Hello all!! well here is my status report from the Philippines... clear skies and one paved road in my whole area (Siaton, Negros). i love it here. it is getting easier and easier being here, and being able to understand more and more Visayan each day. my comp and i have two baptisms on Saturday (same day as Isaac & Shelby) which is awesome. We had a zone conference with President Schmutz last friday, and there is new revelation that there is to be no more tracting in the entire Philippines... NO MORE TRACTING. It's crazy!! We are now focusing on reactivating members and getting families to the temple. this is so we can have a firm base to which we can bring more children into the fold and them stay in, instead of "baptizing into inactivity". So i am going to cebu tomorrow for a update training just for one day. it will be a long journey just to be in cebu for like 4 hours. (1 1/2 hour bus ride, 1 hour barge ride, 8 hour bus. and back again) butttttttt things are going really well. well a lot of good things happened this week, and i am just so happy to be a missionary. i eat a lot of fish and rice every day, but it is all good- part of the experience and most of the time it is really yummy. well yeah no much else going on besides the work. I'm loving it. I love not having to worry about anything else except for preaching the gospel. It's the life. Well i gotta go. Much love, kinamanguangan DeSchepper.
