We Enter the MTC

Yesterday, we had our first day at the MTC. Heather took our picture as we entered!

There are 32 Senior couples in our group going everywhere from India to Cambodia, to Australia, to Russia. There’s another couple who are in our district who are heading to the Dominican Republic to work in the temple, so we’ll already have friends there!

I was amazed at how well–organized everything is. For instance, the cafeteria runs so smoothly will all of the missionaries piling up plates of food – we are staying with Heather and her family in Provo, so we only eat lunch there, but it is wonderful. It was kind of strange to see some missionaries running around it shorts, but then we learned that it was their P-Day.

We ran into Joseph Weiler in the cafeteria – he will be going to Argentina in about five weeks – he looked so great and is really speaking the language well according to Rob. I could even understand about 50%, so I might survive this whole process :-) We’ve been practicing Spanish in the evenings, so I hope that I can learn it well over the next two years.
