Hey everyone!! Another crazy week in Sipalay, lots of fun and good things that happened.
But also one thing that is really not great.. which is I ate some dried fish on friday and got a fish bone stuck reallllllly deep in my mouth. So, I get to go to the city today to get it pulled out! I don't need to worry though because this literally happens all the time here in the Philippines. I'll update you next week about it!
Anyways brother Mark continues strong, we're really just trying to give him enough encouragement and space to progress well, and he is. I know by the end of this year he will be baptized!
Also this less-active family we've been visiting has almost returned! They've been to church threetimes now since I've been here and one of them, Gerald, brings his younger brother Jay who we're hoping will be baptized on the 11th. We're so excited! The work continues on :)
Annnd the good news from Magsungay just keeps coming! I'm not sure if you guys remember but Sister Bernolo and I taught two of Elmer's and Raniel's cousins that always went to church but never got permission to be baptized.. well they finally got permission and got baptized on Saturday!! Seriously it's amazing how this area brings me so much joy even after I've left it for months now haha, I'm so blessed to have met these people!
Anyways, thanks for all the love and support! You guys are the best :)
Sister Pope
