Mountains to climb

Dearest pamilya! Hello po! Wow, this week has been so wonderful and busy! I think missionaries must loose a couple years of their life from their missions! But, it's good because that means that we can see Heavenly Father sooner :). I just got an email from my AP's. So apparently I am going to train this next transfer....AH!! So, it means I could be staying in Los Banos or moving to a different area...I will be so sad if I have to transfer, we have alot of baptisms set up for the next month and a half. Mountains to Climb. I am just finishing up my 12 weeks training and now will repeat it and train a new missionary. I am surprised that I am training bc there are only 3 new sisters coming in next week, my possibility of training was not high. The Lord likes to challenge me I see. Whenever some task looks to hard for me to do, He always helps me to accomplish those things. As I was reading in Moroni 9:25 I fell in love with this scripture. It says that Christ can lift us up. Because of the atonement. He can lift us up in our trails. What would happen to your problems if you spent more time in the presence of God. Being lifted up by HIM. We would be filled with love and confidence. Our fear would dissolve and evaporate. I know as I am lifted up in Christ, my trails don't become challenges but memories of joy. The Lord's Investigators: Brother Pestano, (PM family) is set on his baptism date for Nov 16. He is keeping all his commitments and has come to church every week with his family together. He said, I dont want to wait, handa ako, handa ako. He is ready. His son Brother Trio is right behind him, baptism date set 3 weeks after. Brother Pestano can baptize his son! Then they will become a completed family! I love eternal families! We planned an FHE with their family and the Chua family. Both was their fist time to have a FHE together. They just talked and talked, they will be a great fellowshipper, so help them create friendships. Brother Pestano is not a normal philipino, when he says he does something, he really does! Masaya :) Sister Rosel and Mary Jane, icing, althea, and others came to a baptism with us in Calamba! They got all dressed up in sunday clothes and we all went together, so happy! My district leader Elder Tolentino said that specific blessings comes to those who attend a baptismalservice. I hope they will be blessed spiritually and temporally. I hope they can have enough food so that they can make it to church. A small miracle happened. Bother Ronie coudnt read the BOM bc is glasses were broken. We were almost about to not see him very often and put him on back ups when he said, my mom bought me new glasses! I can read the book now! Money is such a such hindrance or trail of the people here. They have so much faith. You are always in my thoughts and my prayers. Mahal mahal ko Los Banos! Mahal ko lahat mga tao dito. Umlad ko araw araw. Talaga. Ito simbahan ay tototoo. Raramdaman ko espiritu santo malakasan. Alam ko na ito gawa ay pinikamahalaga para sa laugin dito! Climb up that mountain. Never look back. Look at what all lies ahead of you. The Lord always has something great. Mahal kita! Sister Reed
