I
figure that this title today is very relevant to life right now. We are already
starting to celebrate Christmas here and we sing Christmas songs in church and
stuff... People here are very christian and sure do love their holidays!
Also MC Lagado entered
the waters of baptism this week. Through her trials and much effort on her part
she has learned for herself that the Book of Mormon is true, and that we have a
living prophet here on the earth today. She knows with no doubt that Christ’s
original and true church has been restored to the earth through the power of
god to a prophet, named Joseph Smith.
She is awesome.
She now has not only
been baptized by someone holding authority (She was a member of the catholic
church previously) but she has been baptized by immersion, just like our lord
Jesus Christ. She has also been given the Gift of the Holy Spirit and is now entitled help from God, through that gift, every moment of her life.
This Baptism is pretty
much the highlight of my life, so I hope that you can all feel the joy I feel
through these words in this email.
That's pretty much all
I want to say about this last week. I was sick, it was miserable, and yeah it
pretty much just sucked until the baptism. We did have Zone Conference though
and that was awesome! Me and some of the sister's sang a song titled “A window
to his love”. It was awesome maybe you can find it on youtube or
something!
(here is a link to the song put together with pictures. Hopefully it will work for you)

I'm including a
picture of me sister Baird, sister Harris, and sister Pitman. We are the Tayabas
sisters... and everyone in Tayabas keeps mixing up who is who... can you guess
why???
Anywho. I love you
all! And I’m excited to start this next week. Sister Harris is working with me
and Baird this week until Thursday when I will get my new companion. I don't know who yet! But I
know she will be awesome! Wish me luck! And if anyone has some good advice on
training that'd be great! I don't even completely know what I’m doing myself
and sure don't know tagalog yet! But I’ll be fine as I rely on the strength of
the lord.
Have a great week
friends and fam! I'm going to SM today so I’m gonna buy me some American
chocolate... that will make me very very happy and start out this awesome week
right!
Love, Sister Hellewell
