Read after the jump.....
Well the first week in the mtc was a little rough. The second day we studied for 8 hours, that is longer then a school day. I haven't really been homesick, the only times I am is after studying for seven hours or right before i go to bed. My companion's name is Elder Rodgers, he is a cool guy. He likes playing sports just like me. He is really supportive and helps me out when I am feeling homesick. Last night was probably the hardest. After sudying all day I wanted to give up, but the zone leaders had a little devotional. It was unplanned and it was like an answer to my prayers. They talked about D&C 4. Which is pretty much all about the work I will be doing. It really hit home because now I know that I need to do these things because there are specific people out there that are waiting for me to go teach them the word. So I guess I will keep going. haha.
i love you
I'd like to encourage everyone to write him a short email this week. It doesn't have to be anything profound, just a little something to let him know we're thinking about him and supporting him as he heads into week 2.
Elder Jaramillo, The Duvall Family is praying for you! We know that you will be an awesome missionary!!!! Josh will be back working at the MTC next week. You can look him up if you need anything!!! He works in the MTC computer programming department. We will write you a letter on Dear Elder. What is your MTC Mailbox number??
