Hey guys!!!
Ok so sorry there was no email last week, I know thats all of your favorite part of your whole week, getting my emails … haha joking, but it was because we had an awesome mission activity for achieving our goals!!! It was sooo fun and I got to see all my best friends from the mission like Sister Leakehe, Sister Mack, Sister Garrett, Sister Lariosa, Sister Ila, Sister Paciano, and Sister Hess … and we got to play basketball (yayy!) volleyball, ultimate frisbee, and play with water balloons! 188 missionaries + waterballoons = best day ever haha. Talk about a good week.
But in other news, the work here is just amazing! I thought I would miss Lubao for the rest of my mission (which I still do haha) but this area in Calapacuan in the bomb! The people are so prepared here and God is just showering us with blessings and miracles. So last week, Saricris and Tommy got baptized!!!!! It was amazing and they are both so strong now in the church. Saricris comes and works with us everyday because she wants us to teach everyone in her town so they can enjoy the blessings of the gospel too. Im literally amazed by her faith and testimony everyday. She told me yesterday that she is going on a mission in a year or 2! Hearing things like that just make all the hardships of your mission melt away and just makes everything worth it. We also took her last Saturday to the Relief Society Broadcast and she told me she had never felt the spirit so strong. She started crying when she saw Thomas S. Monson on the screen and kept elbowing me saying "look! its the Prophet!" haha she is soooo cute. I told her we have General Conference next week where we get to listen to the prophet again but its going to be broadcasted all the way in Olongapo so its pretty expensive to get their for them. She just smiled and said "well I guess that just means I need to work everyday so I can earn the money to go!" I just love this girl haha.
Hajie (Adela's son) and Mhae are doing great too! their baptism is on April 19th and they are just stoked! Mhae told me yesterday she wishes it was tomorrow haha. Hajie (hes 23) is literally one the smartest people I’ve ever taught. I'm pretty sure he could teach us the lessons haha. When we first met him, he was SO shy and could barely look us in the eye, but now we are besties and he always asks when we are coming back and what he should study in the Book of Mormon for the next lesson. I just love the kid haha. what else, what else... Me and sister Burt are just lov'n life repp'n america, and laughing wherever we go. Sometime i wonder if we have too much fun haha but dont worry we are exactly obedient and just enjoy the work we do. I LOVE MISSIONARY WORK!!!! nothing better. welp, I gotta go but I love you alllllll!!! be good and stay safe! Ingat kayo!
Love
Sister Lowe
