In regards to visiting the kids I sponsor in the Philippines! I did go and I am already finding ways to go again. I still need to dunk a basketball for Angelo in Davao with 2 hands and Reneboy from Zamboanga Sibugay wants me to visit his place. So I am hoping to visit once I can get my dunk for Angelo. Matthew 6:33 "But seek first His Kingdom and His righteousness and all these things will be given to you as well." I might think this would not be possible but I have already met all of them, so the 2nd trip maybe we can eat lots and lots of seafood, I think on a hungry day I could eat over 100 shrimp! Either way thanks for the encouragement to visit Michelle! Michelle thanks for telling me “You should go!” In regards to visiting the kids I sponsor in the Philippines!
