The MTC

Well my time in the MTC has already come and gone.  I arrived at the MTC on August 28, 2013 and now just 13 days later I am leaving for the mission field.  I loved my time in the MTC.  I felt the spirit really strong here.  I also have learned a lot about myself.  One thing I have learned is there just are not enough hours in the day to get everything done that I need to.  There is so much to learn. My advice for everyone who wants to share the gospel is to read and know the scriptures!

On the first day at the MTC, we had class and then we had a meeting with the MTC Presidency.  I  was asked to say the prayer for the group of missionaries arriving that day.  So we were all new and I had to say the first prayer for them in this big assembly.  I knew it needed to be really spiritual. I had no idea what to say, so I said a prayer asking God for guidance. I then said the prayer when it was my time, but like with most really powerful prayers I say I can't remember them because they don't come from me, they come from the Spirit. Later that day, one of the Presidents said that it was really good.  He said I have a prayerful ability beyond my years!

Another exciting opportunity I have had in the MTC  is to serve as district leader.  This meant I arranged things for our meetings and picked up everyone's mail a couple of times a day.  My district has been awesome.

I am so excited to get out in my mission field.  I know it's going to be great!!
