk he says: "May I conclude with the story of a 73-year old widow whom we met during our trip to the Philippines: "When the earthquake struck the island of Bohol, the home that she and her late husband had worked so hard to build crumbled to the ground, killing her daughter and grandson. Now alone, she needs to work to support herself. She has started taking in laundry (which she does by hand) and has to go up and down a good-sized hill several times a day to fetch water. When we visited her she was still living in a tent.<br />
<br />
These are her words: Elder, I accept everything that the Lord has asked me to pass through. I have no hard feelings. I treasure my temple recommend and keep it under my pillow. Please know that I pay a full tithing on my meager income from doing laundry. No matter what happens, I will always pay tithing."<br />

This week they are going to buy her 10 chickens. This is her new way to bring in income. But she said it is too hot in the middle of the day. Don't know what they will do about that. I am not sure this project is going to work but I hope it does. She also has to pay 100 pesos to rent the ground and she doesn't have anything. Not sure how sue will handle that either. We helped her out a little.</div>

That is quite the slippery hill she goes up and down. I noticed an older boy there and she said that was her grandson. She said he is a member but he doesn't always go to church. And then she said, I can't say anything because I wouldn't be worthy to take the sacrament.<br />
<br />
Very hard to say goodbye.<br />

Julie and Katie planned a trip to come see us. Because they were flying standby I wasn't sure when they would arrive so when I got an email entitled "Surprise" I immediately thought that meant they were on their way even a little early. I was totally shocked when I opened it up and saw this picture! I didn't squeal, I sat there stunned thinking, "That is Marie, how could that be?" I looked and looked wondering if my eyes were playing tricks. What a beautiful sight! I will love this picture forever!!!</div>

My next favorite picture! How blessed we were!!!! It is a long flight and I so appreciate them being able to come. They flew in to Tagbilaran. It was a very rainy Sunday afternoon. We quickly drove to a sacrament meeting close by and got in on about half or maybe more.</div>

I am so grateful to be able to share the Philippines with family. This is a beautiful country and we will always treasure the experience.<br />
<br />
I am so anxious to come home but it is getting more and more difficult to leave. It has been a very special experience.<br />

We started off the week by taking these darling girls to the hospital about 11 at night. The dear sister on the left had an allergic reaction to something and she got into trouble. We took her to the hospital and they gave her some medicine and she had to stay there for 2 hours. We left them and came home and rested on top of the bed for an hour and went back at 1:30 a.m. to gather them up and take them home. They are darling sisters and we love them so much. We got home about 2:30 a.m.</div>

President and Sister Tanner were on our island doing interviews so we all met at the ferry to go to Cebu - their home for a Sr. Couple Retreat. It was a wonderful time. We went over Wednesday about noon but we didn't get here until night as we had to do some grocery shopping and the traffic was terrible. Got there quite late and had supper that the Mc Netts, office couple, had fixed for us. The next day we had meetings all day at their home. It is so good to be together and discuss all that is going on in our areas and get advice on different situations. We could spend hours together. Brother and Sister Goodson from Salt Lake came and explained a program they have going to make solid brick to make CR's and they are involving the Filipinos for employment. I think he was the first mission president in Cebu back in the 1960's and he has spent his life helping these dear people.</div>

We went out to eat that night at BoRussia. A german place that is very elegant but it is quite a drive and we got stuck in traffic. It ended up being a very late night and we had to get up at 3:30 the next morning to catch a ferry to take us to another island, Camotes.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
President Tanner couldn't go but that doesn't stop Sister Tanner. She loaded us in the van at 4:00 a.m. and we were off. The ferry left at 5:30 and it took 2 hours to get to Comotes. Everything takes so much time.</div>

We went to another beach and the water was wonderful. Elder and Sister Bell went snorkeling and Norm and Elder and Sister Bock swam around. They loved it and I loved it just as much watching them with Sister Tanner and Elder and Sister McNett.</div>

Then we met the Elders on Camotes and we had a hamburger and a chocolate milk shake which was delicious. Don't get them much here but it took forever. They are set up for like one person and there were 9 of us. Loved being with the Elders</div>

By now we are really running short of time and we had to fly back to the pier for our 2 hour ferry ride home. Sister Tanner was driving crazy fast over the bumpiest roads. I was in the very back of the van and we were hitting the roof of the van and knocking each other. I got laughing so hard I could hardly stand it (good thing I was sitting). We stopped and had prayer. It was some experience but we made it. Got home very late and left early the next morning for the ferry to come home. Of course Sister Tanner was at the wheel again. </div>

While I was in Cebu I got a text message from Julie saying the flights were looking full so she and Katie were leaving a day early. I am so hopeful all goes well for them. Not sure what day or time they will get here but we are excited. It could be even tomorrow.</div>

This is my loaf of dilly bread I am taking to a good friend. I put it in the oven just fine but it grew in the oven and got caught on the top burner. I had no choice but to drag it out which took the top off. I set the top back on, lowered the rack and cooked it a little longer and this is the finished product. I have no idea how it tasted. I just took it and told her my oven didn't cooperate.<br />

The dear sister in the gray is from California. She has been here 8 days and is so homesick she just wants to go home. She can't sleep or eat and she is totally miserable. All of these missionaries took the afternoon off and they all piled in our truck and we took them to the beach so they could have some fun and get away from the stress.<br />

They ended with a meeting. All the missionaries told about the adjustments they had when they first got into the field. And they all bore their testimonies and included how much they love their mission. It was really a spiritual meeting. I was really impressed with the missionaries. The next day I took her a sack of American food: loaf of home made bread, can of chicken, tuna, swiss mix, etc.<br />

Today we went back to Calape to church. That is where we spent our first year. They asked me to play the keyboard again and it was so fun to be able to do that. Everyone of these people are very dear to us.<br />

This dear sister bore her testimony and said that someone had sponsored her so she could work in the temple and she is so grateful. I felt so thankful inside that we were able to help with that. She is 75 years old. Thank you family for making that possible.<br />
<br />
President and Sister Tanner cane and had dinner with us today. It is a blessing to have them in our home and we are so blessed to be able to serve with them. While he was here he got a phone call from Sister Pulotu. She said she had fasted and prayed and got her answer she should go home. We are so disappointed. We still have a couple more days to talk to her. <br />
<br />
Love you all! 5 more Sundays and we will be in the 8th ward. It will be hard to leave these dear people.

