Kumusta po kayo pamiliya ko. I saw Elder Giles and Elder Haycock. They are doing awesome. They have meals at the same time as me. I think they are liking things pretty well. It takes a few days to get into the swing of things then conference. They will be fine. I am pretty sure I will leave one day before them. Hahaha. So exciting.

I am glad that you guys are doing good. I got the pictures but the MTC computers are wierd. The pictures were blown up huge and one was turned sideways. I am glad that you guys are doing good and having lots of fun. It is good to see that you guys are staying busy. I got a letter from Lindsay this week and she said she was doing good. I am glad things are going well for her. Also I am excited to hear from Haley. I will look forward to her letter in a few days.

As for me life is good. The blue spot on my neck was just dead blood and the doctor sucked it out. It was pretty weird. So I think it is gone. Also I am feeling better but you know me. The symptoms always last a long time. And the immunization shot - On my first day or so at the MTC the lady who looked over my immunization record said I am able to get my last Hep B shot. She said that it is 6 months from shot 1 to shot 3. She said the 2nd shot just needs to be in between. So sometime in the next two weeks I should get it. I think.

I am really sad for the Evan's family and I wish them well.

I am so excited to go to the Philippines. The district just above us left of Tuesday and we got 3 new districts on Wednesday. It is sad to see my good friends leave but they are excited as am I. Next week I should have my travel plans. It is so crazy how little time I have left. I am going to make the most of it. The other day we taught a member for TRC. We had to practice getting to know someone and teaching them an overview of a lesson. It was way good and we taught for 40 minutes without much difficulty. A lot of it depends on the person we teach and the amount of prep we do. It is always lots of fun. Also I am excited for conference. Not the rest of the day but listening to the prophet and the apostles is going to be cool. I don't know how it is going to be sitting on those bleacher type seats for 10 hours or so this weekend. Also we can't bring in anything, even water. Oh well. I will just look on the bright side of life.

Oh one last thing. I got a letter from Ross Kesler. He said he had family in the Philippines. In Manila area who want to treat me as family. So we will see how that goes but that is way cool. It just makes me more excited to go to the Philippines.

Life in the MTC is going great. I am learning more language every day. I have come to love the personal study and two hours a day isn't enough. I wish I could study longer. The scriptures are so awesome and the spirit that comes from them is so powerful. I could use the things I said like q-tips and some granola bars etc. I also like gold fish and goodies and candy. If you want to of course. That would be cool. I hope you will send me a package. It is so fun to get one. Thanks.

I love you all and I love to get letters from you. The work is progressing and going forth. I am so excited to teach the Philippine people and to get out of the MTC. I am excited to continue to study and grow in the gospel. I know that God lives and everything bears testimony of him. I love that scripture in Alma. I encourage all of you to continue to rely on the Lord and love everyone around you.

Love,
Elder Woolf.
