Week 54

Pictures from last week...




Gave blood this week. heads up im O+ so if you need some blood im your man


Hello,

Well transfer day was this morning and sad to say Elder Toldanes was transferred. My new companion is Elder Mendioro. 

However this week i had a really cool experience. I had the chance to be on exchanges with Elder Egli. We were out visiting people and telling them that he was transferring and we decided to stop at one of his recent converts house. When we went in she sat us down and started to tell us about how her grand daughter was a premature baby. She was born at 7 months and now has been alive almost a month. However just earlier that day something had gone wrong and they need blood donated to the baby. They had searched all over cavite and the closest place they could find was a good 2 hours away and between the money they had to pay for fair and the money they had to pay for the blood they just didnt have enough. At this moment i felt so sad for this family. They had no place to get blood for this little baby and even if they found some blood they couldnt afford it. At this point though I felt a really strong impression to ask to see the babys blood request. So the mother went and got the papers and handed them to me. As much as i know about hospitals and doctor stuff i knew enough that the blood she needed is O+. Elder Egli and I read it at the same time and just looked up at the grand mother and smiled. She asked us why we were smiling and I just looked at her and said Nay my blood type is O+ I will gladly donate blood for her. She immediately started crying and was so grateful. So elder egli and I were able to go to the blood bank again that night. Took awhile of convincing because i just gave blood the other week but i was able to give just the right amount for the baby and the family paid absolutely nothing. It was such an amazing experience and I felt so much happiness. The baby recieved the blood it needed and last i heard earlier this morning the baby is doing better then ever and is looking to be released from the hospital soon. Its truly amazing the miracles God can work. 

Thank you so much for all the love and support. I love you all lots
