Humanitarian Relief Operation Brings Hope to Balut Island, Sarangani, Davao Occidental

“Service knows no distance when it is done with love.”

BALUT ISLAND, SARANGANI, DAVAO OCCIDENTAL—A spirit of compassion and service reached the shores of Balut Island on July 22, 2026, as the Humanitarian Services of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, led by Humanitarian Mindanao Coordinator Loehl Garnneth E. Gementiza, together with dedicated member volunteers, undertook a challenging 11–12-hour sea journey to deliver humanitarian assistance to families affected by the devastating 7.8-magnitude earthquake.

Despite the difficult maritime conditions brought by the Habagat, the volunteers remained committed to their mission of extending relief and support to communities in need. Their journey across the waters became a powerful testament that genuine service transcends distance, hardship, and circumstance.

The humanitarian initiative was made possible through the meaningful collaboration of Architect Sherillah Porza-Sawah, Regional Director of the National Commission for Muslim Filipinos (NCMF), and the Humanitarian Services of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. United by a shared commitment to uplift vulnerable communities, the partners worked together to bring immediate assistance and renewed hope to earthquake-affected families.

As part of the relief operation, 500 families in Barangay Batuganding received 500 food packs and 500 hygiene kits, providing essential support during their recovery journey. Beyond the material assistance, the outreach brought messages of compassion, encouragement, and solidarity to individuals and families facing the challenges of rebuilding their lives.

Although the journey was long and demanding, the gratitude, smiles, and resilience of the beneficiaries became a meaningful reminder that every sacrifice made in the service of others creates a lasting impact.

The humanitarian team continues to extend prayers and support for the continued recovery, strength, and well-being of all affected families. May they find comfort, peace, and renewed hope as they move forward toward healing and restoration.

🤍 Entering the House of the Lord, leaving with hearts forever changed. ✨

On June 27, the youth of the Digos Stake gathered for a sacred temple trip to the Davao, Philippines, temple. United in faith, they worshipped in the House of the Lord, strengthened their testimonies, and drew closer to Jesus Christ.

This meaningful experience reminded each of them of the joy found in keeping sacred covenants and walking the covenant path.

May the peace and blessings they received in the temple continue to guide and inspire them every day.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the leaders, parents, and everyone whose love, service, and sacrifices made this memorable trip possible.

"And that ye may more fully keep yourselves unspotted from the world, ye shall go to the house of prayer and offer up thy sacraments upon my holy day." — Doctrine and Covenants 59:9 ❤️

✨ A new chapter unfolded today in the coastal town of Malita, Davao Occidental. What began as a simple gathering soon became a moment of history for the local members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Around 150 faithful came together in a special conference, their hearts full of anticipation, to witness the Malita Branch officially become the Malita Ward.

The change in status was more than just a name—it marked growth, strength, and a deeper sense of belonging for the community of faith. With this milestone came another: the calling of the ward’s very first bishopric. Loreto M. Boc was set apart as Bishop, joined by Rovel G. Huerta and Arnold Q. Jimenea as his Counselors. Cleonante A. Capiluyan was also called to serve as Elders Quorum President in lieu of President Artemio Wata who has faithfully served as quorum president for almost 16 years already.

As the conference drew to a close, members ministered to eachother through shared food, laughter, and stories, weaving bonds of friendship and faith that will carry them forward. For Malita Ward, this day was more than an organizational change—it was a beacon of hope, a reminder that faith continues to grow, and that light shines brightest when shared together.

Each ward and branch in the Digos Stake united in gratitude and reverence to honor the sacred calling of mothers. 🤍

In a world that constantly changes, the influence of a righteous mother remains one of heaven’s greatest gifts. As declared in The Family: A Proclamation to the World, mothers are entrusted with the divine responsibility to nurture souls, strengthen families, and create homes centered on faith in Jesus Christ.

Today, we pay tribute to the mothers and grandmothers and loving mother figures whose quiet sacrifices, fervent prayers, gentle hands, and Christlike love become a guiding light for generations. Their unseen acts of service echo in eternity, shaping hearts, building testimonies, and drawing families closer to the Savior. ✨

May we always remember that behind many faithful lives is a mother who knelt in prayer, served with love, and endured with unwavering faith.
