Day 265 - Wednesday, March 22, 2017
 We had our Zone Interviews in Camiling.  This was a zone where we visited each of the houses.  In the middle of our interviews, we stopped for some interviews with President Clark.  This is a picture with two sisters that are going on missions.  They were able to receive a temple recommend.  The wiser (and a bit older) sister came for a temple recommend interview as well.  This sister is armed with an umbrella for very good reason. The weather in the Philippines right now is HOT!  Today was about 106 degrees real feel. This cute lady walks everywhere she goes.  To walk to the church is over 2 km's.  When she walked in she looked fresher than me.  I had been in warm homes of our missionaries just sitting and looked like a drenched rat.  This sister walked in after her walk and looked as fresh and cute as could be.  The Branch President was here to make sure the tagalog and english team worked properly.  President Clark is a pro at giving the temple recommend in Tagalog.  No nose bleeds today!

Day 336 - Monday, May 29, 2017 When I look at this picture, the words that come to mind are "Consecrated Servants."  Each couple has a place in our hearts.  These leaders range from Area Presidency and wives to Area Medical Professionals to Mission Presidents and their companions.  We gather two times a year under the direction of the Area Presidency.  These seasoned servants come from all over the world...Philippines, Netherlands, Europe and America.  All come with singular purpose but bring a multiplicity of talents.  A quote by Joseph F. Smith nicely sums up our feelings about these splendid saints, "Gratitude is said to be the memory of the heart."  We will never forget them and how they served us.

Day 213 - Saturday, January 28, 2017 I sat in the hall with this cute sister in Bongabon.  We were waiting for the adult session to begin for the  District Conference.  It was fascinating to speak with her.  She has been working abroad for many, many years.  Her husband and two children remained in the Phililppines.  She is grateful to now live full-time in the Philippines again.

Day 378 - July 9, 2017 The next 24+ hours was spent on the road, catching a few hours sleep, Church in Cheyenne, Wyoming and more time driving and experiencing the landscape of the west and midwest.  My instagram post was, "Same moon; different hemisphere.  Still magical." #goinghome #chicagoland #nextadventure
