Letter From David - Jul 20, 2018

Salama!

Tia ny MTC aho. Tsisy vaovao. Aho dia misiônera avy an’ny fiangonan’I Jesoa Kristy hoe an’ny olomasin’i andro farany. Tia ity aho.

Sorry, I love speaking Malagasy! Haha what I said was hello I like the MTC. I am a missionary for the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. I like it. Family and friends, I love you guys so much and I am so grateful for all the love you’ve sent me. I am so grateful for all the support you’ve given to me. My companions name is Elder Ashford. He is a stud. He got called to Madagascar a year ago, was dropped off at the MTC and only stayed for a half hour due to a medical emergency, and got a call later to the Philippines but had to go home under surgery and now he is in the MTC with me going to Madagascar again. I love him lots. I love the Malagasy language! It’s very fun to speak and to preach the gospel in. 

There are 13 people this transfer headed for the big island of Madagascar. These are the names of the people going. I hope I got them all right.

Me

Elder Wilkes

Elder Mano

Elder Mano is a great guy he’s hilarious and he is our zone leader.
When I got my name tag they accidentally gave me the name tag for another Elder Johnson who is going to Tahiti. They gave me a name tag printed in Tahitian and it looked good for the short amount of time i had it. Thankfully, I now have my Malagasy name tag.
Mom, yes I met elder Smith he’s a great guy and he knows I emailed him and we are great friends.

My p-days are on fridays for the next 5 weeks for your convenience. May god be with you and bless you for all your love and support. Veloma, mazatoa! (Farewell, stay diligent!)
