MTC 4th of July 2013

Happy Fourth of July! Crazy how i've been here for a month! I get my flight plans tomorrow. Stinks that we get them after pday! I'm really going to miss everybody here! They are so much fun! This week has been good overall. Some days are harder than others. It's kinda a roller coaster. Good thing i kind of like roller coasters, huh? The language is coming! Everyday. but its hard at times. All the Konjugations(that's how you might spell it in cebuano) are crazy. I got a letter from Elder Webster! It was funny! Tell, Everybody at the party i say Hi and I love them! Oh and thank you for the package! I LOVE IT! I was craving peanut butter cookies and that is exactly what was on the bottom of the box! Salamat jud kaayo! Oh I've seen Quinn! He told me to tell him Hi. So can you tell him that? i always think of that time we saw him running. Hahahahahahahhahahahahahahah We're still teaching Edeline ug Ruel. Edeline is geting baptized on the 10th. And Ruel finally prayed! He wouldn't pray for the longest time! It's a little hard teaching the same person as the other companionships because sometimes things can get mixed up. Like we thought Edeline's family was in the Philippines and then here and now they are back there and it's just weird. Haha but it's fine. Today we have a little something tonight and then we will watch fireworks from the stadium of fire thing, but we'll probably be behind the MTC. I'm not exactly sure what we will be doing today...haha. the temple is closed so we have like an extra 3 hours so I will write you a letter about when we taught Ruel. It was kinda crazy. And we won't be cleaning the temple as of now. The devotionals are AMAZING! On Matthew O Richardson, second counselor in the general sunday school presidency, It was great! He talked about being a REAL missionary. He also spoke about "What e'er thou art, act thy part" and that stone thing. Ya know what i'm talking about? Well the pictures on the stone are numbers and the numbers across, down, and diagnoly equal 18. If one of the numbers didn't act their part, they wouldnt equal 18. It's like us. We need to act our part so everything can come together how it's suppose to. Sister Nielson in my district said something about how we're like puzzle pieces. We're the missing piece. Well, the Gospel is. And we have found that piece and we are bringing it to the people of the Philippines to complete their puzzle. It was really good. On Sunday we listen to....wait for it...Sheri Dew! It was amazing too! I was reading the end of Alma this week. I never realized how great those chapters are! I just had to keep reading! Haha dili maayo to run into people and that pastilan iro (dog)! Haha you're funny! And you know how you had goals with Jacob? Set some for when I get home and then you show me up and teach me everything and we can do more races together! :) Kevbot is home?? How cool! When does Elder Wells? Boys. Haha you should have gone to the mountains. Kyle Terry? My best friend! Haha joke lang. Tell Kristie and Sandeep thank you! and tell them Hi! And all your funny friends at work! I hope i eat food like that! Did you like the fish? THat's a little sketchy. Haha Nahigugma ko nimo! That's really how you say I love you! Love, Sister Sawyer
