Week 1

Starting Home MTC

Hello Everyone! I finally started my mission! After getting set apart on Sunday night, I got up at 5:45a Monday morning to get ready for 7a class (get up and dressed, eat breakfast, and do 30 minutes of Daily Planning with my companion). Since I am working with the England MTC and we have people in my district from anywhere from Turkey to Utah, our classes are at weird times. So I have class from 7a-10a and 11a-2p then I spend my afternoons doing companion study, personal study, language study, and safety training – a lot of studying.

Getting Set Apart

Today I get set apart as a missionary by my stake president, that is when I will officially be a missionary. This means I must start following mission rules, so I must say goodbye to social media and other distractions so that I can focus on my missionary work. It also means I get to put the name tag on and it will stay on for the next 18 months.
