Week 103

Hello Friends and family,

This Email will be quick for I shall see most of you very soon.

Elder Collins and I enjoying are last week together in the prettiest area in the mission.

I celebrated my Birthday this last P-Day and I am thankful again for all the birthday wishes and for Elder Taylor and Collins buying a Red Ribbon cake for BROTHER Terry.

Saying Goodbye to the Branch was very difficult. I love and will miss them all.

Week 102

Hello Friends and family,

I am grateful to be able to write and hear from you again this week. Thank you as well for all the Birthday wishes you have sent this way. It will be a great day.

It's been another great week here in Alaminos.

The First Counselor of the branch, Brother Balili, gave us a referral about 4 weeks ago to a less active family that had just moved back to our ward boundaries. After teaching one lesson to them we realized that 2 of their daughters haven't been baptized yet.

So we taught them the lessons and the Family enthusiastically returned with full fellowship and Gyn Gyn 12, and Ilaine 9 were baptized this last Saturday

This is the Osorio Family who lives extremely far away from the church and have no transportation, but still always seem to find a way to make it.

We lastly found a grove of trees.

I guess next week will be the last email I send from the Philippines.

Love Elder Terry

Week 101

Hello Po,

I am grateful again for the chance to email you all again

I am very happy that my last area is here in Alaminos (Home of the 100 Islands) the most beautiful zone because I get to visit beaches like this. Patar Beach

and see views like this. The Tip of Bolinao

The work is also great because I get to look at things like this daily. (find the pig)

and I even get to work with some of the best of the best missionaries.

I am just very happy that I am here in the Philippines serving as a missionary in this true Church of Jesus Christ. Even though the time is wrapping up I still learn something new everyday and gain a stronger testimony of the atonement of Jesus Christ as I use it daily. I just want to say again I am grateful for you all and the love, support, and prayers you have given me. See you real soon. ❤

Week 100

Hello Friends and Family,

This week was great. Well it was just another Normal week here in Pangasinan.

We went bowling in Dagupan

We are learning how to make Filipino food so I can cook when I am home.

Happy Birthday Sister Nor.

We visited the Beach again in Victoria Alaminos.

As the last final weeks wind down I really am just trying to enjoy every last bit of time I have left to work in the Philippines as hard as I can.

I Love and Miss you all

Elder Terry
