Magandang Umaga. (Good Morning)
Those are good letters. I am glad you guys have had fun with Lindsay and Ethan. Tell Megan Happy Birthday and Congratulations. Happy Birthday to you too Dad! Mom I got your letter on Monday. It is good to see you are getting the hang on modern technology.
It has been so crazy here. Everything blurs together. Well for the most part. Dates don't mean a lot. Anyway it has been hard but awesome. Life here in the MTC is good. The first week started out slow but it is getting better and faster each day. The food is ok. It creates some blockages in some missionaries. So my digestive system has been weird but I guess that how MTC food always is. It's not like home cooked food. Oh and on Sundays for breakfast we have cereal. That is it.
Enough of that; I have already taught like 6 lessons in Tagalog. Our first investigator Aiza Mabalot is now our teacher and her name is Sister Landrum. She served in San Pablo. Oh and Bro Hyde is no longer our teacher. He only taught us at the beginning for the training video we were a part of. It is training for the teachers. So it was good. My other new teacher is Bro Taolele. He served in Olangapo.
My companion is from Laie, Hawaii. He is awesome. In class we have learned how to pray, some basic get to know you questions, Commitments, How to read a scripture, How to bear our testimonies. And just recently some sentence structure and place holders. Tagalog is kind of a weird and hard language. There is no easy standard form. But it sounds awesome. Our last lesson teaching Aiza was our best so far and that was on Wednesday Morning. We didn't use notes we just read two scriptures and bore our testimonies and then my companion asked her to be baptized. She said maybe in the future and now we don't teach her any more. Oh well. Oh and I have been reading the Book of Mormon in Tagalog and English. It is fun.
My zone is so cool. All of us get along real well. Elder Zigler is in my zone but he leaves in two weeks. Oh and Elder Dalton from our stake is in my zone. He came in on the same day as me. Let's gym is awesome. It’s lots of fun. Volleyball, soccer, basketball, lifting weights, running. I hope to lose some weight but we will see. Oh and I jammed my finger pretty good. Oh and the cyst thing on my neck is back. Well not as big but I am getting it lanced again on Thursday. I hope you got my letter I sent. I can't remember what I said already. Today we went to the temple for the first time. I love the temples. The Provo temple is beautiful. After our session we ate at the cafeteria. Now that is some good food. Definitely the best meal of the week. Good bacon and omelets.
I love you all and hope you are doing well. I look forward to the package. Dad I think it is awesome you are exercising. I love you all so much.
Love,
Elder Woolf
