Missionary Training Center

This morning, Michelle and I headed down to the Missionary Training Center (MTC) in Provo, Utah. It was about an hour and forty five minute drive from Pleasant View. Once there, we were greeted by many friendly missionaries and staff. We then went into a short orientation meeting and listened to some short talks from the the president of the MTC and his wife. We saw a short video of some of the things that go on there and then received a schedule for the rest of that day.

At the end of the short orientation, Michelle said the closing prayer, as she had been asked previously by one of the MTC presidency. Then there were many tears in the room as missionaries and families said good bye to each other. It was very emotional. It was the hardest, most wonderful, happiest, saddest day in my life. I will miss her for the next 18 months.
