Called to Serve: From Kiribati to Legazpi

Kumusta,      My families need to create their email accounts because my mission president will help me out with texting him and he will paste my message to their email.  I will not be able to communicate with them because it is so risky here.  The virus is everywhere and many people have it.  I love you all and the quarantine is extended until May 15th but as I know it will be still extended.  I don't know when the quarantine will end.  Many cases of Coronavirus are discovered here in Albay.  I'm still praying for you all that you may be safe from this pandemic virus.      We still contact members and investigators through cell phone calls and texting.  They said that soon we may get smart phones after this long quarantine.  The government is so strict.  We are not even allowed to buy anything because of the safety of the people.      I'm doing okay.  Still helping our mission president with moving the work forward.  I am praying hard and doing my very best to overcom

Hello Everyone!      The news here is that we are still in the lock down but we borrowed a computer because we want to talk to our families.  We are doing good because we have so much more time to study all the scriptures and reading.  We still continue on with our normal schedule but the difference is that we do not go outside for the work.       Yeah, we are doing good even though there are some cases of COVID-19 nearby where we live. Some people are getting infected but not really many more than before because the good thing is everyone is not allowed to get outside.  So I am the only foreign Elder missionary left here in the Philippines.  There are also two sisters missionaries - one from Kiribati and the other from Australia.  We were not able to get a flight home due to restrictions.       We are still praying for any miracle for all the people to be helped and relieve this lock down.  With our prophet, we are all having a whole world fast for everyone.  Thank you all for your
