It’s been another relatively uneventful week here at the MTC, so this’ll be another relatively short email. I understand there have been some problems with people getting my emails, but hopefully they’re fixed by the time this goes out.
This past Thursday, my companions and I got to sit in at the end of a tour and answer questions about what life is like at the MTC and other related questions. It was fun to talk to other prospective missionaries and families about what I have been able to do so far on my mission all while still in the MTC. On Sunday, I also got to be part of a small panel of missionaries that got to help the MTC presidency do a presentation for all the new missionaries that got here last week. It was all about obedience as a missionary.
I’ve entered my final week here at the MTC and so things are getting kinda crazy. We’ve been busy getting our suits cleaned and getting haircuts and other related things to make sure we’re ready to go. This will probably be my last email for a week and a half or so as I travel to the Czech Republic and get settled into the city where I’ll be living for the next few months. I might have my family send out a quick email when I get to the Czech Republic, or I might just save it all for when I get a chance to email. This week has also been all about making sure that we’re as ready as we can be with the language, and it feels like we’ve been working nonstop to get ready for it. Our teachers have also been telling us little stories about the country and people to get us extra excited to get there and start serving. We fly out Monday morning, but we don’t get there until Tuesday afternoon, and we will start working the very next day as soon as we get to our assigned area. Usually a mission area is a city and surrounding towns that I’ll be living and teaching in.
Pictures this week are of my district with a kind of Czech food that Starší William’s family sent us, and another picture of my zone right after exercise time. I’m kinda hidden in that last one, but hopefully y’all can find me.