And here we are at the port. We had 14 missionaries leaving for Cebu. We started at 4:15 a.m. to get them all gathered with their luggage. That was after gathering some of them the night before and we got home at 12:45. It was a short night. And it is the end of the month and none of them have money so we are feeding along the way. But they are so fun and so appreciative.</div>

Loon had their first Self Reliance graduation. These people took the course in Starting My Job. It is so interesting. The dear sister by me is in her 70's and she is going to raise chickens. Her name is Sister Segovia and she is the sister they talked about in conference when she lost her home in the earthquake. I do love these people.<br />

We had 3 baptisms on Saturday. We started with Carmen. Left home at 5:45 to pick up Elders at 7. Got there only to find they didn't have water so we waited for 45 minutes for them to get ready. We made it by 9 but were the first ones there and they didn't get started until 10:00.</div>

The dear sister was the one being baptized. She read the articles of faith card and said she wanted to learn more - she felt it was right. They baptized her in a month. These are her children. The boy in the pinkish pants is 13 and the girl is 11. The Mother is 30. None of the children are baptized. I think they are teaching the girl. They hope to teach the father.</div>

After Carmen we rushed over to Jagna at 1:00 for another baptism. We got there just in time to see 3 people there and we waited an hour for it to start. One brother was baptized. Another baptism where he knew it was true immediately. The tall man in the back is from Logan Utah. He is a lawyer and is now teaching school in Hong Kong. He is doing a summer project in Bohol and is here for a week making arrangements to bring 30 students over. He was a delight. He is married and has 4 children. He has lived in Hong Kong for 9 years.<br />

After Jagna we went to Valencia for more baptisms. 6 were baptized here. It was an hour late starting as well. A Mother and her 3 children were baptized and 2 extras. <br />
<br />
Today, Sunday, January 24th has been quite a special day for us. We got up at 3:30 so Kimmie could face time Grandma Halladay's viewing and funeral. We are so grateful for modern technology which allowed us to be part of that. We left right after that to gather a sister missionary in Jagna and we needed to pick her up at 8:00. It has been a busy day but we feel so blessed to have a wonderful family and so blessed to be able to serve here. Truly the Lord is blessing us!!!!<br />

A Baptism in Dauis - This little girl was baptized by her father who was inactive. They have 6 children who are so darling. Their home is so humble. Couldn't see any place to eat. Wish it weren't rude to take pictures but it is unbelievable.<br />

Baptism in Jagna. The son was baptized and now their whole family is baptized. We picked them up in our truck and they live a good half hour away from the church on the bumpiest road. So hard for them to get anywhere.<br />
<br />
These baptisms were just this week and we couldn't get to all of them. <br />

Norm got a little camera happy but this is my kitchen. I am actually quite tired of cooking here but it doesn't look too bad. A little banana bread and cookies sitting on top of the stove.. Just get out the old silver bowl and go for it.<br />

Norm at work again! This guy gives a hair cut in 15 min. max. Probably more like 10. He charges less than $4. 175 pesos. You get a hair wash and a shoulder massage by a girl first. Great place!</div>

Take a look at this salad which is rare to come by over here. This place is about a half hour away from us and they have delicious food. We have just discovered it and I hope to go there enough to try everything on the menu. I am not much on Filipino food but we eat very well.</div>

Thanks to the family's generous Christmas contributions we were able to put together 21 grocery bags full and deliver them to 21 families in Carmen. We talked with the group leader and he suggested we put in rice, sardines, corned beef, noodles, milo (chocolate milk mix) powdered juice, sugar and a bar of soap.<br />
<br />
Here we are ready to go. We picked up the group leader and his wife in Carmen and he said the 4 Elders wanted to go with us to deliver besides he and his wife. So 4 fit in the back and I wondered where the other two would fit in with the groceries but they did.<br />

This is our New Year's party. Once a year the missionaries are allowed to watch a disney movie. We watched "Inside Out". Norm and I furnished pizza and pop and Kimmie's jelly beans. The Panglao Elders called to see if they could ride with us. This over 300 lbs. elder was one of them and there were 4 to fit in our back seat.<br />

The next elder is the 4th one standing. Those two filled the seat. The next elder is the 2nd one over, barely room to squeeze him in and the 4th elder was smaller and he sat on top or rather laid. They drove a half hour that way.<br />
<br />
On the return trip I traded the larger elder - he sat in front and I took a back seat with the rest of the elders. That was doable.<br />

The girl on the right, Judea, and the boy in the yellow shirt were baptized last September but never confirmed. They live a ways away from the church. They live in Dauis - I think Jake taught them some and then went home and his companion, Elder Santos, baptized them and then he was transferred. We were able to pick them up on Sunday and they were both confirmed.<br />

We just went to town and bought him a shirt and a couple ties. Somewhere his little brother found a shirt. I will never forget the sweet look in Jaharie's eyes before we left when he looked at me and said in such a sweet tender voice "Thank you so very much". And he shook my hand. We gave them a little money to make sure they could get a ride to church next Sunday. We won't be able to be there.<br />

