Well its finally P-Day! I have been at the MTC for pretty much a week now! I am loving it here. My companion is named Elder Fletcher and he is super nice. All the elders in my district are examples to me and the language is coming! The food is pretty decent it just depends on what it is. The spirit of God is so strong here. Once I got here, I could tell that I became a different person. I never knew that I could learn a language enough to teach an actual lesson after studying for just three days! The gift of tongues is real. I am so glad to be a missionary for the Lord. His gospel has blessed my life SO much. I am so grateful for all the letters I have received this week. It is really motivating to know that I have people at home who love me and support me. I love you all. And I want you all to know that God loves you too. We had a devotional this past sunday and an area seventy named Elder Alen spoke. He said that we need to realize that as disciples of Christ, we are at war with Satan. He is doing everything he can to destroy you. I love this church. I know with all my heart that it is true. I can promise you that if you read the Book of Mormon and pray to Heavenly Father with real intent to know that it is true, he WILL answer you, because he loves you. You will feel a great joy and peace in your heart and all of your troubles will be gone. I know that this will be the Holy Ghost speaking to you testifying of this truth. As a representative of Jesus Christ, I can testify that I know for MYSELF that this the Book of Mormon is true. And because I know it is true, I know that the prophet Joseph Smith was a prophet of God and that he did truly see God and Jesus Christ. All of this you can know to be true for yourself if you pray, truly wanting to know, after reading the Book of Mormon, if it is true. He will be there for you. Thank you for all your love for my family and myself while I am gone. Talk to you next week! I couldn't figure out how to upload photos so you will hopefully get some next week.
