My Last Conference

Written by: Rebekah

Conference is a great time for missionaries to get together and share their stories.  It is always amazing to hear what God is doing in the Philippines not only through our family, but through many other families.  This is also a time when my family and I get to see friends who we see only once a year.  This year, my siblings were able to be part of the kids’ program.  They had a lot of fun participating in the games, songs, and lessons.  I got to help with the little kids and other miscellaneous jobs.  It was amazing to get to know so many kids just by helping.  The afternoons were often filled with soccer, swimming, games, and lots more fun.   Every night, missionaries shared what God has been doing in their locations in the Philippines. I also got to share the story of my life one of those nights.  This was the last conference for me before I head back to the States next year.  I am thankful to have seen everyone one last time.
