Lloyd got baptized this week!! It was SUCH a beautiful baptism! His family are all recent converts but they couldn't come.. Except for his little brother, who is the only one now of their family who is not baptized yet. He didn't get converted at the time of all of his family because he was really not on the right path, but now that Lloyd is home and became converted he has REALLY come around. It was so cute because when we ask him if he's going to church, he's like "if kuya (big brother) goes, I'll go." So he got to see all of it, especially when Lloyd bore his testimony! He talked about how he feels like a brand new person and he will continue in the church "hangtud sa hangtud" which basically means until forever ! It was so cool!
After the baptism, all the members were so welcoming to Lloyd and they even gave him a polo and a tie! My heart was so warm and I felt so much happiness. And the next day, Lloyd got confirmed and sustained in church. He also got the priesthood! It was one of the happiest Sundays of my mission. He looked so good in his polo and tie and he told us how happy he was. He may be one of my favorite conversions of my whole mission.
Sister Webber found out she's training this week! It was really weird because they told us like a week and a half before the transfer. But anyway, she's going to do really well and I'm super excited for her!! While she was gone to a training meeting in Tacloban, I got to have my first Philipina companion for a day! Her name is Sister Tierra and she is the sweetest, most humble person in the world. I love her so much! I want a Philipina companion. Haha.
We stayed at the STL's house during this time. I actually slept really well, but I woke up with something literally right next to my face. It's in the photo I uploaded. Look at the corner of the bed. 95 percent sure it was climbing on me during the night.
Okay that's all for this week! LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH!
