MTC

Rex and Cathie have been in the MTC for almost 2 weeks now. They will leave for Jamaica on Saturday around 8:00 in the morning, and get there around 8:00 at night. They are so excited!
The MTC has been a great experience for them. They have learned much, and have grown spiritually so much already.
The Senior missionaries have a much more relaxed schedule than the young men and women that go. We (the kids) were able to go get them, and spend the day with them last Saturday, the 13th for one last time before they leave on their big adventure.
They have spent a day or two in Salt Lake City doing training, then all the other days learning Preach My Gospel, and about the humanitarian stuff they will be doing. They said that the food in the MTC is incredible, and the young men and women are so polite. They said that haven't had to open their own doors, or take their own food trays back, then young men and women, are right there to do it for them.

This is at the MTC when we went to pick them up.

 I (Megan) will be posting updates as we get them. So stay tuned!

Beginnings

We have been called to the Jamaica, Kingston Mission as Humanitarian Specialists.   No one guessed that's where we would go, but it's great and were very excited.  We don't leave until Fall, wish it was sooner.   Once you decide to go, it's hard not to just go but, there's lots to do before we go.  We need to get all our documents ready. Then we need to study and train on Preach my Gospel, Perpetual Education Fund, Employment, Drug Recovery, Welfare programs, and Humanitarian programs. Then visit with all of our family as much as we can.  Finally we will need to get all the stuff we need to take together and packed.  It's all taking a lot more time then we expected.
