Dear Family,
First full day in the MTC. It has been long, like I’ve been told the first 3 days are. I have found much success in many areas today. I was made and called as District Leader. It is a huge responsibility, especially with only my companion and 12 sisters to take care of.
I want to correct my last letter my P-Days are on Thursday,
so letters will come on weekends
The language is difficult but Elder Carver and I are doing
very well. Tomorrow we are teaching an investigator on the plan of salvation in
Hillgaynon (Hil-ee-guy-noon). Which is gonna be crazy since we have had 2 days.
We will do great through.
If you can, send me some stamps I would love to receive some.
I can send a letter everyday until Sunday. The stamps here are .48 cents a
stamp. So that would be really nice.
The stress is getting to me a bit, but I know I can finish
this strong. The other Elders keep me going. Every night the guys are laughing
and chilling. It is fantastic.
I love you guys. I am keeping my shoes on!
Love,
Elder Minson
This was a misfire when we dropped him off, but it is so fitting considering his farewell talk and the continuing theme of this letter |
