Last MTC letter
Hey y’all,
Well, it’s
my last letter from the MTC!!! I’m out of the prison!!! I mean …
So, how
well was conference received? Everyone
in the MTC cheered when President Monson made the announcement about change in
missionary age. It was extremely
exciting.
Not much to
say except good bye Utah! Cool
story: I’ve seen a lot of people. Jeremy Call, Chris Hoffman, Martie Tullis,
Cameron Kocherhans, Zach Stay, and, of course, those that work here. Bro. Hess was also an “investigator” for
in-field orientation. That was cool.
I’m
extremely excited and extremely nervous, but it’s time for me to leave. Last Sunday, I gave a talk in Spanish to my branch. People said they understood and some natives
said I did really well with no noticeable mistakes. Now, I’m ready to go to NY and sound like a
baby talking, yay!
This last
week, Elder Bednar came and talked to the missionaries. While listening, all I could think was, “How
much are we loved!” It’s the truth. The Lord loves us so much that He has given
us such great people and ways to be counseled and consoled. It truly is amazing. The Lord will always give us a way of help in
our needs. That I testify. Ask in faith, and ye shall receive. It is true.
No matter who the person, the Lord will counsel us, comfort us, and help
us.
Hope you
are all well.
ꜟ Adios !
