Hey Family,
How are you all doing? Sorry for being so slow to write you. We
were told not to write until pday which is today and then like on friday
night they said to write our moms. So I sent a letter on saturday and
then one on monday. I hope they got there in
good time. The MTC is litterally an AWESOME place. You get to feel
the spirit all day, you get to excercise for an hour and your never
hungry. It is a little weird following a schedule 24/7 but one day my
companion and I wasn't able to plan because I had
a district leader meeting and I felt like a lost pup all day haha. We
have the opportunity to teach "investigators" aka role play with our
teachers and then there are some more investigators that we get to
teach. They some of them are just members with a
conversion story and other are actual investigators they tell us. But
they don't tell us what the ones we are teaching are. It is amazing how
fast you learn here. I feel like I have no knowledge of the gospel at
some points and then other times I feel as
if I'm reaching a portion of my brain I never knew I had. It is kinda
like that movie limitless. That is way exciting that you guys get to
brand. Tell everybody hi and that I sure do love getting Dear Elders
(hint hint). My companion is from Ephram Utah
and is a samoan. His name is Teancum Faumui and he is awesome. We have
a really great connection with each other and he is also an awesome
missionary. My district is also the best ever. They are so cool. As you
probably know that I was asked to be district
leader and I don't really know why but i know heavenly father will help
me do my duty. There names are Elders Denny (California),
Piutau(California), Wilson (California), Clark ( Hawaii). They are all
going to Salt Lake City South. We also have two sisters.
They are Sisters Elsworth (Idaho), and Neslen (Holliday Utah). Sister
Elsworth has met Sam before because her parents are serving a couples
mission in mesa and they go to the same old Scottsdale church that sam
goes to. She said that she remembers meeting
her because she is the volleyball coach for ASU. Anyway I am running
out of time so I need to finish up. I love you all and you are the best
ever!!! I'm sorry about the slowness of my getting in contact with
you. Also I forgot my cord to put pictures on
so if you can send that that would be awesome. Also if you want to
include anything else you may think I need. :) I saw Elder Davis a few
times before he left and I also saw Kaleb a lot. He is in the same
residence hall as me so I see him a lot. I haven't
been able to see kalen yet but I am trying really hard to find him. I
described him to my whole district so if they saw him they'd tell me and
tell him that they are in my district. Anyway send letters and dear
elders it is always fun to get mail. It keeps
me going kinda like that song "Letters from home" by toby keith. Love
you all and I'm sorry i can't send individual emails right now but i
will send letters this week.
Love Parker
