Today was another wonderful day at the MTC. We are already wanting to put in our papers for a second mission. Our District consists of two other couples: the Stevens going to the New Jersey Morristown Mission and the Jensens to the Italy Milan Mission. Both couples are a hoot:
Elder Stevens was a cattle farmer, and Elder Jensen was a Genetics professor at Weber State.
While all three of us couples are going on "Office Missions," we have learned these past three days that our primary mission is inviting and teaching the Gospel to those who don't have it. Our "Office" responsibility is an "Additional" assignment. So we are both learning to have role discussions with volunteer "investigators" and evaluating ourselves (and being evaluated by our trainers.) At lunch we sat with a couple who are being sent to work in the office in the Russia Moscow mission and a sister from Alaska who is going to the Puerto Rico San Juan Mission.
We still cannot shake hands or give hugs! Wednesdays at the MTC are normally very busy with missionaries and parents: but all we saw were missionaries! Anyway, it was a very spiritual day!