We started off the week with this motorcycle running into us. We were on our way to a district meeting in Jagna an hour and a half away. We were stopped in the road for something and this guy was going fast I guess anyway he ran right into us. We spent the next 2 hours at the police station. What a drag. We were blessed that no one was hurt. The bike was caught under our truck and they had a hard time getting it out. He and his wife were on the bike. He was the nicest man and we found out he lives here in Dauis as well. We will pay for our damages and he for his. It kind of messed up our bumper.</div>

And here we have the police station. I sat in front in the truck for a LONG time. So we didn't make it to the district meeting. We went anyway to deliver some things and got to the meeting house and no one was there. It was that kind of day. They were meeting together with another district. We finally caught up with them after everything was over.<br />

We have been to 5 different Christmas parties. They love to party. Each party lasts at least 4-5 hours. Here they are dancing on the stage and everyone is trying to follow them. I thought they had cute decorations. They dance a lot, sing, play a lot of games, eat and start all over again. It just goes on and on and they are so uninhibited. They just love being together.<br />

Just having a good time! We can never eat the food. It is grisly pork that is impossible to chew and swallow. There is always rice but one can only do so much rice. There are other things we nibble on but always glad to get home and have a piece of toast maybe even with some peanut butter.<br />

This is Elder Schnoor from Canada.The leader and everyone was blinded folded. They had to go up and around a chair and back and pick up another person by bumping into them. It was really quite fun.<br />

Thought I should share our Christmas decorations. I tried to make something green on the bottom to resemble a tree. The green boughs are wrapped on a pillow. Thanks to Leanna and Julie they brought presents which is against the rules but they did it anyway.<br />

This is my Christmas present from Norm - he loves to draw. We didn't spend a lot of time shopping and decorating and making candy and singing carols and all of the fun Christmas traditions. I will be happy next year to sit on the couch around the Christmas lights watching a Christmas movie. But we did have a very nice Christmas. We visited several families and had a wonderful Christmas dinner with our senior couple on the island, Elder and Sister Bell. She is a wonderful cook and it is very nice to visit and spend some time with Americans and compare notes of how we are handling life as missionaries in Bohol.<br />

We had a baptism from Carmen at Pilar. The three in front of the door were baptized. The sister in white is still investigating. We had 14 in our truck. 6 missionaries in the very back. 6 investigators and members in the back seat and the two of us. It took some time gathering everyone up and it was an hour and a half away. We furnished the treats and then made the return trip home.<br />

When we went to church this morning these cute little goats were running ahead of us. The church is on the left.<br />
<br />
That is another week in the life of living in Bohol. It is cooling down a bit which is so good but it is still plenty hot.<br />
<br />
Hope you all had a very special Christmas day and have a very special Christmas holiday. Love you all!<br />

We attended a funeral in Carmen. A member was shot, a man who was 60, by a couple men on a motorcycle. That is all the detail they know. He had been baptized a few months. His wife is so sweet. The body is in the home for days. People just come and visit etc. The funeral was in their humble home. We were outside because of space but couldn't understand anything anyway. Then they walk to the cemetery which is hot and long. Maybe two or three miles.</div>

They have the prettiest sunsets here. And they also have the prettiest clouds in the day. They are sort of white white against the blue sky. But last week we had the results of a typhoon that was close by and it rained like no other. NEVER have we seen so much rain here. I think for 2 days it really rained. So thankful we didn't get the typhoon.<br />

We went visiting with the Elders. The parents of this family both work. The father is very much Catholic but the Mother is a member. She can't go to church because she is working. We gave them money so they could get a bus ride to church but they didn't go. They had to go somewhere else but will go next week we hope. We love these Elders. The one on the left is Elder Hall from Idaho and the other is Elder Schnoor from Canada.Lettyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00242918962211833835noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-714692273462355198.post-10528598735850258592015-12-10T15:29:00.001-08:002015-12-11T17:52:29.367-08:00Family on mission<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

The sisters came home early one afternoon and said their door was open and someone had broken in. Norm bought a new doorknob and lock but it was too big for the hole. So back we went and bought a file and he filed and filed for some time to get the thing to fit. They don't have very many convenient tools.<br />

We are on our way on the tricycle to go to the ferry that takes us to Cebu to the airport to get OUR GIRLS!! Sister Tanner met us and we did some shopping at a fantastic new mall they have just opened. Like 5 stories. It is huge and absolutely gorgeous. Certainly doesn't look like it belongs in the Philipines.<br />

We stopped at Isla Hayahay and ate which was yummy and very beautiful on the ocean.<br />

On our way home we stopped at a firefly river run. It was so fun. The girls had a kyiac and we had one and we each had our own guide in another one.<br />

Before we started we each had our own coconut juice. We didn't like it very much but they said it was good for you. I was very obedient and drank the whole thing which wasn't very smart when you are leaving on extended kyiac ride. I really got in to trouble and had to return early - sorry Norm.<br />

Of course I am in a skirt and came back absolutely drenched. Could wring the water out of my skirt.<br />

Here are the girls taking off hoping to catch the sunset. The fireflies were amazing. They cover certain trees - they were on one big tree and it had hundreds of them. We were just as amazed at the Plankton fish that lit up in the water. When you paddle the fish would light up. If you even put your hand in the water the fish would light up. Julie and Leanna paddled hard and it was like a stream of light. The timing was perfect because there was no moon and they really lit up. Julie was sitting in front and got just as drenched as I did. We had a great time.<br />

This family is hoping to go to the temple with Elder Tolman when he comes in March. She was sick and didn't make it to church with the family but the Dad was there. Very humble, sweet people in very humble circumstances.<br />

