Well its’ been a few weeks without finding time to write a message but many, many things have transpired. We are still very much learning our job and vast responsibilities in working with LDS Charities, but a number of pending projects we have been developing are beginning to come to futurity. 
Since I last wrote we have visited several proposed clean water projects: in Nagcarlan (St. Lucia), in Sagada (Northern Mountainous Area of Luzon) ; have completed the National Mass Measles/Polio Campaign with DOH; started and conducted the launch of the Infant Polio Injectable Vaccination Campaign with DOH in both Paranaque (a Suburb of Manila) and Guimbal (a Neighboring Community to Iloilo City - on Iloilo Island); have conducted several Medical Screening in the Communities of Legaspi & Naga; have visited several Meetinghouses (Chapels) in screening them as future evacuation or operational centers during natural disasters and/or emergencies; have visited our ongoing Benson Personal/Elementary School Gardening Project with one of our Church Service Missionary Couple monitoring this project – so in short we one-the-road and been busy! See several picture files…
Our assignment in LDS Charities continues to mature, many of the new projects and/or initiatives we have started since we have joined this department is now beginning to roll forth and others which had stalled and needed energized, to re-started are now in fully operation. Never any time to look around much, for the telephone keeps ringing and door keeps swinging wide open and we are in full in forward motion. Time goes far faster when you are very, very busy and fully engaged. Our transition between Public Affairs (where we formerly served) to the Humanitarian Department with LDS Charities (our new assignment) is finally becoming our new real home. We love this new work - especially we enjoy seeing the impact and value on the personal lives and futures for so many young people and children as we help them in so many differing ways. Offering a helping hand to lift and improve their lives of others is very rewarding and satisfying. We are so grateful for the loving support of our family, friends and wonderful management of this effort.
We sure love everyone, we fully appreciate your continued support and ongoing comment, and may the Lord bless each of you.
