Hey everyone I miss you all :) the mtc is defianetly tiring but it is fun. I have been busy learning the language and i know how to pray in Tagolog and i know how to bear my Testimony in Tagolog. My vocab is very limited when i do this but i am learning. My only e-mail time is on monday so i would really appriciate if you all would write me letters i want to hear from everyone. My mailing address is on my facebook under my picture so check it out. I will send you all pictures sometime. Today i went to the temple it was so spiritual i love going there. I get to go every Monday so i'm excited. My estimated departure date will be October 25. I hope to hear from you all soon. Mahal Kayo ( I love you all) Alam ko po na totoo ang simbahan. Alam ko po na totoong propeta pa si Joseph Smith, at totoong propeta Thomas S. Monson para sa ating panahon. Alam ko po na totoong si Jesus Cristo si Cristo. Sa pangalan ni Jesus Cristo, Amen. ( I know this church is true, i know that Joseph Smith is a true prophet and that Thomas S. Monson is the prophet in our time. I know Jesus Christ is the Christ. In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen

Love,

Elder Damon Joshua Mele

Elder Mele Enters the Missionary Training Center (MTC) in Provo, Utah

August 25th.

Missionary Training Center

When the MTC was built in Provo, beautiful green athletic fields were planted so the missionaries would have a place to exercise. However, they were so inviting that BYU students were attracted there, and you would see BYU students out playing touch football, throwing frisbees, etc. on the missionaries' field. To deal with this problem, a large banner was posted, which read "Missionaries Only."
The next day, BYU students were out on the field, playing touch football and throwing frisbees. They had posted a new banner which read, "Every Member A Missionary."