Tuesday morning we got up early and went to the Bee Farm and had a delicious breakfast. Leanna had read on line that they had mango pancakes which sounded so good. It is not mango season right now so they just had mango syrup I think but they had delicious eggs and ham and waffles instead of pancakes. It was a good choice</div>

From there we went to Garcia and met Bill and Emma. That was a quick trip. Absolutely love those dear people. Norm baptized Emma and hopes to Baptize Bill before we leave. They had company so our visit was short. We went back to the LoBoc river cruise. All you can eat buffet on the water.</div>

We saw this mango tree on the water. The mangos are wrapped in paper and stapled. I am always amazed at how they do this. Never seen it done but it is always done.<br />
<br />
There were lots of boys swinging from trees and dropping in the water. Didn't get a picture of that.<br />

Wednesday night was the Christmas devotional at the church by the mission office. All the missionaries gathered to watch the First Presidency Christmas message. Elder Borrego and Elder Santos - two of our favorite missionaries were there. Elder Santos was Jake's last companion and Elder Borrego was a very close friend of Elder Tolman's. They worked together quite a bit.<br />

This time came all too soon. We had a wonderful week. They mostly entertained us instead of us entertaining them. With all of our adventures Norm was busy handing out cards and doing missionary work. Even at the waterfall he talked to two more who were familiar with the church and he has their names. He is a wonderful missionary.<br />

Lots of missionaries! It was a real deal to get all of them on buses afterwards and to the ferry and get tickets etc. And they all had to catch rides when we got off the ferry which was about 8:45. It isn't easy to get around here but they make it work.<br />
<br />
It has been a wonderful week! We are so very blessed! Thank you all for your prayers in our behalf. This is a great experience and we hope to work hard and serve faithfully for 3 more months and accomplish all we can before we return.<br />

I have mentioned before they celebrate Christmas for the "Ber" months. This was along side the road. It was so pretty. We have been listening to Santa Claus is Coming to Town for two months or maybe three.<br />

Last week was our Stake Conference. Very few cars are in the parking lot but you see lots of tricycles delivering. It was a wonderful conference. Norm and I were asked to share our testimonies during the Saturday night meeting. <br />

The Elders asked if I would cook a dinner for them to celebrate Thanksgiving. It took me all day. There were 14 missionaries. Didn't have room to feed them in our apartment so we had to load it all to the church 15 minutes away.<br />

I got up early and made 5 dozen rolls, put chicken in the crock pot, had rice, corn salad (Yep, new recipe, open a can of corn and put in mayonnaise, green onion, tomato and basil) did cooked carrots and a cabbage salad. Made fruit salad and cookies for dessert. We stuffed them. Two other Elders were late coming - Elder Caro and Elder Cabrero<br />

This is his 2nd plate full. They ate a lot of food. They ate 3 rice cookers full of rice. We loaded up everything and brought it home to wash. It was an all day project but I like those kind of days. These two are our district leaders. Elder Nelson lives in Pleasant Grove and will be going home the end of December. He was an AP but wanted to finish in the field. Good Elders!!!!<br />

We started off Monday bringing some Elders in to the Doctor. It was a day of waiting and waiting. We took them to lunch in between things, and then back to Duraro which is an hour and a half drive. The next day we did a repeat as the Elder needed to have an ultra sound. They actually took a bus in and we met them at 8:30 because the clinic opened at 8:00. Couldn't believe when we got there they said the doctor wouldn't be in until 1130. ANOTHER wait. So at 11:45 the ultra sound is done but they can't get the results until after lunch. 1:00 we go back and get the results but have to talk to the doctor and he won't be in until 2:30. Then it was another ride back to Duraro. The whole thing ended up with they couldn't find anything wrong with him. Guess that was good to know. Just live with the pain.<br />

A CSP - community service project. 4 elders asked for a ride and there ended up being 10 elders and 4 sisters. I don't know what they were thinking or just not thinking. Norm just packed them in the back and drove for a half hour. The other 4 were in the back seat.</div>

This week I started teaching a brother and 3 sisters piano lessons. They are so excited. The lighting in the house was terrible so they put the keyboard on a piece of wood outside which had a brighter light and then they gathered around. Cute brothers and sisters in the background. There are 8 in the family.<br />

Elder Halladay loves to treat the kids with suckers. Wish the picture weren't so dark.<br />
<br />
We don't have a picture but on Friday the Elders asked us to teach with them. The sister was a member but hadn't been to church in 4 years. Her husband is a member as well but hasn't been to church and the Elders said he was an addict. They had never met him because he was always working.<br />
<br />
On our way there it started pouring - so by the time we got there we had nice mud to go through. Such very modest, poor circumstances. Wish it weren't rude to take pictures. We were introducing and visiting etc. and to our surprise, the husband walks in. Because of the rain he had come home from work early. I worried when I saw him with the red earring in his ear etc. But when he smiled I could see a tenderness and his wife was really a sweet lady. <br />
<br />
So the missionaries taught and the husband really started talking a lot. Of course we couldn't' understand a word but the Elders told us later that he had had a dream the night before of a white building and he thought it was the church and was impressed he should start going back to church.<br />
<br />
I put it all together in my mind, it rained so he came home from work, we were there, he had had a dream, and he told the Elders they would come to church on Sunday.<br />
<br />
The Elders texted us this afternoon and they were all in church! We have an appointment to go back and visit this week. <br />
<br />
Today we have been to Carmen and to Sagbayan to church. A long time to sit and not understand very much. As I was leaving the Sagbayan church, they meet in the Elders apartment I decided to make use of their CR (comfort room or better known as bathroom). The one that is there for the church didn't have a handle to flush the toilet and no water in a bucket and when you tried to turn the water on in the sink the handle came off. No water there either.<br />
<br />
So I decided to go upstairs to the CR the Elders use. There was no door knob, just a hole so I just went in and closed the door only to find out that when you close it, it locks. There was some metal thing in the wood and there was NO getting it unlocked. So there I was upstairs looked in this cruddy CR. I tried everything to no avail and ended up pounding and screaming. It worked - obviously - I am now home thank goodness.<br />
<br />
Hope you are all having a good week.

