First of All: Brother Edsel and Sister Nene got baptized!!!!!!!!!!!!
Second of All: I got transferred to La Trinidad( it's like a part of Baguio City, but not)
Edsel and Nene's baptism was so amazing! Edsel kept pointing out the happiness he was feeling. Right before he went into the water, he began to tear up. When Nene went into the water he held his hands to his face out of joy, something you know I totally do all the time. Edsel bore his testimony of how he discovered the church through Elder Van Dyke and Elder Fisher, experienced a falling away, but gravitated to the truth once again when it was reintroduced by Sister Zander and Sister Tanon. I was so proud of Nene for bearing her testimony as well even though she is actually really shy. She cried as she bore testimony of how grateful she was to have been shown the right way. After, Edsel told me he was so nervous he forgot to thank me in his testimony. He apologized several more times after that over the next day or two. I wasn't offended, just touched that he thought it was that important.
On Sunday I gave a farewell testimony. I am so grateful I had a chance to say goodbye to the members. The youth wrote notes for me on paper towels and many members wanted pictures. Brother Nono was caught off guard that I would be leaving and ended up tearing up and running out. Later that night me, Sister Manu, Brother boy, a few other members(including Brother Edsel and Sister Nene kasi members din sila ngayon:)) had a good lesson with Brother Nono. I asked to sing "I Know My Father Lives" as well as play the ukulele. Then we read the verse about God's love in 2 Nephi 4 and invited everyone to go around the room and express how they feel God's love or if they have a specific experience in regard to that. I started in saying one way I express love is through music, and that's why I sang at the beginning and it is also how I feel God's love for me. Other answers included through family or through trials. Brother Nono was last. He started crying again and said the reason he was emotional was because he felt and that he still hadn't changed and now I was leaving and it seemed as though it was too late. We all assured him he can still change, it just takes time. At the end, I asked if anyone wanted to add anything and they said yes. They said they wanted to sing for me. Then they all got up and sang "God Be With You Till We Meet Again" because of the love I said I feel through music I think. My heart exploded from an overload of joy at that point.
