HELLO BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE OF THE WORLD!!
I'm a missionary of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. I have the opportunity to share some of the most precious principles that I know are true to people that I loved before I even met them. God loves us, we are literally His children. Jesus Christ suffered and died not only for our sins but for our hardships. He knows everything we feel because He felt it before. Even though He died on the cross, He lives again! And because of that, we will too!
I know with all of my heart that the things I share everyday are true. I have every inch of my testimony because Heavenly Father gave it to me. He gave me my faith, my strength, my life. EVERYTHING. He gave me His Son. And for that reason, I am here. I'm here in the Philippines, in a mentally, emotionally, and physically demanding atmosphere that is also the happiest thing I have ever been a part of. I'm here because I get to love people the way that my Savior loves me. 
Whatever we go through, the Savior is right there. Our Father is listening. He is proud of us, even for the small things we do. So let's keep going:)

Magandang hapon po!!! Si Sister Stewart po ito. Sorry it's been a while! 
According to the people on the streets in the Philippines, America is at war and we are lucky to be here where we are safe.  Glad I can call home and get the truth.  HaHa
This week my companion and I got to go to the temple! How amazing is that?! I love the temple so much. 
We have a baptism this next Saturday so let me tell you about her:
Her name is TinTin (Christine) and she is 13 years old. She's super smart and pretty and it's pretty much like teaching a member when we teach her. She had been baptized before but her records couldn't be found, so we get to reteach her and rebaptize her this Saturday!:) I wonder if the people I teach know how much I love them...
I wonder if you guys know how much I love YOU!!!!
