Goodbye to Elder Stewart

Even though Elder Stewart left Pohnpei last fall and went to serve on Guam and then Saipan, we have never forgotten the amazing missionary he was. He left his mark on Pohnpei. He loved the people, he taught the gospel and he helped us as we were learning so many new things.
Elder Stewarts final testimony as a missionary in the mission
home on Guam.
    Thank You, Elder Stewart, Welcome Home

     Elder Cook & Elder Holt have been teaching several families, but one of the problems is they need to get married before they can get baptized. We have been helping them teach about eternal marriage and the importance of marriage. Well tonight one of them got married. Elder Cook & Elder Holt even made a cake.
