<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: 11.5pt;">Hey Everyone, </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 11.5pt;">I have been here a week!!!!! Can you believe it!!! This week has been amazing, I have learned so much and I LOVE THE MTC!!!!!! I love my companion, her name is Sister Duvalois, she has blonde hair and we are so much alike. She has a great personality and most of the time we are laughing our butts off!</span><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 11.5pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 11.5pt; margin: 0px;"> </span><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 11.5pt;">I have 3 others girl in my room counting my companion and 3 of us are going to the Texas Houston South Mission!!!!! how crazy.</span></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: 11.5pt; margin: 0px;"><span style="margin: 0px;"> </span><span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>The food is pretty good, it depends on the day. The first day we were here we taught an investigator as a giant group it was amazing. I thought it was great how they just made us get right into it. The next day we taught our teacher who was a pretend investigator.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>We taught him the power of prayer and he didn't want to pray though.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: 11.5pt; margin: 0px;"><span style="margin: 0px;"> </span><span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>One of the sisters in my room didn't have a companion for two days and so we were a trio but after two days a sister from the Mexico MTC changed to English speaking and I am so glad she did because she is an amazing person, her name is Sister Astle. She has a spirit about her that you always want to be around her. The Lord knew she needed to be here. </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: 11.5pt; margin: 0px;"><span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>The MTC offers tutors and I got one so that I can better understand what I am learning and how I can teach. <span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>It’s helping me so much in reading and in note taking. Which I know will be beneficial when I am teaching the gospel.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: 11.5pt; margin: 0px;"><span style="margin: 0px;"> </span><span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>We went to a devotional on Sunday and Elder Ballard talked to us about being like Christ. A quote he said was "Look at today as a great day because you are serving the Lord"!!!! We also had Elder Cook speak to us yesterday and he said that when we come home we have to bring a convert home and that's ourselves. <span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>Another thing he said was that when they sometime choose where you are going they base your call on your mission president. How great is that! </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: 11.5pt; margin: 0px;">Yesterday we taught a real investigator and we were trying to teach her about repentance and we were telling her about the commandments and I let her see my preach gospel book (because that's the only place I could think to look) and she turned to the page of the law of Chastity and now next time we teach that's what we are teaching on, how funnnn!!!!</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: 11.5pt; margin: 0px;">For Shari Beck I did find Cynthia and I gave her a big hug from you. I actually got to say goodbye to her the day before she left. </span></div>
