Another early morning!
I got up at 5:45 a.m. to shower and dress; Gary getting up right
after. We met up with another couple
from our District, Elder and Sister Harris (who are from California….I think
near where we are going to serve). We
gave them a ride to the MTC for breakfast and to begin our day. We also gave them a ride to the Marriott last
night.
When we began our meetings of the day, we found out that
some of the Districts had to be dissolved and the couples joined with other
districts, because some of the teachers were sick. So, ours was one that was dissolved…..Gary no
longer a District Leader…..that was a quick calling!
Today we began in earnest to study Preach My Gospel
(hereafter called PMG). Our young teachers
were EXCELLENT! We had lessons,
discussion, and role play. Our homework
for the night was to do some more reading and prepare for tomorrows role play,
where we meet with an “investigator” and present The Restoration of the Church
of Jesus Christ. This took awhile, and
so we never got our reading done…lesson 2 in PMG, The Plan of Salvation. Will have to do tomorrow when we have free
time…like maybe after breakfast, or during breaks. Today was a busy, busy day. After dinner tonight, we had a MTC devotional
at the Marriott Center, with all the missionaries at it. Our speakers were Elder and Sister
Maynes; he is in the presidency of the
seventy. It was a very good
evening. It ended at 8 p.m. Then we walked back to the MTC to get our car
and drive back to the hotel to do our evening stuff….preparing for the role
play of tomorrow. This took some
time. Now to get ready for bed and
sleep! It is 10:30, and I am tired. Tomorrow comes early!
Here was the schedule for the day: Everyday starts at 8. We started with large group meeting, then
small group meetings until lunch, then large group meeting and small group
meetings until dinner, then the devotional from 7-8.
