Elder Cal Robertson's Mission

Marami mga pasayan sa dagat Good morning! Magandang umaga sa inyo lahat! I'm getting transferred back down to Leyte! I will have the privilege of training as well which I am very excited for. There will be many baptisms here this upcoming month of March. I feel just as the prophet Alma of the Book of Mormon said... Alma 26:..2 And now, I ask, what great blessings has he bestowed upon us? Can ye tell? 3 Behold, I answer for you; for our brethren, the Lamanites, were in darkness, yea, even in the darkest abyss, but behold, how many of them are brought to behold the marvelous light of God! And this is the blessing which hath been bestowed upon us, that we have been made instruments in the hands of God to bring about this great work. I know through our willingness the Lord will make us able, even though we are not capable of much. As the Lord says to us, we cannot bear all things now... but we can do all the Lord has asked us to do, as He says in 1 Nephi 3:7...   I want to also sh...

Mga kapait sa pananampalataya! Patuloy pamamagitan sa inyo mga sulay at sa Dios mag bahala sa inyo! Hello everybody! I have learned so much this week. I wish you all could be here with me learning all the things I'm learning too! I realize now why people say it's the best and the hardest, and why people grow much on the mission. To be honest, sadly, I know now the mission doesn't change me or anyone, no one or thing can change me. But I have the responsibility to change myself. The mission just thrives with and abundantly gives so many Opportunities to Grow and Change to become like our Savior! I heard earlier "don't die like a man, live like a decent person". Or in other words, don't just be willing to die for Christ's sake. Be even stronger and LIVE FOR CHRIST's sake. I love The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It is truly His kingdom on earth. Nothing in this world will last except our efforts to Build up the Lords Kingdom here on Ea...

 Halo halo Hello brothers and sisters! This week was full of Miracles! We found many people that wanted to hear the gospel of Jesus Christ. And we got to go to zone conference with Elder Wong of the Seventy joining us, just like the 70 back in Jesus' time, I am grateful He has called seventy for our day as well. Elder Wong is also part of the presidency of Philippines area. He taught many important principles and we are now going to apply everything we learned! Especially making treats and then putting notes on them saying how we miss the people that haven't come to church in a while. We really want them to feel our love for them and also so they will feel more importantly God's love. He also promised a sister that she could have 30 baptisms before she went home in the 5 months she has left. I am excited because I turned to my companion when he said that to her and said, I have 5 months left, I'm doing that too. And so we are doing everything we can to find and teach an...

Mabuhay. Pesensya po sa akin mga kapatid nga nakalimut ako pag padala ng email sa nuong semana caso mayada na yana Good morning Philippines and good afternoon America! This week was interesting. I found the biggest spider so far on my mission and my companion was sick so that was fun. My companion and the other companionship here was sick. Throwing up and stomach pains. Except me, just studying. And reading the Saints book! It's great. I have seen the hand of the Lord in that way as my blessing says multiple times of blessing me with health and strength as I read the scriptures and strive to be close to the Lord.  I have been contemplating the goodness of God as I have been thinking about all the blessings the Lord has given us. I have the amazing opportunity of being a servant of Christ Himself, sharing the most important message and plan to His children here. My testimony in our Savior Jesus Christ has exponentially grown as I see Him work through us each day. The fact we get to ...
