This Place is Amazing!

Kamusta! (Hello!)

Such a lovely surprise for an aching
Momma Heart!

I made it to the MTC! This place is amazing! I want to live here! I'M NOT KIDDING!

I have to make this short, but I want you to know I am loving life right now! In the first few minutes I met my companion Elder Stacey! He is super cool, and we are laughing our way through everything, because it is all happening so fast. It is so surreal. We were thrown straight into Tagalog classroom time, and our teacher only spoke Tagalog to us! The language is tough, but we are trying our best, and it will come quickly as long as we work hard!

Ingat! (Goodbye)
