Week 1 and 2: The Missionary Training Center (MTC)

On June 28 at 6:15am Elder Eliason boarded Delta flight DL2943. And just like that he was off! Thanks to Uncle Lyle who met him at the airport and accompanied him to the MTC.

The MTC is so much fun, my branch, and zone are amazing, and my teachers are super cool! This week we started doing TRCs, which are like training investigators. They're challenging to teach, but I can already see how missionaries can care so much about anyone.

Sisters Banner, Terry, and Davis and Elders Lewis, Barnes, and Packer are going to the Oregon, Eugene mission. Sisters Sughroue, Erekson, and Larson are going to the Hamilton New Zealand 🇳🇿 mission. All of the rest of us are going to the Arkansas Bentonville mission.