This week was transfer week. A very busy week for us. We have a BIG area to cover. We didn't know until they arrived that we had 4 Elders going to the same apartment where 2 Elders were and there were only 2 beds, 2 desks, 2 fans. We had 5 sisters staying where there were 2. We had a little bit of heads up on that one. It takes an hour to get to their apartment so we spend a lot of time on the road.<br />
<br />
The day started by leaving at 4:30 a.m. to pick up missionaries and take them to the port to go to Cebu. We spent 15 hours driving in the truck that day.<br />
<br />
And in the middle of it all, like 1:00 p.m. we get a call that the zone leaders had been in a BAD accident and totaled their van. It was all so bad. It was a mechanical failure on the van. The wheels or steering wheel I am not sure which locked and they took out an electric pole which went over the top of the van and they went down a very steep embankment that was unreal and did not roll which was a total miracle. There were 4 Elders. One was wearing a seat belt and it was his first day in the field. It was truly a miracle they were all unharmed but for a few cuts and bruises.</div>

These are two of the Elders that were being delivered to their apartment They were about 5 minutes away when they crashed. The Elder on the right is the new Elder and he said he would not be writing home to tell his parents about it.</div>

This is the poor van. They said if they hadn't hit the pole square in the middle it would have been very bad for the Elders in the front. Truly it was a miracle.</div>

Brother and Sister Smalley, Norm baptized her, the first Sister on the left, last weekend. Brother Smalley is working on getting back in to the church. He wants Norm to baptize him before we go home. They had 5 sisters missionaries and us over to eat. He barbecued ribs which were absolutely delicious and barbecued chicken as well. Then he made apple pie with vanilla ice cream. It was all so good. We can't buy vanilla ice cream here but he did and since then Norm found some. We are eating out on their patio. They are so kind and gracious.<br />

Brother Smalley and Norm. He absolutely loves Norm and said he is the reason we are here. He talks non stop and has something to say about EVERYTHING!!!! Very likable man. He said if we need help with anything to just give him a call and he will be right there. He actually has a home in California. He has lived here for 5 years and has an adorable wife. They are both wonderful cooks.<br />

We went to Carmen to church today. It takes about an hour 15 min. to get there. This is Jake's territory and I just love being there. I took a keyboard and played for them. They were quite intrigued by it all. <br />
<br />
When we got up this morning we had no power so it was a cold shower morning and a go "as is" hair do. The power was on when we got home but has gone off and on a couple times tonight which means darkness and no air con or fan. Very noticeable and very much missed.<br />
<br />
Back to Carmen. It looks like, if we understood them right, there are 3 couples and a sister in Carmen who are planning on going to the temple in March when Jake comes to pick us up. I so hope that all works out. One brother named Sonny, Jake picked he and his wife and family up his last Sunday he was here, and we took them to church, Sonny has been going ever since and he is planning on going to the temple.<br />
<br />
I tried to speak to him today and said hello from Elder Tolman. He smiled and said so humbly, "I miss Elder Tolman." A very tender moment for me. </div>

We met for 2 days this week with the Senior couples. Starting at left: Elder and Sister McNeff from Coalville. They just arrived two weeks ago and will be working in the office. Next are the Halladays, 4 months left. President and Sister Tanner who are absolutely amazing. I could write chapters on them - truly a privilege to serve with them. Elder and Sister Bell from Hooper. They are much younger than us - have been here 2 months. They took our place in Calape and they are amazing missionaries. Very capable and very hard working people and they signed up for two years. The last couple are the Bocks and they are from Australia. They are serving for 2 years - been here 6 months and thy are on the Island of Cebu working in Bogo. Wonderful people. It was a privilege to be with all of them.</div>

They also have a swimming pool which Norm loves. He swims night and morning and says the water is perfect.Friday we did some sight seeing with the new couples. Saw chocolate hills, went to Mantacida and saw the houses we spent so long traveling back and forth and we cruised the Loboc river and had all you can eat smorgasbord - food wasn't all that good but we ate anyway. Two very nice days. Just a strength to be with other adults that speak English.<br />

Saturday we went toValencia and Norm baptized Sister Emma Smalley. I LOVE HER! She is an angel. We met her husband Bill in the mall several months ago and chatted with him. He was excommunicated about 25 years ago and she is devout Catholic. He gave us his phone number. He is building his home which really interested Norm. Well, we lost his phone number and never did see him. We finally asked the Sisters in Valencia if they had met a white man etc. and they said we are teaching her right now. We were so thrilled. They set up a time we could all go together and it has been instant friendship. He is working his way back and should be baptized before we leave we hope. They asked Norm to baptize and confirm Dear Sister Emma.<br />

Outside the church is a mango tree that still has papers on it. They are up very high and there are a lot of papers on the mangos. It amazes me how they get them on and how they get them off.<br />

Meetings in Balilihan. They had 22 there today. They told us today would probably be their last meeting because they aren't progressing.

