We found out yesterday from President Stephen Collins (Our Stake President) that we are now released as Country Directors of Humanitarian Services for the Philippines. We were serving out of the Philippines Quezon City Mission.
The past 15 months have been one of the greatest opportunities we have experienced in our lives. Being able to serve together in helping the poor and needy in the Philippines has changed us both.
We have left knowing that the Filipinos are loving, kind and accepting. We have never felt so needed as we have felt in serving them and our Father in Heaven.
We now move on in new challenges and opportunities.
Becky had her second chemo treatment and did well. The only challenge so far is the fatigue she is feeling.
Within the next few weeks we hope to find some normalcy as we adjust to change, the only constant in our lives.
Our dear friends, how often we have thought of you these past months. It was a privilege to get to know you in the MTC and we look forward to renewing that friendship in the relatively near future. We still have a ways to go, but time flies when you are busy. Ours have been such different missions in so many ways. It will be fun to swap stories. Love you, Wayne and LaRae John
