New Companion!

blog:so I can already tell this transfer is going to be super hard, I have a Filipina campanion! Sister Villafuerte, she is very hard working but a little bossy and definitely is annoyed that I a newbie, who doesn't even know the language and can barely talk to people, has to show her around. I'm the only American companion that she has ever had, so naturally we aren't getting along 100% yet but it's only our first week, I'm sure we'll work it out. I just wish I could speak tagalog better!

the different ways my name is said: STEFANS, STEP-HENS, STEP-HEN, STEFEN, STEBEN, STEBHEN, and finally the closest, STEBENS!!!

Blog: The only cool thing that happened this week is we had a baptism for Tatay Rogilio. He has been talking to missionaries since March and he finally decided to be baptised. He has a strong testimony and now we are all praying hard that his wife will be baptised too, so pray for Nanay Melita. I got some good clean dirt and am gonna start planting some potted herbs! I'm exited!!!! Well till next time!

Shout out to: Mom, Dad, Daniel, Nora (finally got some of your letters!!!), and to Joseph and Julia for getting engaged!!!! yaya!!!!
