Kumusta Po Kayo.
Sa Lingo Na ito May National Philippines Service day po
Kami! Masaya
Siya. We cleaned a park in the area called Freedom park.
 We had the
Church's yellow helping hands vests and it was a lot of
fun as I
continue to find out what a Small world it is I meet the
 parents of a
Filipino Elder I'd got to know in the MTC. Elder Salvador
 is serving
in Alaska which I think is hilarious seeing as how cold
 a Filipino
would be their! I couldn't help but laugh thinking of all
 the places
for me to be assigned I got to meet his parents. They we're
 so sweet
asking about how their son had been last I'd seen him and
if his
English was very good. Our service also has not gone
unnoticed just
this morning while Sister Soriano and I we're at the
Pelanke (Wet
market) We ran into the city counselor who said he'd seen
the service
we'd done at the park and was very pleased. He is not in
our area so
we cannot teach him but we hope to pass his name onto the
 Zone leaders
so that they might be able to share the gospel with him!
 Also this
week Sister Soriano and we're so excited to hear that
Sister Edith one
of our investigators who is ALWAYS at church every week,
 has finally
receive a long awaited answer about Joseph Smith being a
true prophet.
She shared with us just last night her wonderful spiritual
 experience
she said that she was the only one awake late at night in
 their small
home and though not sure if a real voice or in a dream
someone spoke
to her and said just trust me don’t doubt it! As she shared
 her
experience both sister Soriano and I felt the spirit very
strong.
Sister Edith has a Baptismal goal date for the very
beginning of this
next transfer and we now feel like she’s finally really
ready to keep
that Baptismal Goal Date! It’s funny because this week
I’d suggested
in weekly planning that we fast for her and ask her to
maybe fast
along side with us for her to receive and answer to her
prayers, and
just as we we’re going to review fasting with her and
make the
suggestion she stopped us and said Sisters ! I have
something to tell
you! I got an answer to my prayer! I cannot explain the
 warmth that
filled my heart as she beamed at me and my companion
excited to share
what had happened to her. I testified to her of course
that we know
these things are true because as missionaries we see it
every day in
the lives of those we work with and as I told her no
matter who we
talk to it is always the same they feel the warmth the
 feelings of
peace and then they know it is true, that Joseph Smith is
 a true
prophet that this is the Church of Christ restored to the
 earth! We've
got a lot going on this week. We're moving apartment's on
 Thursday so
its going to be SUPER hectic, but just like I always tell
 my
investigators, with god all things are possible! I love you
 all I miss
you loads, check out the pictures of our service project on
photobucket.
INGAT SA LAHAT.
Mahal Na Mahal Kita,
Sister Quinn
