MTC

(Sorry about the mass of pictures! Michael set up our blog for us and decided to start with that.)

We survived the MTC! We spent the first week living at the MTC and learning how to be good missionaries from Preach My Gospel. It was challenging, especially when we had to give 3 discussions to others, but we made it through. We were blessed to be able to attend 2 Tuesday night Devotionals. The first one was with Elder Holland and the second one Sister Joy Jones, the general Primary President, spoke to us. Both were exceptional.

The second week we stayed in a hotel but went to the MTC during the day. They taught us a lot about how the office works and the church’s IMOS program (Internet Mission Office System). Amy even learned how to do Excel! We learned a lot that we hope will make it easier when we get to PA.

We came home and worked on our packing Friday then had dinner with the whole family except Julie (stayed home in Vegas while Cam brought the kids up on a quick trip). Wayne was the host and he smoked some awesome ribs and tri-tips. It was pretty hard to tell everyone goodbye. I know we will miss them so much.
