Sister Missionaries Baptism

We spent most of the day at a baptism in Ternate. The sisters in Mandaluyong had 4 men and one boy to be baptized and they wanted to be baptized in the ocean so they held it at the Ternate Resort.
It was a beautiful day and a nice drive as you can see from the pictures.It was wonderful to see so many potential priesthood holders get baptized and to have so many families united in the gospel. One of them was a Chinese fellow who had lived in New York  and then come back here to live.He has a Filipino wife and two children a boy and a girl. All of the men bore there testimonies afterwards and it was really a spiritual feast. We had lunch afterwards and got to visit with some of the members of the ward. Some of them knew the Leverizas and other people from Mandaluyong that I knew before.This afternoon we taught Melody the Word of Wisdom.She drinks coffee but she is so good as soon as she knew she wasn't supposed to she said: "ok I won't drink it any more".It was so good!
