Letters & packages

Packages are often delayed and can incur fees; many parents use flat-rate boxes or local balikbayan box services after asking the mission office.

• Your missionary can email weekly on P-day; letters and packages are optional extras.
• Confirm the current mailing address with the mission office or the call packet before sending — offices move.
• Small, padded envelopes usually travel faster and cheaper than boxes; declare contents honestly and avoid restricted items.
• Mail-by dates for holidays and a calendar reminder are in the interactive guide.

Language

Tagalog (Filipino), English

Tagalog is written phonetically with Latin letters; "ng" is one sound, as in "sing". Add "po" and "opo" to show respect to elders. English is widely understood.

Assignments can include other languages; your call letter states your language.
