Dear Family,

The MTC is so great. We have been learning so much. We learned how to teach and we have taught two different people so far. My companions are great. They are so helpful to me. I was asked to be the District Leader of our 9 Elders. There have been a few challenges but the Lord is giving me patience. We are able to learn so much by the spirit here. Every time you do anything the spirit guides. It is such a great feeling. My companions are so great. They have a great sense of humor and know ho to have fun, but also to buckle down and work when its time. I miss you so much. Today we got to go to the temple. It was so great to be there and to see the inside of another temple. It's a little different because it's so big but the spirit there is just the same as it was in the one back home. We are learning to keep a better study journal, so I have been trying to write down everything I can and organize it as best as I can. I rarely see the senior missionaries. They are hard to set apart from all the branch presidents and MTC workers, so I have no idea what they do. I was able to find Jake and talk to him a couple of times. I was even able to get a picture of him and I in front of the temple. I will be printing out pictures and sending them to you in the mail, hopefully in the next few days. All I can say is that this is the Lords' work and he loves everyone one of his children.

Love
Elder Reese
