Cebu is calling my name


Before I got my call, EVERYONE would ask me where I wanted to go or where I thought I would go on my mission. My answer was always, "I don't care...I just want to GO!" I've said before how shocked I was when I opened my call and saw I would be going to Cebu, Philippines. But how now, I can't imagine myself serving ANYWHERE else. It's crazy how that happens...hard to explain! Sometimes I find myself laughing at the most normal things because I can't believe I am actually going to the Philippines in 110 days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! eeeeeeeeek SOOOO excited!!!

Here are a few of the MANY reasons why Cebu is calling my name.....

The markets with yummy fruits, vegetables, and fish...

Because I'll get to go inside the beautiful Cebu City Temple...

I'll get to teach these beautiful people and learn and thrive in their culture...






I get to learn the wonderful language of CEBUANO!!

  1. I absolutely love this!! I look forward to every one of these things!! Ahhh, and all of those kids are so cute! I can't wait to be there already! I just loved what that sister missionary said about the kids on the streets being so happy, yet so poor. I can't wait!