There was a typhoon over the weekend and our area got some bad wind. The ferry didn't run either Saturday or Sunday and we were very nervous if we would be able to go on Monday. We were scheduled to go on the 7:05 Ocean Jet ferry. When we got to the port they said that ferry had been canceled and the next one to go out was 8:30. Norm immediately went to another line and was lucky enough to get us tickets on the Super Cat 2 Go at 6:30. It is newer and 15 minutes faster. We were so blessed. We barely made it. The water was rough to start out with and I was just praying for a safe ride. I rode with my eyes closed and prayed the whole time and I am happy to say the water calmed and the ride was ok. When we got to the pier in Cebu people were just stacked in there like crazy. I asked what was going on and they said the ferry had been canceled. I think Norm and I were blessed to make it over.<br />
<br />
Sister Tanner picked us up and we did grocery shopping and made food for everyone etc. About 4 in the afternoon we get a call from our loved ones saying they missed their flight out of Hong Kong by 10 minutes. So the airlines put them up and the next flight out was 8 a.m. the next morning. We were very sad. So they actually didn't get to Cebu until Tuesday afternoon about 1:00. We were so happy to finally be together and we had a great week.<br />

Sister Tanner shuttling us around in the van she arranged for so there would be room for everyone at the airport. They are amazingly wonderful people. So busy and just take care of everyone. Such a great experience to be with them. They showed us all a good time. Sister Tanner definitely gets around very well.<br />

This is the home of Brother Bill and Emma Smalley. He is white and she is Filipino. He was excommunicated about 25 years ago and she was very much Catholic. We met him at the mall and talked for quite a while. The sisters have been teaching her and Norm is going to baptize her this coming Saturday. He is getting back into the church as well. He has built this home mostly by himself, including the furniture. It has taken him 4 years and he will be several more finishing it but it is very nice. They are wonderful people.<br />

These darling sisters are from Calape. We are giving them a ride to Tagbilaran to visit a very dear man, Brother Kenneth, from Calape who is in the hospital with acute appendicitis. Sister Milet with the dark glasses is our R.S. president. She is married to a white man, Steve Senior, and they just left for the US and will spend 3 months there. They are wonderful people. The other Sister is Elsa. She has more troubles than you can believe but such a good member of the church. Her home was destroyed in the earthquake and she has lived in the most humble circumstances. Mostly just a tarp hanging over a tin roof. I just thought they looked cute both in their yellow shirts in the back seat of our truck and they were just jabbering in Cebauno.</div>

A couple who live in Garcia, just outside of Jagna. He is white from American and been excommunicated for about 25 hours. Married Emma and she Catholic but is going to be baptized the 31st of October and they want Norm to baptize her. She cooked dinner for us and it was the best meal we have eaten here. He has been 4 years building their home and it is a mansion. It probably isn't half done but they are living in it. He is building the furniture, doing all the electrical, plumbing, he is doing everything. He is working on getting back into the church and we hope he is baptized before we leave. We first met him shopping and he stopped us and talked. He loves Norm.<br />

The dear man in red is Filipino but living in Spain. He is a very staunch member and is visiting his relatives here in Jagna and none of them are members of the church so we took he and the Elders around to get introduced so they can be taught the gospel. It was a wonderful afternoon. He was so happy to get us all introduced before he left which will be next week. He is 78 years old.</div>

A young couple in Loon, Arnel and Meteth need a roof over their dirty kitchen. Brother Bell and Norm are helping. Aneng is in the black shirt. He has a deformed arm you can see on the left but he is an amazing young man. He accomplishes as much as anyone with his one arm. They have been baptized for a year just now.</div>

This is their home - back door. You can sort of see their bedroom on the inside. The other little part is kitchen. I don't think there is a bathroom (CR - comfort room).<br />

Sister Bell and I decided there wasn't a lot we could do so we went to the Loon church and she practiced the piano. I was going to do indexing but the internet didn't want to do that so I read. The church had a fan and a bathroom which the building site didn't have so we were in a good place.<br />

The builders took a two hour lunch break so we ran on to Clarin to get a bed. On our way back the road was closed because this bus ran off the road. It was only a one lane road because of construction so we watched for a couple hours while they tried to get the bus back on the road. It was quite the deal.<br />

Monday back on the project. Sister Bell didn't show up today (wise move on her part) and I spent 6 1/2 hours sitting in the truck. It took forever to put the boards up. Norm couldn't believe how fussy they were. Everything had to be sawed by hand.<br />

Norm was on the roof too long and it was too hot. He had either a heat stroke or dehydration but he got really sick. He wondered if he was going to make it but we are happy to announce he did.<br />

President Saballa is trying to help him. That is the completed project. Now they are going to do a floor for them and that will be another project. I think the Elders will help with that. It took 4 days to get that much done. We paid for the materials or it wouldn't have got done at all. We are so happy to be able to help.Lettyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00242918962211833835noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-714692273462355198.post-52834941238981863772015-09-28T07:56:00.002-07:002015-09-28T07:56:55.872-07:00Sept 20 - 27<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
This week has been scarce on the picture taking. Our biggest activity was transfers and that was the hardest we have done so far. We started gathering people on Tuesday - some had to go to Cebu for early meeting. Then we gathered more on Wednesday and Thursday was the biggest day. We started at 5:00 a.m. Made 4 trips to the ferry - delivering and picking up and transporting. At one time we had 6 missionaries in our truck besides us. 5 were in the back seat and they are not small people and I had an extra one in front with me and that meant I was sitting on the gear shift. We were very cozy and thank goodness it was a short drive of about 15 minutes. Later we had 6 more but 2 of the elders climbed in the very back of the truck and that was dandy. We started at 5:00 a.m. and returned home a little after 10 p.m. I am always so grateful when everyone is delivered safely. You can picture all of the luggage. Each missionary having 2-3 luggage and bagss.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
We needed to take one elders luggage to him on Friday morning and that was an hour and a half drive away so we spent much time getting people where they needed to go.</div>

