Jacky in Marikina

Here are some pictures of Jack in his new area, Marikina, with Elder Lozano.

Jack forgot the keys as they left the apartment and had to wait for the landlord to bring the spare. But the spare was at the locksmith's getting an extra made. So they had to sit outside their apartment and wait.

We sent Jack a package around Valentine's Day that had peanut butter, some shirts from Baja, and other silly things like doritos and mike and ikes.

Jack had a dinner at bishop's house and he said he is rich. It was some of the greatest food he's had here, it was so delicious. They had what was called "Boodle Fight" which you just take a table and put banana leaves on it and then on top of the banana leaves you put rice and meat and veggies and then you bless it, and everyone eats until you are completely full. He just used the table as your plate and eat with your hands. It was so good. Afterwards bishop pulled out the Sprite and Coke and then some of the best cantaloupe he's ever had. It was a good night. Great way to end the week.

Jack and Elder Lozano received matching shirts from a member. I love how they say proud filipino on them. lol.

He said he's doing great and he seems to be getting the language down. He did say the area is hard. It's more of a struggle to find people to teach but he's hanging in there and doing his best.
