Day 1 

 

-Pday! I got to talk to all my people and it was great

-saw sister andersen for the last time before she headed to estonia  

-i played volleyball again! These 2 guys joined us and i was finallyyyy able to ge some swings off of them! I got hype it was so fun.

 

- everyone has graduated from calling me cashmoney, to just calling me money and im living for it 

Day 2

- temple day! We did an endowment session

- i got to draw for the first time in a long time

-i got a package from this cute lady in my ward! 

( shout out sister richardson )

- we worked in the kitchen for our service project. Me and feds were on aloha bowls so we had to wear aprons and hairnets. If youve seen my google photos you will know that it is not the look 

- quentin L cook came and gave us a devotional! It was cool bc they only have apostles come like every 6 weeks so we got lucky.

- the choir sang during the devo and the asl missionaries were included! It was the coolest thing ever so see people signing so big and emotional that it low key made me emotional. It was soooo cool 

Day 3

It was my moms bday so i got to call her! 

( happy bday momma )

-me, coil, and feds have decided that we are going to have a triple wedding when we get home and were all going to marry elder day.

-we got to help the new missionaries! ( which means im not new anymore and that thought makes me want to throw up ). The first girl i hosted was from fiji! Being back in the same parking garage i had just been dropped off in a week ago low key sucked. Seeing everyone sad made me think about how sad i was when i did it.

-we ended up helping the newbies for like 3 hours. Lugging suitcases up and down stairs for that long really works up a sweat and we were exhaustedddd

- my parents sent me diet dr pepper and ive never been happier 

-erickson decapitated jesus "thats worse than the romans"

-2 nephi 22-27

- broke into the cafeteria and got icecream sandwiches 

Day 4 

- i did feds hair in super cute bubble braids 

- we learned how to invite people to get baptised and it was much harder than expected so now i have something to work on for personal study lol

- my teacher said " your sins died with jesus. If you have given your sins to christ, you are forgiven, and your sins are gone, they dont exist." And i already knew that but for some reason when he said it that way it blew my mind 

-if we have faith in jesus christ, we have nothing to fear. When they say to "fear god" its not meaning that we should be scared of him, were supposed to be scared without him.

Day 5

-another temple day! Sister wallis was on the bus and we got to yap it was a party

- the bus to the temple was soooo hot. ( pai remember the train to lagoon? Worse than that )

- " i feel like im on the bus ride to my funeral" " only you, you, and you get to carry my cactus"

-got a cutie package from my mom

- we got our flight info! On tuesday im outta here ( and i could not be more relieved ) 

- i was in a weird mood for class this day and my favorite sub teacher happned to come in. I was trying to practice teaching her the plan of salvation and i just couldnt. So she looked at me and goes " who is jesus christ to you? How do you feel his love?" So i bore my testimony ( low key angrily) about how jesus shows me that he loves me and i shared a few experiences with her. It filled me with so much peace and comfort and i was able to express how i felt about him to her and she cried. I learned just how powerful testimonies can be in teaching, rather than just using my script in my head. It was really cool. 

Day 6!

-played pickleball with the boys!

- stopped playing pickleball with the boys because some random elder was trying to control eveything and it was annoying

-played 4 square " CHERRY BOMBBB " 

- hey mtc eployee what kind of sauce is that? "Um genuinly no idea... mystery sauce?" Brother you WORK HERE

-in class we did testimony meeting! One of the elders said something that really stuck with me

"I cant wait for my testimony to be tried, because i know that god doesnt give us things we cant handle". Like wow

- Elder day continues to be the goat. He walked up to me during our break in class and pulls a little hot wheels truck out of his bag and says 

"I have a hot wheels for all the sisters, but i only have yours right now.... i chose the truck because youre powerful, youre strong, and you can get anyone through anything." I wanted to cry and it was so hard not to give him a huge hug 

-" he stood up after gethsemane, he knows how to carry you." Jesus felt all the pains and suffering of man all at once and still he found the strength to stand and continue. He wants you to rely on him, and he showed you that you can by going through that.

-ok so youve all heard me say how awful the food is, and the mystery sauce for dinner was low key our last straw. So me, Feds, and Coil made a plan to have coils friend give us chickfila through the fence and we pulled it off . Only barely tho because we were dumb and chose a spot right in the middle of literally everything so people started yelling at us and a freaking parade of like 30 people walked by singing a song in samoan so our elders panicked and grabbed the bags we had passed them and sprinted up the hill. It was low key stressful but so worth it to have some actually edible food lol.

- we almost got caught by an old man while we were dividing up the food with the boys, so we quickly covered it and feds starts fake crying and thanking the boys for their testimonies so that he wouldnt talk to us 

- 10/10 day lol  

Day 7!

-sunday!!

-also happy bday elder haycock 

-at breakfast there was a little mishap with feds and some cream cheese. Ill just say that 0% of it ended up on her bagel

- i watched one of my best friends open his mission call. Salem Oregon is really really lucky

- had a lil party for haycock and at some 3 day old cake 

-saw my aunt angela! 

I lovedddd the mtc. Even though it was so hard, ive already grown so much as a person and ive learned soooo much here. We keep talking about how exited we are to leave ( which is still so true )

But this is the only time were ever going to get to experience this, so even though im ready to get to montana, im sad to leave the mtc. I was blessed with the best comp and the best district. God definitely knew what he was doing when he put us together. His timing was exactly what it needed to be, and weve all realised that since being here. Im gonna miss them, but i know im meant to go and love the people in montana, just as much as i was meant to love the people of district 16B. 

Love you all so so much! Next time you hear from me, I'll be in montana!
