My Picture Day-Rice Delivery Enjoying God’s CreationsteemCreated with Sketch.

One of the joys of being a missionary is when I can deliver some rice to families who really need a helping hand. These are hard working people in a country where things come hard at times.

This morning I was out delivering some rice, but also enjoying the people, meeting new friends and seeing the Beauty of Mindanao Philippines along the way.

My new friend Tom Tom

A very friendly little boy.
It was very early when I started out so I got to see the sunrise. This is a unique vantage point for sunrises as the sun reflects in the Iligan Bay allowing for some special effects for the photographer.

One place I was able to deliver some rice was this place called the Happy House. I believe throughout the entire organization they have around 300 mouths to feed. This location houses around 25 people, including foreign missionaries, single mothers with their children and a few local pastors. I try to bring them some rice every month.

My second delivery spot for the day. A family of 4 lives in this small place. No photos of the family or rice delivery as I am not out to embarrass people in any way.

After unloading 50 kilos of rice, I parked my bike and hiked some and enjoyed the incredible beauty of this mountainous area of Misamis Occidental.

Then I went to one of my favorite serene places to pray.
