The Church here in the Philippines was begun because of the testimony and tenacity of a sister. Her husband and she had been stationed here during the war, and remained to help afterward. She worked very hard to get the Church here, and due to her efforts, a chapel was built here in the 60's. That chapel was the Buendia Chapel, built out in a large, grassy area far from much else. Today, that is the chapel next to the mission office, and the one that we attend. Notice the change in surroundings.

| Another view, with Elder Northrup helping to give the setting, no longer a pastoral one! |

| And a close-up,, just for fun. |
