First Week

Hey guys! I have a lot of pictures that I wanted to send to you but our computers aren't letting any of us send them. But anyway.. The MTC has been amazing! I cant even begin to tell you how strong I've felt the spirit while I've been here. 

The first night was a little crazy because me and my companion had no clue where to go! But we finally found out where everything was. The second day we started teaching our first Investigator who's name is Raphael, and actually when we teach him today we are confirming a baptism with him! 

At the end of my day we got called into meetings to meet with President Callister and at the end of the night I was assigned to be a District leader. 

I'm pretty happy that I'm only here until Monday because we have all the people going to Russia in our dorm, and they have kind of gone insane after about 8 weeks here, haha. Now I'm teaching three investigators and one member who is from Hawaii and we get to Skype her every now and then! It's amazing how sensitive the Hawaiian people are to the spirit. I can't wait to write you guys again when I'm in Hawaii next week!!

Love you all.
