Brown Out

Saturday evening we had a real banger of a thunderstorm and were without power most of the night. It made for kind of a unique baptism. MaryLuna Gabuya was baptized. She is a very sweet lady who the missionaries have been teaching; actually they were teaching her son but the son has all kinds of marriage and  other problems and as yet has not gotten baptized but his mother became interested and accepted the gospel. Anyway we went ahead with the baptism in the dark with everyone using their cellphones for light. It was actually kind of neat and there was a wonderful Spirit there and she bore a very sweet testimony. The rest of the night was not very fun though because we had no aircon and no fans so it was extremely hot and muggy all night. When the power came on finally at 3am I was so drenched with sweat I had to get up and change clothes. I'ts funner in the Philippines!
