The
first few days of the MTC have been great! It has been really chaotic
but pretty much what I expected. Perks of having older siblings who have
already served to tell you stuff! The food here really isnt too great
haha but today we got to go do a temple session this morning and we had
breakfast in the temple cafeteria which had muuch better food. My French
class has been pretty solid so far. I was suprised at how many things I
remembered from High School. I think I'll get French down in due time.
Tonight I have to teach my first lesson in French! I have no idea how to
really say anything but I'm sure my companion Elder Graf and I will be
able to figure something out. After all we do have the spirit on our
side. The spirit here at the MTC is amazing. It is really cool to see so
many Elders and Sisters all unified towards a common goal to invite the
spirit into other peoples lives. Everyone in my zone is so dedicated to
the work and they have all been really helpful. However sadly a huge
majority of our zone is heading out to the field on Monday and Tuesday. I
really wish I had more time to meet them but being moved to report a
week early kinda messed up the schedule. As for my district we all came
in together on Wednesday. There are only 4 of us: Elder Graf, Walton,
Kennedy and myself and we are all going to New Caledonia French
speaking! It is really cool to have a whole district dedicated to one
language and mission. Also I really like my French teacher, Brother
Kellette. He served in Paris 4 years ago and hes a really fun guy to be
around. Today we finally have our first gym time which I've been dying
for. My French zone leaders have this tradition where the whole zone has
a soccer (football) game on P-days and I'm really looking forward to
that especially because one of my zone leaders, Elder Stanton, is
British and played professional soccer. I never really had much of a
chance to take many pictures so Ill be sure to send a bunch next week!
Also I got to talk with Kane for a little bit! Turns out he has to stay
for nine weeks because there was some course confusion. I will be
heading out to the field before he does haha. Talk to you next week!
