News from The Philippines

  • Hey Mom and Dad. things are going really good here. We were supposed to have a baptism last week, but he smoked so we had to push it back til the 17 of Jan. The people must go to church, obey the word of wisdom and law of chastity for 4 weeks before getting babtised so its really hard but when you do get somebody they are most likely going to stay active their entire life so that is a good thing.
  • It has been really cold like down to 60 degrees. Crazy that I'm saying that is cold huh.
  • I just love my companion, he is awesome and I have learned alot about the gospel from him. He is a convert of 2 years and has a testimony like nothing else. It is amazing. we are studying in Preach My Gospel the Christlike attributes. Knowledge and Faith link together it is so amazing. You should study it.
  • Lately when I think it is in Tagolog or at least a little of it is. It scares me because I speak english, but that is the spirit helping me. I can speak a lot better now, it is alot of fun, and I have made relationships like nothing else it so so awesome. They are my family away from home. But I miss you guys so much. But I'm happy to be here serving the Lord. I have learned alot about myself and what is truly important.
  • I just wanted to say that I love you guys so much. I pray for you guys everyday and I know that God answers my prayers. Always look for someone that you can share the gospel with. I love you.
  • Oh just to let you know I'm officially Filippino now, I ate bolut the other day. Thats another story for next time. Love you guys tons, and tons. Elder Loveless
