Happy Mother's Day!!!
Just a quick shout-out to all of the
mothers and women in my life who have blessed me so much and taught me to walk
in the ways of truth. Thanks so much for your inspiring examples and for
teaching me to follow Jesus Christ. I hope to emulate you and develop the love
that you have:) Especially you, Mom!! Every time I think of you, I think of the
mother's of the stripling warriors. Alma 56:47-48 Thank you for raising me the
way you did and continue to do:)
This week was transfer week and it
was CRAZY!! Thank heavens Sister Pau is my companion!! She is so full of life
and spunk and has such a positive attitude!! If it wasn't for her, I probably
would've been a wee bit overwhelmed with everything we had going on!!
On Friday, Sister Osumo and I got to
give training to the other STLs which was super fun! We have an AMAZING group
of sisters! We then got to attend MLC and then met with President and Sister
Revillo to plan for our Sister's Conference that is coming up this Wednesday.
It is going to be sooo fun!!
Sister Pau and I got to work in our
area ALLLLL day on Sunday! Sister Maricel worked with us as well and it was
great! We found 2 new investigators! As we were talking to one of them, Erwin,
he said that he knew a little bit about Mormons. He then went onto say,
"Naniniwala kayo sa sports, di ba?" Translated as, "You believe
in sports, right?" Uhhhh... Noo... It was so funny!! He then went onto
explain that all of the chapels here in the Philippines have basketball courts
outside, so he thought that we believed in playing sports... Oh it was so
funny!!
This past week, we were not able to
visit the Gimena Family and they didn't come to church yesterday. We went to
visit them and they were really sad that they chose not to come. They had lost
their desire a little bit to continue, but as we taught them yesterday, their
desire came back one-hundred fold, and they are determined to be baptized as a
family. We taught about eternal families and the Spirit really touched their
hearts. I know they will be baptized.
Sister Glory, the LA we found also
came to church yesterday and had an AMAZING time!! Please pray for her husband
that we can teach them! I can just see them as a forever family!!! Ahh, they
are the cutest!!
I love you all!! Take care and I
will talk to you soon!!
Sister Anderson
