Full of interesting history, wondrous sights and sounds and good food. Hopefully our good times will continue to roll. Frankly, the main reason we came here was to…

Our Last Week!
I can’t believe I just typed this! Where did 19 months go? Well, I was looking through a lot of our pictures to prepare for our devotional talks and I realized we have done a whole lot of living in those 19 months. We have had experiences we never thought we would have. Seen wonderful…

Lots of Lasts and Good-byes!
Getting ready to leave is bittersweet- hard and yet joyous to spend time with special people here. We did have one last school turnover mixed in with all of the good-bye lunches and dinners. On Monday, we had a turnover of donation for two annex schools in Tondo. We have been working on this one…

In With the New
This week was dominated by the arrival of three new humanitarian couples. Just like 19 months ago when there were three of us arriving. Kenneth (our supervisor) asked us to drive to the airport and meet the couples and take back our replacements, the Gardners. I think they will do great. Everyone, actually has great…

Farewell Palawan!
Such a sad title! We had a wonderful last visit to Palawan, our favorite paradisiacal island that just happens to be in our area. We had several reasons to spend a few days there. First of all, we had two school turnovers and another school to visit where we donated materials so they could rebuild…

My Plan
This week was mostly dominated by the My Plan Conference. This is for recently returned Filipino missionaries with the purpose of helping them to figure out life after their mission. This isn’t done anywhere else in the world, and it seems to be very helpful to the RMs here. They hold this up in the…

Tab Choir!

An Epic Week!!!
Truly, this week was beyond amazing. We had an interesting mix of things, which you will read about. It is almost like we could just go home after this week….but we actually still have many things to take care of before that happens. So let’s begin the rehash! BOHOL: It was Sean’s turn to come…

Let’s Get Tribal
I am way behind in getting this past week’s blog out. It’s almost time to post the blog for this week! In fact, I wasn’t even going to write about last week, then decided I needed to document a few things. It isn’t every day you get to meet the head tribal leader of the…
We are the Huffs!
After being retired for three years – remodeling our house, living through COVID, traveling around the country to see our children and grandchildren – we decided it was time to do something truly meaningful and bigger than self. We’ve long wanted to serve a mission together for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. On June 21, 2022, we received our call to serve as humanitarian missionaries in the Philippines. On August 22, our mission began at the Missionary Training Center in Provo, Utah. On September 4, we arrived in the Philippines. We look forward to sharing our adventure over the next 18 months.
