This is the Quilang Family, They are a family that has been
completed through the rescue efforts. The ward first contacted with the
Tatay on a one day mission youth activity. He was baptized in the 80's
and had been Less-Active for almost 20 years. Then the ward told the
missionaries about this man and his family. When we first visited him,
he was drunk and didn't want to hear much from us but on the second visit
we were able to teach him a lesson and commit him to come to church. To
our surprise he came the next Sunday! After that his 2 sons, JP and
Niko, started to listen in the lessons we were teaching. So we started
teaching the 3 of them and they were coming to church and
keeping their commitments, eventually JP and Niko were both baptized by
their Father, Oh yeah Tatay got over his drinking problem and now is a
Priesthood Holder.
After they were baptized we continued to visit
with them, and pretty soon Nanay and their youngest daughter Karen
started listening in, And after some time they were baptized as well!
Now they are a complete family, with their eyes set toward the Temple to
be sealed forever!
They are an awesome family, they are now being blessed for following the commandments and its only the beginning!
Its amazing to me that all this started because the ward followed the
example of the Savior by reaching out to the one lost sheep.
This work is true, and I love it.
