After lunch on our way to the MTC

Dear Family,

The first day/days were pretty rough actually, but after I made it to Sunday I felt much better, I've been learning a ton about bringing others unto Christ and my purpose as a missionary. I have never felt the spirit more than when I set foot on campus here.

Yeah I've seen a bunch of my friends, like Brady and Cole. I even saw Derek Hurst. But when I saw Straton he wrapped me up in a big bear hug! I've had so much fun here!

I didn't cry much at all in fact everybody in my district here at the MTC seems to be doing really well! Oh yeah also I was called as District leader of 8 companionships total 6 of which are Elders and the other two are Sisters! They are all very amazing people in their own way.

The food is pretty good, I like it enough to eat it again each day! Haha 

I honestly feel that I have the best teachers on campus! Brother Hollingshead and Brother Jenkins are their names; they have helped me so much in teaching me to come closer to God.

So my P-day is Tuesday here at the MTC, but when I get out to California it will change to Monday.

Send me a whole bunch of snacks! I do have time to come back and rest for a little bit and snack! Haha also the space that you've been putting a "?" Is supposed to be the number 155.

I love you so much mama, let Addi know how much I love her and give her a big hug for me! You will all be in my prayers! Miss you and love you tons!

Love, Elder Smith
