Sunset over the rice fields of Calinaan
Today was a good day. This morning was long though and we wasted a lot of time waiting for Bro Oreta and Bro Pulido at the church so that they could clean. After waiting a whole hour only Bro Pulido came and cleaned. We also did some finding here in Calintaan. We didn’t get to teach any lessons however this morning.
After lunch we went out to Cansaliw to visit the Malabjas. Pres Isla had just gotten back from El Progresso and so he was wasted and couldn’t come with us. Also Bro Malabja wasn’t there so we just taught sister about obeying and honoring the law. She is still a little shy about praying but it is getting better and better.

When we got back into Dagupan we went and visited Bro Rose at the shop. He does very amazing work and so we watched him for a while. We also got to teach their whole family about baptism and both Rose Ann and Irene accepted to be baptized on the 16th. I really love that family. They are the closest thing that I’ve seen from going from start to finish and baptism. Their lives have really changed and you can see that they are happier and even healthier than they were before. Bro Viloria came with us and was a great help. He helped them to identify the spirit and everything. He will really always be a great asset to this branch and to all the Elders that ever will be assigned here.
