   Hey ya'll! This past week has been super spiritual and over all just guided by the lord. I'm thankful I get to share it with you!!    We started out the week with exchanges on Tuesday. Elder McArthur and I had a great day! We unfortunately had our day cut short by an earlier dinner appointment but still, I learned so much about how to work more effectively!!     Wednesday in Spanish is Miércoles. If you hear someone say it, and you don't know Spanish, you'd think they said "Miracles"!!! Well maybe that's just me, but our Wednesday was truly a miracle. We had absolutely no clue what to do on Wednesday morning. We tried to call and text our friends but nothing was working. We decided to go to one of our friends a little farther away. Once we got off of our bikes we checked our phone, we saw that we had missed a couple calls and texts from some Elders in our Zone (the farthest area). It was an emergency to say the least. We dropped everything and biked...

     Hey everyone! This past week was excellent in the work of the Lord! I hope you all saw the hand of the Lord in each on of your lives. If you had any experiences you want to share, shoot me an email. Alright, let's get into the week!     We started of the week strong with exchanges! I got to spend the day and learn with Elder Roque! He's a quiet guy but full of wisdom. I enjoy whenever I get the chance to work with him. He teaches from the heart and it is awesome to witness. We had some fun and did alooooot of biking!! Just out of curiosity I checked how much biking we did. I'll link the screenshot below.    Wednesday and Thursday we really worked hard on getting back to people we've been finding. We met some amazing people and two of them came to church!! Unfortunately we didn't get any pictures with them, but next week!! Sister Clarimel and Nanay Marina came to the rebroadcasting of General Conference! Which I must say was amazing. I had a hard t...

We're doing well over here in the Philippines! Fun fact: the national fruit of the Philippines is the carabao mango. It's masarap.      I am a little lazy in the writing emails department right now so this will have to suffice. I know that Jesus Christ us real. He Is Real. I know he paid for the sins of all who have ever or will ever live on this earth. I can't comprehend the extent of his suffering but one thing I have come to understand more fully is the reason for why he did what he did. This is love. His love is like a lighthouse in my life. It guides me in times of trouble and also directs my actions as I journey through this time of my spiritual progression.     I love yall so much and encourage you all to look for his love in your life. Peace Elder Baker
