If you think the Pacific Northwest has rain then we all need to think again. As you can see by thi small phonto we have our own waterfalls at the Mission Office. Every afternoon the rain begins and goes until it feels like it has soaked everything. I can better understand Noah story of the rains inundating the world by being here. The nice part is that when it rains it cools down here in Baguio, in the lowlands not so much. It just addes to the humidity. Fortunately we only go to the lowlands a few times a week.

Here is a view of the City of Baguio from the top of one of the mountains where the SM Mall is located. They have balconies on each side of the Mall so you can get a beautiful glimpse of the city. This view is of Burnham Park similar to the concept of central park in New York City only not as large. They have a lake which you can see here where small boats go our for an afternoon relazation until it rains.

We love being here and associating with many wonderful people. They have much love in their hearts and a very friendly demeanor. It is a joy!

This is the mission office looking out our window. This is where we go each day to support the missionary efforts in the Baguio Mission of the church.


This is our apartment building. The car you see is the one we use to get around Baguio. the most challenging driving I have ever experienced. Our apartment is the one above the car. The two windows on the far right is our living room and bedroom. We have to sit on our beds to get internet access. We have the WIFI setup in the mission office window. We are learning and growing each day and getting to know the people in Baguio. This is a great experience.

As we go out our packing place we see a shanty where a single man lives with a light bulb as his only light at night. Next to modern you have poverty





This is a look down the steep hill to our apartment building.
