Aloha Family,
My mission pres is letting us write our family before our P-day this week. I;m going to be in the MTC for 2 1/2 weeks. Make sure you call Mommy and tell her. I'm going to try and get the date today for you guys. My letter's supposed to be short but that is why I woke up at 5:00. The first day was fun and we had classes all day. Tell Jarom thank you for me. After our classes we did not much then it was just going over the rules, but after dinner we had a TRC that is when we have a big group of 40 and all of us help each other and teach a non-member. Its a role play. At first 2 missionaries that have been here will start it off and we finish it. So it was fun being in a big group. So the fun things on Friday (tomorrow) my district is going to be the first missionaries this time without help and that big group will finish it up. So me and my companion are very nervous.
Oh my companion is Sis. Stucki. She is 20 and went to Dixie School or College. There are 6 of us in one room and all of us are going to Tacoma and we have 4 elders coming with us and 4 elders are going to Canada in my district. There are all ages from 18-21. Out of all of us new missionaries there are 4 from Hawaii. Tell Helam that Ammon from wrestling is on his mission, you know the short filipino.
Okay so I just got some time now to finish my letter. Its 4 or 6-ish. I'm trying to tell time with the one (watch) Helam gave me...Haha :) and I just came back from gym. It was so much fun, I played volleyball. Then they made me take the FLU vaccination. It was $21.00.
Well guess what? 400 new missionaries came in the same day as me and next week it will be 800 new missionaries. Today at lunch, I met a lot more sister missionaries going to Tacoma. There were about 18 of us and they knew a few more. So we all took a photo. The date I estimated departure date is 29 January and i just payed for a phone card. And I will call you from the airport. Tell MOMMY!!!
I miss you guys so much and I love you all. Tell the kids I miss and love them. I'm trying to be a good example to them just like my brother's are to me. Let them know the Lord is always there for them. I love them <3. I could not ask for a better teacher, district and companion. I had a class today, or this morning, and it was about "what is my purpose as a missionary." It was so good.
