A Lovely family baptized!

Hey my family that i love so dearly :)
Hows things, Hows everything going. In Ukraine that's really scary for my sister!! Will she be alright Dad??
This week has gone so so fast!! So fast!! Me and my companion have been really busy here in Stop- alginado!!

The other day, I went to have some breakfast and ants had got into it.  I did not want to throw away my cereal so I got out the sieve and sieved out the ants.  Here's a picture.  I won't give in to the ants.  I won't.
We had our baptisms with the Bulleno family!! Thy are so special and it was a pleasure to witness their baptisms!! The son John-mar baptized his whole family. Jennecel , Mary- joy,sister Josephine and Brother Sonny!! Their testimonies after were so sweet!!
One thing that was funny, I showed a picture of our family,( the photo that Nopera took) and while I was showing them, they all pointed to Dad and said, Pinoy siya??? hahah that was a really funny moment!! pinoy siya means, is he a phillipino? haha because dad's so black in the photos. They are so funny here.
In my  personal study:
I have been reading the account in Alma when Alma the younger is talking to his sons, Helaman, Shiblon and Corianton!! The book of Alma is so interesting i cannot put it down!! 

One thing i like in there is the love Alma has for his sons!! One thing I like in Alma 37:32 is where Alma's speaking to Helaman and says "Teach them an everlasting hatred against sin and iniquity" - WOW, I thought - how powerful is that!!

This stood out to me because my job as a missionary is to do as Alma the younger did and taught  his sons which for me now is crying repentance to the people here in Bacolod.!! And as sons and daughters of our God, we need to stay as far away from sin and keep on the straight and narrow path and as Jesus says in 3rd Nephi13:30 -31 The lord will give you the things you need in your travel!!
The language is coming along, just working hard on my speed and tone!!

I know this is the ONLY true church here on this earth family!! And I know Jesus Christ visited the Americas and will come again.
Love you Family and have a good week.
Elder Anderson
