Its really cool too see lives changed. My comp is elder Burdess from Farr west ut. He is a way cool kid and we get along very well. . Other than that.. .Nothin else to report, I dont know my address off the top of my head so if you want to send me a letter or package send it to the mission home address. Later

Week One and Two: mtc

Well, I've made it a week here in the MTC. Two More and we'll be in oregon. Time progressivly gets faster and faster every day. And I'm starting to really enjoy it here. The food is awesome and even better than that is the Spirit. . I've definatley learned so so much and am learning more every day.

Yesterday was an especially great day, we went to the refferal center which is the number on all the pass along cards. so we make and take phone calls. Such a neat experiance talking to a real investigator and not a member posing as one. I was very nervous at first but i got more and more comfortable with it and placed a book of mormon while calling
some one to see if they had got a bible as the had requested. It was really cool bearing my testimony to someone real.

Also, last night we had Tad Callister from the 2nd quorom of the 70 come and talk to us about how to become a consecrated missionary. It was a cool meeting and we sat on the 2nd row. it was really cool.

Ive learned alot and have really begun to be able to remember scripture references and how to teach with the spirt according to the needs of the investigator. it is really cool. I know that the Lord is helping me learn and grow. Well my email address is ben.milligan@myldsmail.net so if you could, send that to all the family, i'd love to hear from them. many people are waiting to use the computer so i best be going.
