We had a great trip to Little Rock to visit with Scott, Monica and baby Anna. What a joy she is and will be to her parents.
We have been in the Mission Training Center for a week and have spent our days being taught by 23 and 24 year old returned missionaries who conduct themselves like polished university teachers or corporate executives. We stand in awe of the young men and women who are here. This place has a spirit about it that can’t be described with words. The young Elders and Sisters are working hard. They are courteous (I haven’t opened a door since I’ve been here.) and kind and practice their street approaches on us. I can’t believe the change that comes over a young man because of the MTC experience. My hope is that they remember how it is here, so that when they are out in the real world, and become discouraged, they can get their enthusiasm back. We’ve had several large meetings and to hear 2300 young missionaries sing a hymn is wall-shattering. What an experience this is. We wish everyone could be here just for a short time to experience what we have experienced.
