Not sure if this pic is to show us that they didn't make their beds? 

Packages on the 2nd day??? :)- Yummy Sweet Rolls to share for the Newbies!

Friday!!!! Friday is my Preparation Day here at the MTC :) I know I have only been here for about 2 days, but there has been SO much that has happened in that small amount of time. On Wednesday, we got to teach 3 investigators. They took about 60 of us new missionaries into a room, and we all took turns asking questions to and talking to the investigators. The purpose for that was to help us understand that we need to try to see the investigators and talk to them like Christ would. It was pretty cool!

The MTC puts a lot of trust in the missionaries to be where you should be when you should be there. Most of the time we don't have an instructor with us teaching, so we are expected to be doing personal or companion study. Yesterday, we had all ("all" being my district) finished our studies for the time period given to us, so we decided that we would memorized the Missionary Purpose together. Later that day, we were in a meeting where the teacher asked if anyone had the missionary purpose memorized, so my district raised our hands. We then had to stand as a district, and show everyone else (about 50 other missionaries) that we were not liars haha. 'Twas a party!

In one of our district lessons, we had the opportunity to teach Doug, a drinker who's wife passed away last year. Doug was really our teacher playing the part of an investigator, but it felt pretty real to me! Tomorrow we will be teaching Paul, a surfer who is getting divorced.

We got to meet our Branch Presidency last night. They are THE coolest people ever! I can feel the love they have for missionaries and the Lord's work. 

I believe that's all for this week! I guarantee that I missed some stuff, so I apologize for that haha. I love you all! Do cool things!
