Day 1

Dear Mom and Dad, WOW! Thats all i can say. I love this place so much already. I have felt the spirit so much! I'll tell you about my day here and what has happened to me! So I arrived to the Provo MTC around 1 pm today. I was so nervous and it was all going so fast! My host took me to a couple places to grab some needed material and showed me to my dorm. Its just a small room with 2 bunk beds but its a humble abode for sure! We dropped all my luggage off and I was shown to my classroom! My teacher (who I dont remember his name) was speaking spanish as I walked in and other Elders were already there. I found out after I walked in that me and my companion are in a room full of people going to Argentina. My teacher then walked me and the other 2 Elders to the computer lab where we had to watch a movie about what we have to expect here at the MTC. When we finished, we went back to the classroom. After like 10 mins, my companion walked in! His name is Elder E. I was like "yay"! I was excited because I thought he knew spanish... I was wrong! After class, we went to the cafeteria to eat dinner where we had chicken fried steak and mashed potatoes! It was delightful. I loved it! Me and Elder E had ice cream after and it was really good! After lunch we went to this thing called Wednesday Night experiences which was amazing. I loved it! They bring real investigators and we teach them as real missionaries! I met a kid named Elder Ford going to Seattle Washington and he was way cool! But back to WNE. These 3 investigators all had different problems in their life and we had to do our best to help them. I thought of awesome scriptures but didnt share. :( I forgot to say i saw Clayton and Austin Adams today! They look like real Missionaries! But after the experience thing, we went back to our clasrooms and met our zone leaders! They are cool people! Me and Elder E then went back to our rooms and now we are writing in our journals. Well im about to go to sleep! Hope everything is going great there! Love you so much! Love Elder Garfield
