On the first day, I felt tired in the morning as we just arrived in Manila, but at the same time I was excited. On the second day, we arrived at Legaspi and people in the church greeted us. Then we were taken to the church by the people. The people were friendly and very welcoming. I was sad to see that the church was affected by the typhoon. That night we went to the crusade. There we watched half of the “Passion of the Christ” and prayed for people. All the stress and waiting outside in the hot weather was made worthwhile to see people coming closer to God. The next day, we went to a squatter area of Legaspi. There I did my testimony and prayed for the people we visited. My testimony made someone cry. Then afterwards the team joined together after visiting areas and we did the puppets. That afternoon we went to an outreach and there I did my testimony again. That night we finished the crusade by finishing off the “Passion of the Christ” and yet again we prayed for people. On Saturday, we went to a place called Bulla where we did our song item and we got involved in the church’s activities. On Sunday, we had our first service but Tuan, Jenny and I went to a different church where I said my story and then we did the worship. That afternoon was used to practise for the “Youth Camp” fundraiser on Monday. Ate Geraldine involved us in the church’s play. That night we had an awesome time at the youth service. Everyone had so much joy. Also Tuan, Jesse and Kuya Ray lifted me up and I crowd surfed. Everyone in the team was having fun and jumping around to the music. I had the funniest night. Then on that Monday we it was a rest day for use. So some of the group went shopping and the others are at a eye test place. So I went shopping to just get stiff I needed so at 4;00 pm. We went back to the church and got ready to go to sleep and yeah.
On Tuesday we went to Sanantonio and Bigaa so at Sanantonio we went to a house and I had to give my testimony and then we prayed then we went to a restaurant and so we ate there and went back to the church and rest and then we went to Bigaa and there and I had to give my testimony again so when I finish giving my testimony I went out side and started to sing with the children and then Liz said here story about a pig and a monkey Jesse was the pig and I we the monkey then it was 5:30 pm and we had a big problem Kathy had to pray and she was one of the guy who had to do the pupas so Jesse had to do the doit for her and then we went out to back to the church and went to sleep
