MTC

My companion is a cool guy, he is Elder Forsyth from some small town up north in Utah. He's 21, he's pretty spiritual, and he says fetch a lot, then corrects himself, so its pretty funny! I only have a few minutes to write you guys, so I'll be fast. The first night at the MTC taught me more than any stake mission prep thing could ever do! All of the mission preps from being a priest, and all the mission prep at byu-idaho, everything combined could not come close to what you learn here at the MTC. It is amazing! The spirit here is so strong. And we're so incredibly busy. But all the praying, singing, and practicing is helping me feel so close to the Savior. The focus here is teaching people from the heart the doctrines of Christ. Faith in Jesus Christ and in His Atonement, Repentance, Baptism, receiving the Holy Ghost, and enduring to the end. That is the missionary purpose that is on page one in Preach my gospel. It is powerful. It is the only way to true happiness and fulfillment. Our focus is to get to know the people we teach, so we can love them as Christ does, and then teach them and invite them to come unto Christ. The MTC is amazing. I am super excited to go to Canada, and I'm pretty glad I won't be here for 3 months, but its still an incredible experience.
