Hello Family and Friends!

This week has been great!!!! On of our investigators will be interviewed for baptism tomorrow!! We are so excited!!!!! He really is ready! Please everyone pray for Tatay Manuel Domingo!!! Please!!!

and Then Sister Joy is just great!! She is really progressing!!! She promised she will wear a skirt to church this coming Sunday!!!! :) It's really hard for her to change because she has been like that her whole life! But I know that Only Jesus Christ and his gospel can literally change a persons character and change their heart!! She is making some really big changes in her life and it is really hard for her!! so everyone keep praying for her! :)

Okay this last week we meet a boy name John.. but everyone calls him Wan! Well he is deaf! I have forgotten a lot of sign language.. but I remembered enough to be able to talk to him for a minute and invite him to church! ... and guess what?? He came to church yesterday! I really didn't think he would come because we just met him for like one second! but he came!! We are going to start teaching him with his family on Wednesday!!!! :) I am so excited...but my sign language is kind of rusty!!! If anyone can do me the biggest favor in the whole world and send me like videos or even emails about sign language so that we can teach him the Restoration of the gospel.. that would be so great!!!!! Please please please!!!!!! This is for the work of salvation!!! Please send me stuff!!! or even if someone could get me Mrs. Roos email!! She is the sign languge teacher at the high school! :) Please and thank you!!!! 

okay well I am running out of time! but I promise I will write more next week! I love you all!!!! LOVE SISTER FREEMAN!!!! :)

so we had Zone Training this last week and it was a great opportunity  to learn and help us become more effective missionary. As well as Conference this week was really touching! I noticed that so many talks were about families. I am praying that this is the time we can really start finding families to teach and help them receive the eternal gifts from God. But one talk that stood out to me the most was the talk by Henery B. Eyering about the law of the Fast! That really hit me how important that we should care for the poor through our fast offerings. I also realized how much when I teach our investigators about the fast...how much more I need to focus on the service and charity they are showing when they pay their fast offering!  Well I actually loved all of the talks actually! So i was so grateful for everything that I learned this last weekend!

I know that we have a living prophet, Thomas S. Monson!! and I was so sad to see that people are losing their faith and did not sustain him!!!! I know that he was called of God to guide us in these Latter Days!!! I know that his apostals are also instruments in Gods hands!! I know that if we have faith in God and his commandments.. we will Follow His Prophets and apostals and I KNOW that we will receive eternal blessings!!!! The world is getting so wicked now and we need to all hold our heads up high and press forward in our faith!!! This is the true gospel... SO LIVE IT!!!!!!

I'm sorry I don't have much to write this week! But I hope you all will go back and read or listen to the talks that were in this general conference... you will feel the spirit and find guidance in your life!!!

MAHAL NA MAHAL KO KAYO!!!!

Love, Sister Freeman

So this week has been with training! I love going back to the basics, it's like a refreshment! Well my Anak is doing great with adjusting to missionary life! She is a really hard worker and she loves talking to people! We have been so blessed with finding a family to teach! They are really progressing and they promised to go to church this Sunday as a whole family!!!! We are so excited! but the only fall back to them being baptized is that they are not married! They have been together for 18 years and they are just waiting for papers to get signed before they get married because the girls parents are actually in America! But they are so awesome and we are just praying the these papers will be signed faster!

We had one sad thing happen this week! Three of our really progressing investigators, they are all brother and sisters, just moved away! We are sad because we won't be able to be there when they get baptized! But we are praying that the missionaries that receive them, will really take care of them! 

And then one more exciting news!!! We were teaching One person that is gay and one person that is a Lesbian. We were scared at first to teach them The Law of Chastity, because we didn't want to offend them in anyway! So we made a really amazing lesson plan with inspired questions and everything! Well when we taught them The Law of Chastity.. they took it really well and they said that they want to change so that one day they can start a family and they said that they love God more then themselves so that they are willing to obey this commandment! We promised the blessings that they will receive and the spirit was so strong!!! I know that this gospel is true and really does change lives! I know that this law of Chastity is for us to keep our selfs pure in thought and words and our actions! I am so grateful for the miracles that I have been apart of here on the mission! I am so grateful for this opportunity to see people and the whole life change because of the Gospel of Jesus Christ!!!! I LOVE BEING A MISSIONARY!!!!!!!! I never want to go home!!!!!!!!!!

This is the true gospel.....LIVE IT!!!!!! :)

 

Mahal na mahal ko kayo!! Ingat po kayo lagi!
