Elder Moncur did not send a group e-mail this week, and I (Max’s mom) have a lot of catching up to do with his blog. I will work backwards from last week and update with all of the pictures and work he has been doing. He has recently transferred and is currently serving in Ligao. His companion is Elder M. and of course I found out that he is a runner from Utah. Max really likes him and they have been running every morning. Max is trying to read through the Tagalog Book of Mormon to help with learning the language. You can write to him by following the instructions in the right-hand column (notice that U.S. postage just went up) Missionaries love (and appreciate!) mail. Thank you for all of your love and support. Look forward to more posts soon. Here are some pictures he shared with us recently (without captions from him, so I added some):
