Good morning stranger, how long has it been?
I have so much to catch up on but I won’t worry about
that now, as I am going to start from today and go forward!
What an exciting day in the MTC (Missionary Training Center)!
The Spirit is strong and the people are wonderful! This is truly an
experience of a lifetime ~ of course I’d like to have this experience at
least a few more times, so once in a life time is hopefully incorrect 😉.
It's official!
We entered the MTC on January 6, 2020 and from the get go I knew it would be fantastic. We were hooked up with a another ‘couple’ companionship. They were Dale and Cheryl (Pronounced Chair-el) Johnson. What a delightful couple they were! They live in Orem and come from hardly Pioneer stock! We became instant friends and enjoyed their company throughout the entire week.
We had Brother Kidd and Brother Zundal as our daily teachers. What amazing
young returned Missionary’s these two young men were. Brother Kidd should be a
professional teacher. He was outstanding in every single way. He was patient, offered
great examples, was wonderful in positive feedback, he engaged with the class, took
time to listen and he turned the questions back to the class to think about and answer.
He made sure never to force anyone to speak. I can’t say enough good about him ~
we’d love to have him as an instructor for our 2nd mission. We had Brother Zundal as
our afternoon instructor; he was wonderful, too! He was moved by the spirit and very
open with his personal experiences, which I loved. You could tell he cared about us and
would often times bare his testimony about a topic whenever he was prompted.
They both were always prepared and it was just a delight to be with both of them this week!
These are our amazing classmates!
