Magandang tanghali po!
We had an amazing baptism this week of a sister and her daughter and on the 26th the brother will be baptized. It is so happy to bring families to the waters of baptism and to know that someday they will have the chance to be sealed together for time and all eternity! Sister Leonisa is so amazing. She truly has changed because of hearing about the Gospel. She used to be angry often and gossip about her neighbors almost every time we went over there. Now, she is positive and recognizes the Spirit helping her to love everyone! She now shares the most powerful experiences in our lessons and is truly closer to Christ and closer to reaching her divine potential. Sister Rheysa, the daughter, is the sweetest, cutest girl who reminds me of my cousin Libby! Oh how I love them so much.

This week was interesting, how it always is in the mission field! I got to make a drunk man sign a paper to his family that he'll never drink again, we washed laundry for people on three different days, and of course I received many shout outs for my whiteness... like seriously they'll just yell to me from across town "you're white!"
Transfer week but everything is staying the same for us, but Sister Doney and Sister Cabanilla (our housemates) are now our sister training leaders! FUN!
I love you all. Keep up the good deeds and keep up the kind words!!!!
Sister Stewart
