Home MTC

Raymond, Alberta, Home MTC, August 7-14, 2023


You were able to serve in the temple for two weeks prior to starting the home MTC and being set apart. Serving as an ordinance worker was a very spiritual experience for you. In your farewell talk , given on August 13th in the Raymond fourth ward, you indicated how much serving in the temple increase your understanding and testimony of the covenant in ordinances. And that these experiences with strengthen you and your testimony, as you brought the gospel to the Filipino people.


This week we have already seen subtle changes in you. A softening and increase in spiritual desires. You have loved getting to know your district and participating in the classes. Having said that you did not love sitting in our hard chairs four hours a day :-) we were fortunate that Nichole Anderson was able to get a nice office chair for you to borrow, which I think made a huge difference for you.


With some of your free time this week you’ve played basketball and worked out. We have also gone to writing on stone with some friends and I think you’ve enjoyed last moments with friends and family.

    Hey ya'll! Honestly, this week was a hard week. But, hindsight is a wonderful thing. I have a couple things that I don't think I would have realized or attributed to God were it not for the struggle! Lets get into the week!     So we started off the week with two exchanges! Which means we as leaders have another companionship come to our area and we show them how we are having success and also to learn from them!! I learned a ton from both of them. They are both great Elders. We were able to teach sister Mardel and find a lot of new friends!!     The rest of the week was super interesting. We tried to do what we usually do and just go to all of our friends in one day, but literally no one was available. We felt like we were getting very little work done. On Saturday we were traveling around the Zone doing baptismal interview's! Which is ( in hindsight ) a blessing. At the time we were worried about not be able to work in our area. But. We are so bl...
