MTC Update

Hello everyone! I apologize in advance for the lack of pictures. The computer isn't reading my SD card. I'll send them on my next P-Day. 

The MTC is AWESOME. I'm actually a little bummed I'm only here for 2 weeks instead of 3. We follow a pretty tight schedule starting at 6 AM and ending at 10:30 PM. We study, we pray, we go to class, we pray, we teach. All day every day. 

It is incredible to experience the spirit that is here. As I have been studying the Book of Mormon and other scriptures, I have felt of Christ's love and concern for myself and for my investigators. I know that that spirit is not unique to the MTC, and that as we follow the Savior we can feel His love any time, any place.

So we don't go tracting or anything here, so we get investigators through the TRC (Teaching Resource Center), where people in the area can come to be taught by missionaries. We assume that they are all non-members, but some are converts or have gone on missions themselves. Many will come because they are curious about what we believe, especially since they live in a highly populated LDS area. The cool thing about teaching at the TRC is that whether or not they are truly investigating the Church, each is a child of God and needs His peace in their life, and as representatives of Jesus Christ, we can help them come closer to Him.

My district is awesome. We have 3 sisters going to Tampa, 2 elders and a sister going to Ft. Lautersdale, and 5 elders going to Tucson. We have 2 teachers, Bro. Norris and Bro. Slavens, who apparently knows Megan and Sarah Chapple! I've seen a lot of people I know from high school and BYU here, which has been a fun surprise.

Today we get to go to the temple. I'm so excited. Besides that, we get to use today to prep for the upcoming week and a half so that we can focus on the Lord's work the other days.

Yeah. That's about it. God loves you and has a plan for you. Let Him in your life and you'll see miracles.

Love you all!
Sister Hunt
