1st Preparation Day (August 12 2017)


So I've know been in the MTC for about 3-4 days since I arrived on Wed on this week. But everyone here is just super friendly and its going well. But I am having a bit of a hard time learning to teach people about the Gospel in the MTC but I am just barely learning so Im bound to get better as the days go by. My companion Elder Furse, he is from Hurken Utah and he was in college for a couple years so he is a little older than I am, 4 years older so I'll let you do the math. But Im sleeping and eating well (surprisingly) the food is alright, nothing to complain about, and Im getting always enough sleep. Its definitely different reading the scriptures and studying and pondering for a large amount of the day but I'm starting to get the hang of it.

Hopefully, Piper starts feeling better but I cant worry too much, gotta focus on my work here in the MTC for when I go on my mission. We get to check our emails and respond back every Saturday (or whenever Preparation Day is). So im hoping everything goes well with everyone, kind of sucks not knowing whats going on with Family or the outside world but I'm here with a purpose.

Wish I could stay and chat but I got some important things to do, like write more emails and study more scripture and other stuuuuff.

Love you lots!

This is my MTC mailing address so if you want to share it with people you can. But don't forget I always love you and God loves you too! Also, tell Bryson to email me if he ever needs or wants anything, I don't know his email address.

I heard about that from another email and all those posts on Facebook about it. Tell her I send her my best wishes and prayers for them. Be safe on the way there! That was fun to hear about Grant though, he'll become a superstar the more he works at it, and that basketball court will help out, tell him when I get back I'll ball with him!  Concerning that jacket, just something more casual, the only one I have is that big one from the beginning so its can get warm. Just something for the preparation days or just lounging around at night. Probably should have but more information on that request, my bad! You can have Bryson pick something out, I'll make sure to email him today and maybe he'll do the same. We had some really cool things happen this week though. We started teaching this older couple, Ralph and Terry, and they are such great people. Ralph is currently in a wheelchair because he lost a foot, and I swear the jokes he cracks are phenomenal. This is my f...

Did You Think to Pray? I actually took pictures this week. And for some odd reason this computer is denying me the right to access those photos... Hold back the pitchforks for now, I'll fix the problem sometime soon. But besides from that one. The title comes from a praying mantis I saw while knocking on doors. I went to go ring a doorbell and there is this giant praying mantis guarding the bell. I ended up not wanting to fight the thing and knocked on the door. Something our mission does every transfer (which is a six week period of time kept by missionaries), we have this thing called a zone conference. And all the missionaries here in the desert got together. Which is always a fun experience being out for little over 13 months now seeing people I've grown to meet and love during my time here and catching up with them. But the whole reason we got together was to learn and grow in our service out here. And something that stuck out to me was learning to set goals, but mo...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOMMA!! 🎂🎉. That's pretty funny that that Dad and the kiddos got you a cake, and that sounds like a ton of fun that you and the family are going out to do whatever you want. I think for New Years we'll just go to sleep, maybe, we still have to be awake at 6:30 in the morning. I didnt know you and the family was going out to Mexico, it sounded like a ton of fun. Its amazing how serving can give us a new perspective of love and thankfulness.  I was super grateful to talk to you and everyone in the family. It was funny seeing how Grant, Savannah, and Bryson have changed over time. It was honestly really weird talking to all of them. By the time I come home they'll be even more grown up. After the Christmas call we had some goodie bags made and gave them with #LightTheWorld cards to all our neighbors in our apartment complex and some other people.  We were walking down a street trying by some people that used to meet with missionaries and looki...
