Dear Family and Friends, First of all thanks for all the "Dear Elders" it is great to here from all of you! So, the MTC is great- I love it. Also tonight we should have AT LEAST ONE Apostle or Maybe the Prophet here to talk to us. Can life get better, NO! I don't know why I have been so blessed to have the knowledge that once again God has called a prophet to the Earth to lead and guide his children. I'm so grateful I know that, and I can't wait to tell the World that He has called a MODERN DAY PROPHET once again. So, my companion and I are getting along great. My Tagalog is comming along wonderfully, but no where close to where I need to be. Isn't it amazing that we are here for 60 days, and 19 year old boys are speaking another language in another country? It is a miracle- it IS the Gift of Tongues. There is no other explaination of how this language is learned so quickly for me than that. I hope all is well- I'm sure it is seeing as how you are all CHILLING ON THE BEACH IN SAN DIEGO! Fufnny thing is, If I had the option of taking a few days off and going there, I WOULDN"T! The beach has nothing on missionary work. I wake up at 6 or EARLIER- EVERY MORNING and don't go to sleep until at earliest 10:30pm. I wouldn't trade what I am doing right now for the WORLD! No wonder Ammon said he didn't want to marry King Lamoni's Daughter, He was a missionary and no cute girl or promise to a thrown in a Lamonite Kingdom could make you want to stop being a missionary! We had our "old" bunch of missionaries ship out this week, only 6 more weeks and I'll be shipping out. The time is flyiong by. The days are long and the weeks the shortest in my life. I should be tired all the time, but I'm not. I'm set apart and blessed beyond measure. I hope you are all having fun in San Diego- but just so you know you should be jealous of what i'm doing and where I'm at! SUCKERS (hahahha). Let's see, what else can I tell you? We listened to a talk by Elder Bednar called "The Character of Christ" it was amazing! Also The FOURTH OF JULY IS COMMING SOON> again- you should envy me. And I am not being sarcastic. I love the morning Flag Raising, I love the Big Parade, I love the Family BBQ and the Fireworks at night- but nothing is like being a missionary. I feel your prayers for me. I pray for you all. I love you all, I hope you know that. Don't worry about me. I'm GREAT! I don't any more time, hopefully next week I can send Pictures. I'm still not sure if we can do that from the MTC- i'll find out and try next week. I love you all! \ I hope Uncle Bob is well? Kates- GOOD LUCK! Prayin for ya! Mom send me Semore's Address. Time to go. Tell Gramps he's a stud! Love you Mom and Dad, Bro's and Sis's. MGA ANAK Mahal you too! AND REMEMBER "It never rains enough to cool my fever!" -District 16A's Motto! Mahal, Elder Davis!