Sunday we went to church in Panglao which is close by where we live. Norm and I spoke and I also played the keyboard. It certainly isn't my favorite to play but we got along. The talks went ok I think. I told them we were Elder Tolman's grandparents and several of them came up afterwards with such big smiles on their faces. They love Elder Tolman. The usual comment, he works hard - it was his last area and it is so fun to follow where he has been. Although I do miss him as we drive by his apartment a lot.</div>

They meet in the cutest place. Below is the sacrament table. They had just taken the white cloth off. I loved the cute plants behind. They had plants everywhere which is unusual where we have been before.</div>

I am going to teach this sister piano lessons. She does play already so we will see how that goes. She is married but her husband isn't active. She gave the Sunday School lesson and did a wonderful job. That is the group leader standing by her.<br />

This is Brother Lock and Sister Ruby. Jake helped get the paper work ready so she could be baptized. They had 3 different dates for her but things kept getting confused. Jake had to get it all straightened out. Brother Lock is from North Ogden. He is in his 70's and she is in her 20's. Don't know how long they have been married, but she is the sweetest and the prettiest lady.<br />

After our meetings in Panglao we went to Bililihan to their group meeting at 2:30. They meet in the Elders apartment. The Elders move everything out and put up chairs. We started out with 11 people counting Norm and I and the two Elders and the group leader. After we started a mother and her little daughter came and after that 2 investigators came so we made it to 15. At first I thought it was kind of hard for such few people. I didn't understand the talks in Cebauno - one missionary talked and the group leader talked. But the sweetest sister gave the Sunday School lesson and it was just precious. She spoke a lot of English and she was so personable - just walking around and talking to everyone. It was wonderful and I was so glad we were there.<br />

On Saturday we attended this self reliance graduation. 68 graduated. It was amazing to me. It is sort of like a bridgerland program, they can do sewing, cooking, welding, etc. They attend a 12 week course and they graduate. This is a huge milestone for these dear people. It just thrilled me to see them progress and improve their lives. They had a wonderful graduation. I don't know where they got the cap and gowns but they were all so happy. They had the graduation music and all. Much food afterwards. It was a grand occasion.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Elder and Sister Bell attended with us and afterwards he installed a warm water heater in our shower. I can not tell you how grateful I am. I just dread showering and washing the hair takes a lot of gritting teeth but he installed this box thing and it works and I will be forever grateful.</div>

My next happiest news is I found some canned beans. I love green beans. By far my favorite vegetable. When we first came last year I could find canned beans and they were't too bad. I bought quite a bit but then they weren't available any more I have hunted for MONTHS for more green beans but they just have rows and rows of peas and corn and I don't like either of them.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Well, Friday much to my amazement as I was checking, the can said green beans. I actually had to get out my glasses and see if I was seeing right. They had 12 cans of them and I bought all 12. I was back the next day wondering if they would have more but nope. Peas were in the same place. I will surely enjoy my beans although I did give a few away to Sister Bell. Quite noble of me as I am not sure if they will appear again. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Our apartment is getting to feel more like home. Did a bit of baking today - last week we ran out of gas so for 4-5 days there was no cooking. It seems we are always trying to figure something out. But I now have gas, green beans and a warm shower. Things are looking UP!! </div>

Sister Stanley stepped out of the shower and slipped on the tile. Her knee went out on her and she tried to catch herself with her elbow. Ended up with two fractures and we were all so grateful it didn't require surgery. Sister Lappay is her companion. We rested at McDonalds while waiting for Elder Halladay and the truck. They are lovely sisters.</div>

These Elders from Panglao invited us to attend their baptism. We picked them and their bikes up because the bikes needed repair. On the way to the church I asked who was being baptized. The Elder said actually Elder Tolman found this sister. Norm said this wasn't Elder Tolman's area and he said Elder Tolman was on splits and started talking to this lady on the bus. And the rest of the story is she is now baptized. Just warmed my heart. Of course I couldn't wait to tell her we were Elder Tolman's grandparents. Such a sweet sister. It took the elder 4 times to baptize her. It was his first and they didn't do a demonstration. She couldn't get her nose plugged and he couldn't get her completely under. Such a sweet lady.<br />

This weekend has been our District Conference - better known as stake conference for most of you. Elder Augustin, an area seventy, was our visiting brother. We had the privilege of spending much time with him and he truly is a gentle, spiritual giant. He is from Manila. The conference went well. I was in charge of the music which is a little scary. It all went amazingly well considering we had 3 practices. I know we had angels singing with us. It was our last meeting in this area and it truly made me sad to think we were moving on and wouldn't see them as much. I have grown to love them.</div>

After conference they were taking lots of pictures. The girl second from the left is April and I taught her piano lessons. She is VERY talented. Is now off to college and will go on a mission.. I am standing between Britzel and Nino - brother and sister. They are both in college. I taught Nino piano. Their Grandparents are the Lanzaderas couple that we went to the temple with. Love them so much. You never see them but what they hug you and thank you for helping them. Sister Tanner and Sister Bell, our new senior Sister who is teaching me more than I am teaching her for sure. So very capable and wonderful to work with.</div>

We stayed here Saturday night. President and Sister Tanner and Elder Augustin were all here. It was a privilege for us to be with them. I could just feel their goodness and it was a special experience for me. This is a rare place to stay in the Philippines, even has a swimming pool which Norm GREATLY enjoyed. </div>

We are enjoying dinner together. They have delicious food. I haven't been much on eating out but this place is good. I think I have tried most things on the menu and have liked them all - Norm not so much. He said he preferred their pancakes.</div>

My first attempt at baking in this new apartment didn't turn out too well. Brownies in the back turn out blackies!!! Everything broiled instead of baked. Happy to report we have improved since this picture was taken. Tonight I made pizza. It wasn't Norm's favorite but I ate a lot.</div>

There was a family, Father and Mother with 4 children and then 3 additional baptisms. It was a wonderful day! The first baptisms in the area for many years. They are actually from Duraro, but Jagna had the font.</span><br />

They cooked chicken nuggets, cut the raw chicken off the bone and went to work, and they cooked rice and fried it, and then they bought a chicken to add a little more.

