Hey guys!
Hey I hope Marissa is feeling better! That's really scary :( I'll continue praying for her!
So this week has been another stellar week as always! Its SOOOO hot (may is the hottest month in the Philippines) BUT it is great haha. Seriously, Sister Burt and I have just been so blessed in our area here in Calapacuan. We only planned on having 3 baptisms this month and are actually going to have 5! Looks like God have a different plan than we did haha, I'm just happy we were able to find the people he has prepared to hear the gospel.
Milagrosa Albino (Mhae's mom) is doing awesome! She reads her Book of Mormon every day and applies what she learns to her own life better than i think i do haha. John, Jernika, and Jerika are doing awesome and are learning more every day and coming to church every Sunday! They will all be baptized this May 31st! They are so so excited :) Chuck, who is Saricris' brother now wants to learn about the gospel because he's seen such a big difference in his sister so we have been teaching him too and now he has a testimony and wants to be baptized! Mhae has been a great little missionary to her family, her mom is getting baptized next week, she invited her grandma who is in a wheelchair to go to church (and she did!) and now we are teaching her uncle and cousins because she gave them a Book of Mormon and they said they felt the spirit when they read it, something telling them it was true.
The Book of Mormon is amazing. I know it is the word of God and I know it changes lives. It changed mine. And it has changed many lives of the people I teach and help here in the Philippines. If you have not read it... READ IT. If you have read it, read it again!! It gives such peace and comfort when you feel like you are alone or don't know what to do in your life.

So besides that, this next week is gonna be interesting... transfer week! I know I'm gonna cry when Sister Burt gets transferred, we are so close and practically real sisters now haha. But I know whatever happens is for a reason and God's plan.
