August 11th - 18th

                                                              August 11th - 18th

Working with Sister Ellingson and Sister Rivera in an area of the mission that I have never been - Angeles 3 area. What a different place this is from every other teaching I have ever attended. The spirit was strong and I loved being able to talk in English!

This neighborhood had siding on the houses, actual trash cans, and no trikes allowed. We had a great lesson with a returning member - Sister Catherine and her son 9 year old Adam. Then we taught her next-door neighbor and gave her a Book of Mormon. There is power in the Book of Mormon.

Welcome to the Philippines Angeles Mission Sister Adjadottor. She is from Ghana! We are thrilled to have her here serving with us!
