Elder Burbidge and some of his friends from the Missionary Training Center days. They met up during a mission conference with Elder Dallin H. Oakes of the Quorum of the Twelve!

Hey everyone – just a quick update from the Cavite Mission. We had an awesome visit from Elder Dallin H. Oakes who is a member of the Quorum of 12 Apostles that lead the LDS church. All of us missionaries came together for a conference and he got up and just started talking about just being happy. How we need to be happy wherever we are assigned – every minute of it! This was a perfect message for me. It was really helpful to hear this coming from an apostle of the Lord and to be in his presence. A fringe benefit of the conference was that I was able to see some of my “batch-mates” from the MTC and joke around with them.
In other events, I have a new companion now and he is one of the coolest guys I have ever met -It feels like we’re brothers already. His name is Elder Toledo and he is super diligent and good at teaching. I’m going to learn a lot from him.
Well – that’s about it! Enjoy the photos and I’ll send more next time!
Love,
Elder Hunter Burbidge

Good for you Elder. I am glad to read that all is going well and that you are learning a lot while you are there. I am one of your dads friends from high school. I taught, or tried to teach how to play soccer. I didn’t beat him up that much. He would cry a lot. But Elder, after all your training is over with. I am sure your dad is going to be very proud of what you have accomplished for your self. I know he will like what you are doing with the Burbidge name.
