Friday, April 18-- A Day of Little Miracles

Friday morning we worked in the office because we had so many contracts to work on. The missionaries were having a New Trainer meeting in preparation for transfers this week. After the meeting, most of them came over to the office (across the parking lot.) One who came in asked us if we had a contract for him, which we did, and it saved us a trip. Little miracle 1.  Next, we were trying to talk to a landlord who was charging P200/month for garbage, which the sisters in the apartment had never paid before. He only spoke Tagalog, and David's wasn't adequate.  We asked for help, and a sister missionary volunteered.  It turned out that she had lived in the apartment before, and had, indeed, had to pay a garbage fee. Problem solved. Little bit bigger miracle #2. That afternoon we went to an apartment where the sisters had leaking sinks and had an astronomical water bill. We knew they had found another apartment, and we casually asked when they might set up an appointment for us to see it. They had finished their planning meeting early that day, and said we could go right then.  We saw the lovely apartment, and are in the process of putting in a contract. If you could understand the driving here, you would understand how big a deal it was, not to have to make another trip! Biggest miracle, #3.  The Lord blesses us every day, in ways large and small, all of which help us to feel His love for us and his young missionaries. The gospel is true!
