Dear Family and Friends!

This week has been really good! I had a great opportunity to go on exchanges with Sister Nuku! She is from New Zealand! She is so kind and loving to everyone around her! And she is SOOOO humble! I really admire her for that! She is a hard worker and willing to apply everything that she learns! I really had a great time with her!

This last week we even had our Zone Conference! I really learned a lot! I learned how the Holy Ghost can better work with us as missionaries and with our investigators! As we have applied what we learned… we have seen a big difference in our teaching skills and also in our investigators and less active members! We have seen the Holy Ghost touch their hearts! This has been a really great week! We even met a Pastor of another church and he was so nice and willing to let us teach him! We weren’t able to teach him the first time because he was gone…. But we taught his wife and she was really interested and she accepted the baptismal goal date! We still haven’t taught him yet because he is always busy! But he is so nice and really willing to be taught! So we will see how this goes! He is still really young! He is maybe only 30! So we will go back to him and his wife this week!

Well this last weekend was our Stake Conference! Elder Manuel Agustin from the quorum of the seventy came and spoke in the Adult session and on the Sunday session! He has so bold! I really love him! His talks were amazing! He had a power point and showed a little video! I was so impressed with the talks and his topics! He talked about Sunday Delight! I really learned so much also about the Atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ! And I also learned about fasting! He showed us in scientific ways about fasting and that it is scientifically proved that we can only go 24 hours of fasting before we lose energy! So our body will give us energy during our fasting but only for 24 hours! So I know that God really does know our bodies because he created us and so we can all fast for the appropriate time that was given to us! And just how sacred fasting is and we should always have a purpose with our fast!

Well on the Sunday session! Our mission President talked! And His whole talk was centered on my experience a few weeks ago! We I was really sick and I was really scared because of how my body was reacting to the medicine! So he shared that story with the whole stake and how I was helped by so many people and how fast they reacted to help me in that scary situation! And He applied it to how we have so many Less Active members that are in need of help and that how we need to react right away and help them in every way that we can! Well it was a really good talk! Even though my head was down and my face was going red because I was so embarrassed! Haha but it’s okay because most of them didn’t understand because it was all in English! But for the ones that did understand were asking if I was okay! But lets just say that the whole Stake now knows my name! haha

Well we are so excited because this week we will have a baptism! Sister Rinalin Cainta!!!! And also we will have a CHURCH TOUR!!! We have been planning this Church Tour for way over a month! And it is finally happening this Saturday at 6:30pm! We have been giving out invitations to everyone we talk to and also the members are giving invitations to their friends and neighbors! We are so excited because we take them on a tour of the church and then at the end we will all meet in the cultural hall and we will show the restoration video and hand out pamphlets to the people that come! So this should be a great way to receive referrals and find new investigators! So next week I will let you know how everything went!

Well I love you all so much! I am so grateful to be a full-time missionary!!!!! This is the best Job in the whole world!! I never want to come home! J

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

Love,

Sister Freeman
