They eventually decided to send us to California to do something useful while waiting for visas. By early spring, Salt Lake decided we weren't ever going to get visas, so they sent us to the Philippines, I guess because the missionaries taught in English in the Philippines at that time, and the Philippines is about as hot, poor, and dirty as Indonesia, so we'd be fooled into thinking our prayers and fasting had been answered... Shortly after arriving in the Philippines, Salt Lake announced the 18 month mission thing, and gave current missionaries who arrived in the MTC by the end of July the choice of whether to serve 18 or 24 months. Those who arrived later had no choice - 18 months was their lot. We arrived August 6th. So I spent 3 months in the MTC, 4 months in California, and 11 months in the Philippines. |

Steel you served in Belgium?
Me and the wife spent time in Beligum, spent two days in Brugge, spent a day in Brussells. Bought $300 of Dumont Chocolate. Ate fries with 'special sauce' which turned out to be mayonaise. Ate the best Pizza Hut pizza in my life. |
