Change, it is possible

Dearest Pamilya, Wow, this has been one crazy week, from traveling to Manila, then to Gumaca, exchanges in Tayabas, then the Malinao chapple dedication...i think we were in our are for 2 days but in those 2 days i saw miracles. We had a many investigators attend church this Sunday so that is always happy. Here are how our investigators are diong this week 1. Amor San Juan. Is addicted heavily to alcohol and cigarets. He wants to change, he came to church and commits to live the word of wisdom. When i look at him, i think that he can become a strong priesthood leader and father in the church. 2. Pousy Villasin, before, she is pretty hard as a rock. But she felt goose bumps during the Restoration video. She wants to understand her answer through the spirit. She wants to know truth but her actions are not enough, she still needs to show her faith by attending church. When she prays if the church is true, she gets horror flash backs of when she saw her son die. I know we can help her to find her answer. 3. Norma Oloveros. She lives really FAR away and lives in really poor circumstances, she has recieved an answer that this is the truth church. She said on sunday she only have 50 pesos and she has to decide if she will use it for rice or to get to church. She hasnt come to church yet but we are still trying to help her build her faith. They are not married and her husband doesn't want to be married, but a miracle happened and they are working on their papers!!! 4. When i was in Tayabas, i saw sister joemilyn again. Wow, she is changing totally. Before her countenance was dark and she was quiet and not very receptive. Now, after time and reading the BOM, she has been filled with light again in her life. She said that she will come to church on sunday. She said, Sister Reed you were the first misisonary to come back to my house in years. Why? I asked her back the same question and asked her why God sent us to her. The spirit was strong and you could feel the love of God for her as a child of God. 5. Sad story, a recent convert of the other sisters told us she didnt want us to come back to see her. She doesnt want to be a part of the church any more. She is content with her life with her job and friends. It makes me sad to see her individual apostasy from the church. But we will still fight for her and help her to come back to so she will not suffer those consequences in the next life. Our ward is amazing! Now that we have a ward mission leader there is correlation in our ward and things will start to move again. They desire to find fellowshippers for us! Yea! MIssionary work isnt complete with out the members. We have been working with the ward and now we can see the fruit of our labors. Mahal kita palagi, alam ko totoo yung gawain ko dito. Walang ibang bagay maaari bibigay yung kagalakan higit kaysa ito!! Ingats parati at huwag kang makakalimuton kailangan natin ibahagi yung mensahe sa lahat ng tao sa lahat ng dako! Sister Reed
