Week 1 - MTC

MTC companion Sister Gillman



Hi? I guess? I am at the MTC??? I haven't died yet??? Anyhoo, I am here, it is hard, but it oh so worth it. Wednesday, I got dropped off and it was probably the weirdest day ever. I didn't even remember what happened it was so crazy. If I'm being completely honest I don't actually remember most of what happened since I was dropped off. We've taught investigators which I'm  still learning how to do. And we've gone to a lot of classes. I didn't think there would be three weeks worth of things to do at the MTC, but holy cow. If I were to learn everything that I feel like I need to learn, I'd probably be here for months. And I'm speaking English. My district is the greatest. We're all super tight which is nice because some districts don't get along hardly at all. #BFFs my zone is also super cool and basically I'm really lucky. My companions name is sister Gillman, she's from linden, and she went to UVU! We work really well together and we get along great! Our roommates are named sister Smith and sister Jensen. They're the coolest. Sister Smith a I have the same sense of humor so we just laugh all the time. It's great. Our whole district just jokes around (when we aren't talking about how cool this gospel is) which is super helpful because this is a super gosh darn hard thing that we're doing and laughing helps. Last night before we went to sleep, our fire alarm went haywire and just went off and we all had to evacuate. There were girls crying, girls that had been in the shower and just had towels on, and we all started singing hymns. Our room was laughing, it was a swell night. I love being a missionary! I've done what they all said and I've made it to P-day! God is good, the church is true and all is well!
