The start of our day was at 6:45 with appointments at the High School at 8. We had a spread at the Aungons with Corn Flakes, toast, banannas and of course rice. The bananas are wonderful. I mean they are wonderful. They are small and sweet. I eat them all the time. Did I say they are wonderful.
Laurie and I split up at the school and spoke in separate rooms to cover more opportunities. The students were attentive, we answsered questions, explored the similarities between Baptists and Catholics and talked about culture. I used my experience attending mass the day before to bridge a gap. We also had a prayer with them and invited them to speak later with pastor Ponaongon who is also the chaplain of the school and president of the parent teacher association.
We had Korean food near the mall at lunch and Laurie had kemshi for the first time. You know, pickeled and fermented cabbage. We took Rachel and another girl from the Agdao church with us. They were Laurie's fellow evangelists. We went to the mall to purchase phone cards for our cell phones. My number is 639297140016 and Lauries is 639053267506 you can reach us at any time but it is best that you call from 8-10 a.m. that is 9-11 p.m. here.

The afternoon was at the school and then shopping for a little while and then a trip to Jack's Ridge to see a panaoramic view of the city. It has been a full day.
