Letter #4 (Aug 24th, 2011)

Hey all,
We are all doing much better in the district this week. All of us are over our sicknesses and feeling much better.
I have received no letters any week and this week only the two dear elders form you and Reilly... =[ ...but I wrote some more letters today and sent them out to people. And with the language... we are on a totally new program inspired of the Lord, in which the teacher does not speak English, we speak Cebuano, and practise with people who have recently returned from serving in Cebu... its much better than the last program they had and Cebuano is much different from Tagalog cause its so much better and only return missionaries are teaching it to us. So I'm pretty confident in what we are being taught, and not worried at all that the pronuciation might be wrong cause i know it is right.
This week we went to play sand volleyball up next to the feilds across form the temple, instead of going to the gym and playing basketball. It was great cause it was Fri evening... the sun was still up, but it was cooler and nice and quiet (until we started playing of course, haha). Basta... (that means anyways, or moving on...)
Im trying to get photos to you, but when there are only two machines for printing photos off, and one of them is always 'out of order', and there are however many missionaries there are here at the MTC trying to also print off photos... it gets a bit hard. :P
I will try again this week when i have some time and get all my photos done a sent home. Once in the Philippines ill be able to just attach them and email them across. =]
We have devotional fireside tonight again... so far these are the people who have talked to us:
Elder Simmons - dont know where from
Robert P. Swensen - Director, Missionary Services
Gerald N. Lund - Former member Quorum of the Seventy
James L. Hacking - MTC District Pres.
Merrill J. Bateman - Emeritus Quorum of the Seventy
Richard I. Heaton - Administarive Director Provo MTC
Stephen B. Allen - Managing director, Missionary Department
I hope you are spoiling Reilly while I'm gone! Did he pay for the 3DS all by himself? Dili maayo, if he did. Kinahanglang ka mag-spoil kaniya kada adlaw.
Missing you all muchly, Naghigugma ko kaniyo.
Elder Taylor Addison Cox


As you can all read he hadn't received any mail except from immediate family. So I think he's wanting some mail!! hint, hint!!!
