Hello All!
I have finished my first week at the MTC (At home) or CCM in Mexico City. This past week has been awesome! The first day was a bit rough since I am 2 hours behind the CCM, So I had my first class at 6:00 AM! I met my district and there are 12 of us, 6 Elders and 6 Sisters. I got to meet my companion Elder Davies and he is pretty Awesome! He went to BYU for a year before his mission just like me so we are close to the same age. He loves soccer and loves hanging around his family. Morning times I have 4 hours of class, an hour workshop, 2 and a half hours for lunch and other things, then I have afternoon class for 4 hours. So its been 9 hour days on a computer this past week. I have started to try to learn Spanish and it's been going, ok. Both my teachers are from Mexico and have been learning English which is great! Listening to native speakers helps with hearing how things should sound when talking. I have learned quite a lot these past 5 days! I have already memorized the missionary purpose and Moroni 10:5 in Spanish and I have been trying my best to learn Spanish grammar and vocabulary! My companion and I got to teach our first lesson on Friday and that was a good learning experience. The lesson could have gone a little smoother and I was nervous so that never helps but what else do you expect from your very first time. All in all its been a great week of learning about being a missionary and getting ready to go out into the field. I am so thankful for this opportunity in my life to serve the Lord with all my heart.
Below are pictures of me and my brother. I have always been wanting to grow taller so let's hope these next two years I grow a foot or two haha.
