I No Speak No English!

Blog: So i don't have a new area but i have a new companion!!! Sister Lubrido is only my 3rd pilippina companion but my 7th all together comp. She is from ilo-ilo, and is really sweet! we get a long really well. we are co-Sr's, so we share the responsibilities, she is quick to laugh, humble, obedient, and kind. she has a strong testimony and we work well together. i feel like we are going to get a lot of work done this transfer!!! we have had a lot of fun just in the last 4days! i feel this is a great opportunity for me to work on and improve my Tagalog even more! last Sunday we had an American visitor from Utah come to our ward, i kept talking to him in tagalog! He doesn't know ANY tagalog at all it was soooo hard to speak straight english! what am i going to do when i go home!!!?!!! kawawa kayo na kailagan na makikinig sa akin. i also spoke in sacrament for the first time on my mission, in tagalog cuz i don't know how in english! then we had a stake fireside for missionary work and i was in charge of 'games' so i had them make 3 groups and grab hands of the opposite persons from them, you know, "the Knot" then you all get untangled and form a circle holding hands. after a ll that we all talked about team work and communication. then i shared Mosiah 18:9, 28 about choosing to help each other and share our testimonies. it went really well! :}

I love the Lord, I love this work and i know that we all have the Lords promise that if we ask him and seek his guidence, he will help us in the ways a righteousness and on the path to a happy life and an Eternal Life! (3Nephi 27:28-29)

Love you all,
-Sister Stephens
