We have a box number!

From my G-Mail Chat with Evan yesterday...
"me: I want to write Scotty every 5 minutes

like... I want to use DearElder.com as my Gmail Chat for Scotty"

"Evan: haha, there would be a bit of a lag..."

"me: He's going to be so tired of my letters by like... tomorrow"

"Evan: we should write him today though. or have you already?"

"me: I've already written him."

"Evan: how many times?"

"me: Juuuuuust onnnnccce. Sheesh!"

"Evan: sure sure"

"me: But I already have like 5 other things I want to tell him."

Have you written Scott yet?

Gotta love DearElder.com... however I just know I'm going to start getting letters from Scott saying "dude. chill with the letters." because all throughout the day I just want to sit down and write him another letter and tell him something funny, and it's so stinking easy with DearElder.com!!! I know, they should be paying me to do this... I just think it's such a blessing to have such an easy, free way to keep in touch with our missionary!

Anyways. I came to bring you an MTC Mailbox number, and the number is: 129

So when you fill out the envelope on DearElder.com, you {select Provo MTC, then} put:

Elder Scott Lowry
129 {MTC Mailbox number}, Philippines IloIlo {Mission}, November 15th {estimated departure from the MTC}

Or, if you want to send a package {packages ROCK and NOW- meaning while he is in the MTC- is the time to send Scott packages as it is risky to send packages to him once he is in the Philippines} you can send it to this address:

Elder Scott Lowry
Philippines Iloilo Mission Provo MTC Box 129
2005N 900E
Provo Utah
84604

You guys are the best! Thanks for loving our Scotty Potty!

Write Elder Lowry!

Need a little clarification?

Feel free to ask any questions you might have in the comment area! Here are a few things I thought might help, in case you need them:

-Iloilo is pronounced "Ee-low-Ee-low"
-MTC stands for Missionary Training Center. All missionaries report to an MTC before going to their assigned mission to be trained to teach by the Spirit, to answer questions and to rely on the Lord in order to serve the people in their missions.
-District Leader (DL) is just what Scott describes in his 1st letter home, while in the MTC at least! In the MTC DL's are definitely the ones to inspire their district to be the best they can be and achieve and keep all their goals, keep everyone motivated and in line and pretty much just be an amazing example for the others to follow. Scott's got this one in the bag ;) In the mission, it's only a bit different; it's an assignment given in which you are responsible for checking in on the other missionaries in your district and assisting them as needed, as well as gathering information and reporting to the Zone Leaders, who then report to the Assistants to the President, who then report to the Mission President!
-P-Day (Preparation Day) is the 1 day they get in the week to do laundry, write home, exercise, play sports, go grocery shopping, whatever they need to do. They get to wear "street clothes" with their name tag on P-Day and it's of course the day we all look forward to because we get e-mail (looks like his P-Day in the MTC is Mondays)! (At least while he's still in the MTC... we don't know what the situation will be when he gets to the Philippines.)
