Mission Tour By Elder Bowen

This week was really cool because we got to spend much of it with Elder Shayne Bowen from the first quorum of the seventy as well as his wife Sister Bowen. He trained the leaders on Tuesday at MLC, The Manila missionaries on Wednesday (which we got to attend most of because our flight was delayed), The Palawan missionaries on Thursday, attended our mission's Christmas party on Friday and came to our Branch's Sacrament meeting on Sunday. He was so wise and I really learned a ton from him.  Sister Bowen was so good also and she had about a five minute Tagalog testimony memorized.  They are so cool!

The Christmas party was really fun. We played some fun games, sang some songs, watched a movie about the Savior, and then Elder Bowen bore a very powerful testimony and witness of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ while Sister Bowen played the piano.  It was a great time.

On Saturday we went to visit our investigator Teddy who literally lives 100 feet from this beautiful beach. Teddy is so prepared to be baptized on the 26th!!  He's reading the Book of Mormon like crazy, keeping the Word of Wisdom and Law of Chastity and coming to church regularly. We're so blessed to help him make this great step in his life.
