Bagyo?

  Kamusta y'all!

    There was supposed to be a bagyo(typhoon) this last week, but it decided to go somewhere else. :) We just got some rain and a little wind, but it wasn't really a problem.

     We had a really good week, and five of the people we're teaching came to church! We also were able to set a baptismal date with a sister we recently started teaching. Kathlyne used to come to church with her aunt and cousins, and she's just recently started coming again. Her mother is very supportive, because she sees how diligent and obedient her nieces and nephews are and wants Kathlyne to be influenced by them. But she herself is content in her own religion and isn't interested in coming to church with her daughter. We're hoping that as she witnesses the blessings in the life of her own daughter, and as Kathlyne shares her already growing testimony, she will become willing to "come and see."

     What I really liked about her story is the role Kathlyne's aunt and cousins played. They have been active members for a long time, and a few of them have already served missions. Kathlyne's mother was able to see the goodness of their lives, and at least somewhere inside wants that for her daughter. The Savior has set us to be a light on a hill, and He is the light which we shine. As we faithfully keep the commandments and honor our covenants, His countenance will radiate from us. Others will see it. And maybe someday it will change their life.

    Aganad y'all!
