Day 305 - Thursday, April 27, 2017
We have been doing missionary interviews all week.  Today was home visits in Cabanatuan. Again I left one apartment without getting a picture.  Here are the others that we visited. Despite the heat in Cabanatuan, these missionaries wore brilliant smiles.  Yes, we had a bright glow most of the day but we loved visiting with our beloved, hard working Elders and Sisters.  Cabanatuan is the hottest area in our mission.  Today the temperatures were 95 degrees and with heat index it was 114.  There is no air conditioning in the homes.  Heat rises and most interviews were upstairs.  It made for warm conversations and moist clothing.  We glowed in the warmth of the gospel.  

This is one of our newest and definitely smallest homes.  It is compact but clean and well suited for our dear Sisters!

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 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!

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.
