Day 53 - Sunday, August 21, 2016
This morning I received a text that said, "Sister Clark, good morning we don't have water in our house since last night and also the zone leaders."  So what do I do with that?  Today is #Hisday and I can't have our Assistants, Office Elders and Zone Leaders not matching the message.  They all piled into the van and descended on the mission home.  I'm not sure they knew what to do about a warm shower instead of a cold bucket shower.  Nonetheless, they were clean, we gave them some pandesol and hot chocolate.  The Assistants waited their turns for the shower by gaining extra instruction from President Clark.  We bid them farewell so that we could get to Mabalacat's Stake Conference. 
It was a great way to begin the Sabbath! #Hisday #weloveSunday

Day 325 - Thursday, May 18, 2017 Today is President Clark's birthday.  It is also the final day of the Mission President Seminar.  This is our final Mission President's Seminar.  It is a day for me to reflect on just how wonderful this man is.  He is my strength, my go-to adviser, my knight in shining armor.  Our adventure in the Philippines has deepened my desire to be with him through the eternities.   A witness and testimony! These are days never to be forgotten!

Day 307 - Saturday, April 29, 2017   Today we drove over to Baler early in the morning.  Monday is a national holiday so we couldn't find a vacant hotel room.  This meant we did all of our work in one day.  We did our interviews with these dedicated Elders then took them to an all-you-can-eat buffet.  It began as a quiet meal but as their stomachs began to fill, there was more conversation.  They are true Elders!  After they finished eating, we went around to each apartment and inspected.  I'm happy to announce that they all had clean apartments.    Elders being taught.

Day 379 - July 10, 2017                                         At approximately 6:30 a.m. on Monday morning we arrived at our home in Naperville.  Another wash of emotion fell upon us.  We were tired from traveling but rejuvenated with an enthusiasm for next steps.  My good friend, Lisa, welcomed us with balloons and notes all over the front door.  Our home looked so well kept.  Our friends who stayed here while we were gone took tender loving care of it.  It's good to be home!
