Today was a rest day and a chance to meet up with some old friends (from hawaii) who happened to be in the Philippines. Brad & Liz Barret and their three kids are in the PI for a month while Brad had some eye surgery over here. About 10 months ago, they left the US to be missionaries in Cambodia. It was really inspiring for us to see this young couple, with three small kids, step out in faith, trusting God and following Him to a foreign culture for God's purpose. Their boldness really touched our hearts, and we feel compelled to pray about moving to the Philippines earlier than our projected date of July 2011.

Tomorrow we decided to take the bus to Talaan (Sariaya) a day earlier, in order to spend a full day with 3G Ministries and the outreaches that they'll be doing on Saturday.

Please pray for a safe bus ride up there (3-5 hrs). We may not have internet connection while we are up there, so there might be a few days without a blog update.
