Hey Y'all,
 
I am glad to hear that you are all doing well. Everything is going great here in the Philippines, It turns out that my Companion will be going home this December so that he can be there when his family gets sealed. I was kind of bummed at first because we get along so well and I wanted to have more then 6 weeks to work with him. but its all cool. Do you want to know something cool about my comp? so when I asked him what he did for fun before his mission he said "Drag Racing Motorcycles!" haha how neat is that? 
 
My new area is great, the ward is so organized which is refreshing, all the leaders are humble and hard working which is also great. I love the work, even when its hot and we are sweating from our eyelids! its still a blast talking to people about the truth of the restored gospel. I love the people here. Its all good
 
I love you all and wish you all the best.
 
Love,
Elder Proctor
PS about the election... lets not forget that as Americans its "In God We Trust"
love you all

Hello all,
 

So you are all doing well from what I hear. Especially Mom with her quilt retreat coming up, haha I cant imagine anything better than non-stop quilting!
 

So I got transferred! I am in a little town ,or Barangay as they call it here, named Baluarte near Santiago City for those of you that love google earth. My new companion is Elder Rocaberte, I will get a picture by next week. He is way cool and fun to be around. The Lord really knows me and he has shown it my putting me with another gear head haha he loves motorcycles too and its usually what we talk about while we eat.
Baluarte is a cool area, its out in the rice fields, its nice to be out of the city and get fresh air. But now I have to wash clothes by hand again... yay say goodbye to 4hrs of P-Day, but I am looking forward to the experiences that I will have here and the things that I will learn.

Hey Jake, do you remember a Aaron Cass? he says you used to be his ym leader in St. George. he just got here last Thursday.

I love this work so much, I love all of you I hope you know that and don't forget it. The Gospel of Jesus Christ has been restored to the Earth so what reason do we have to be sad? Eternal Life, Joy, Peace, and Love are all waiting for us if we just do what is right. SO LETS DO IT!
 

Love,
Elder Proctor
