MTC training camp

I can´t seem to get computers to read my camera right now.  I think it´s the cable.  I´ll add that to the list of things I need to buy. :P

For now, another email without pictures.

Hello!

We have about 40+ youth here in the ward here, we thought it would be good to have a mini MTC for them so that they could know what it´s like to be a missionary for a day.  We did something similar in the stake in Guayaquil a little while back.

We did the activity last Saturday.  We had them study personally for an hour and as companions for an hour-  they almost died.  We explained to them that they had to stay with their companion at all times-  that almost killed them too, and most of them failed to stay together.

All and all I think everyone enjoyed themselves in the end.

I realized that it´s naturally difficult for lots of people to have someone by their side 100% of the time.  But somehow as missionaries we pull it off.  Doing so we keep ourselves and each other safe.
I´ve only ever had my companion hide from me once in my mission.

Apart from all that, things have been normal.  It´s been really really hot and my feet hurt a lot.  That´s life. I wish I had more to write... but I´m drawing a blank.  I´ll try to do better next week.

I love you all and hope you have a nice Forth of July.  I wont.  We don´t celebrate that here.
I might go find a really really American tie and play the national anthem really loudly.   ...and maybe buy some hot dogs to cook up too...    ...hm...

I changed my mind, apart from the fireworks, I´m going to have a good Forth of July.  I´ll let you know how it was next week.  Be sure to let me know how it was back home too.

Love you all!
