Here in Libmanan, we focus on families, and especially on tatays.
My aki and I are doing just dandy. Sister Falcon is just go, go, go and its great! Very helpful. She seems to not really be struggling much with the culture adjustment at all so that's nice..now we just have to keep working on the language. She is really anxious to learn and to apply what she is learning. Very helpful :) Lots of good things happenin' here in Libmanan.
Our vision for these next 2 transfers is helping priesthood holders, or potential priesthood holders, help their families come unto and stay founded on the teachings of Christ. So far, so good.
We have been working with one couple and their little son to help them get to the temple. Our branch had a temple trip last week and we were hoping and praying this family would be able to join..welp a week before, they told us that they just wouldn't be able to make it this time around but hopefully next year..Sis Lua and I were a bit crushed because we had been doing everything we could to help them prepare..well yesterday at church, the sister came up to me and whispered, "Sister, we were able to go to the temple." I was pretty certain I must have heard wrong. When I asked her what she had just said, she said again, with a big smile on her face, "We were able to go to the temple!" I was so happy, all I could do was smile real big and give her a hug! :) I later was able to talk to brother for a minute, (they are both very quiet, kind of shy, usually just keep to themselves people) and he looks at me with just pure joy shining on his face and says simply, "I suppose there is no greater, more beautiful place in all the world." True that.
So happy that our efforts are helping somewhere. :) So good to see them enter the temple and be sealed for all time and eternity. 1 family down, many many more to go.
