Panglao Island


Panglao Island is connected to Bohol by two bridges. It is a small island. The southern part has beautiful beaches and many Beach Resorts with tourist.  We have two churches on Panglao one on each end of the island

We love this family. Their home is lovely and very nice.

Salli and Franco have two other children. We gave them the Book of Mormon Scripture stories for their family. They are not able to be baptized yet as they are not married. It cost quite a bit of money to get married as the fees and requirements are hard for some families to come up with. They are trying to save the money to get married.

Went to the Dauis activity out at Alona Beach. the mayor let us use her beach resort for free as she is very fond of the church. The church gave her friend a wheel chair to get around in and she is very appreciative of the help the church gave her friend. If you every want to go to the Philippines this would be a great place to come.

It was starting to get dark so the lighting isn't very good




This is a wonderful family. In fact we haven't met any who are not wonderful. They live near the water. The father is a fisherman but has been sick for a while. We were worried about walking on their flooring as it didn't look very strong. But it held our weight and the slats and the breeze from the window kept the home cool and felt really good.




View from the window. Looking out towards Bohol Island. The two islands are very close as you can see from this picture.