On the same trip we picked up this sister, Sister Magsayo at the airport just returning from Las Vegas. Her sister in the white top, returned from her mission in Ogden, Utah just a month ago. We had all 5 of these sisters in the back seat of our truck. Not even room for a mosquito.<br />
<br />
We delivered the Elder at 9:30 and were suppose to pick up the sister at 10:30 but when she got to Manila she needed $100 American dollars for her luggage and she didn't have it so the church had to get the money and she missed her flight. We waited 5 1/2 hours for her. There is no room in the airport. You meet people outside on the street. It was a long 5 1/2 hours We took them to eat which took a little while. and then we ran some errands. It was an hour and a half ride to get there so we couldn't go home. <br />

Elder and Sister Bell from Hooper, Utah are our new Senior couple. They now live in our apartment. They are here for 23 months. He has been extremely successful in his business. Was a plumber and had many stores. This is their first mission and they plan on going on 3 missions. They are extremely capable people and very ambitious. We are learning from them instead of them learning from us. We are so very grateful to have some help on this island. This dear sister is actually a Richards from Brigham City. She is Emery and Lucille Wight's grand daughter. Absolutely wonderful people. Janice and Murial are her aunts.<br />

Couldn't resist this picture of Sister Tanner on her knees in the bookstore. She is a dear sister.<br />
<br />
I do have more pictures that I evidently lost in transferring them from one machine to another. I don't dare try to retrieve them or I will probably lose what I have so I just hope for the best. <br />
<br />
We are doing well. We have been gone so much since we moved in that we are barely getting settled but it is going to be good.<br />
<br />
The first day we were here, my oven didn't work, the washing machine wouldn't work - ended up wringing out the clothes by hand and the neighbor told us we would be out of water for 4 days. I wasn't so sure we had made a good move. I am trying the washing machine again in the morning and hope it is happier this time. The oven seems to have recovered and we do have water.<br />
<br />
On the funny side, the only batch of wash I did was whites - when they said we would be out of water I hurried and washed garments. A couple days ago Norm announced he was out of garments and he couldn't find them. I told him that was impossible, he had plenty of garments, I went in search but I couldn't find them either. We looked for a couple days but no garments. I started thinking about it and told him I left his on the line for him to gather, I took the shirts to iron and my garments. Now he thinks he remembers putting them in a sack and forgot what was in the sack and put it in the garbage. They are GONE! Guess I will quit looking for them.<br />
<br />
Love you all! Stay well, be safe and BE HAPPY!!!!!<br />

Another picture of the Tanner family. This is their daughter, Sarah with her daughter, Gracie and her son, Andrew. We were suppose to go to dinner together but President Tanner didn't consult me and decided they should take the ferry to Cebu. This is our blue truck which we live in. It has air conditioning. It is a little large for the traffic and narrow roads but Norm manages quite well most of the time.<br />

This is our Tubigan chapel which has the nicest piano in the district and that isn't saying much. We are having a missionary farewell party. Sister Perez is on the left and she lives behind us. Sister Calaugi, Sister Genevieve has just returned from serving in the Ogden, Utah mission. She speaks English very well and loved her mission in Utah. Then we have the two sister missionaries. The one in the gray took a crash course learning to play the piano and did very well. The last sister lives behind us.</div>

The two missionaries, 4 people in the middle are friends. They decided at the last minute to go to the airport with us and the only room we had was in the back of the truck for an hour and a half on a construction road that is bumpy but that is what they did. The sister on the end is the Mother of the sister on the other end. She is sort of active.<br />

We went shopping and Norm announced he wanted to buy material to have some pants made. He wants a light purple and a light green. The light purple he chose is next to the orange. The saleslady told him it wasn't heavy enough to make pants. We were blessed on that one. He is still looking. We did pick out a green which isn't shown but it is sort of an olive green. Is this a sign of what? Has Norm been out too long and he is going stir crazy. Has he worn dark pants and white shirts too long? Could use more prayers on that one. :)<br />

An ongoing CSP to build a CR for a sister.We had many CSP's to dig the hole and now they have to build it. They have hauled this cinder block which is very heavy in a very rickety wheel barrow. The sacks have sand and gravel in them. All this is dumped along the side of the road which is not close. So it has to be shoveled into bags and then hauled by wheel barrow to the house. Very heavy and very hot project. At the moment there is no water. Don't you just love the board windows?!?!<br />

Today was our first choir practice for District (our stake) conference. I had them announce to please be on time. It was to start at 3:00. It is now 3:30 and this is the turnout. The sister in the black top is the chorister. The sister in the black skirt is President Nueva's wife and she doesn't sing. The other two sisters live behind us. The sister in the light top is just brand new out and she is from South Jordan, Sister Stanley. By 3:40 we had about 25 people there. They have a terrible time getting rides. We have two more practices. Could use more prayers on this one too.<br />
<br />
This is the Calap chapel which is the nicest chapel in the district and it is air conditioned.<br />
<br />
We got word yesterday that the money has come in for our new apartment but we can't move in until WE have the money which won't be until next Wednesday. Wednesday we are to help some missionaries move and that night we are feeding 6 missionaries here. Thursday is our district zone training so we will move on Friday. Saturday we are involved in more missionary activities. One area is baptizing 9 people. Great day!<br />
<br />
Our new Senior Couple will be here the following week so it is going to be interesting to see if we have things moved and cleaned by then. I hope our new apartment is going to be as nice as I think it is going to be.<br />
