Week 2 Elder Scott

Hi Family this week was another great week here at the mtc. I had some stumbles with my companion but i think we have worked out now. I am trying to read the book of Mormon before i leave the mtc but im not sure if i will have time to finish it. My schedule here is pretty packed. This week i have learned so much about how to funnel the spirit through me and get out of its way when teaching. Some of our investagors are committing to be baptized but were still working on a few. we have 8 now i think. I am SO ready to get out in the field!

I was able to teach one of hardcore baptist investigators how the book of mormon supports the bible and how they each prophesy of joseph smith. Ezekiel 37, 2 Nephi 3, Malachi 3:1, any way im learning alot and i have got preach my gospel down to a science.Yesterday in Devotional Elder Russell M Nelson of the Quorum of the twelve came and taughrt us it was awesome. He spoke to us about obedience and its blessings. I am going to try my hardest to be obedient because he said that obedience brings blessings, but EXACT obedience brings Miracles.

Mom heres some answers to your questions. I have seen people i know, i saw Elder Grover (Jason) and many of my friends from BYUI. I LEAVE MAY 30, MONDAY, and in the AIRPORT I CAN MAKE A CALL SO BE AVAILABLE. yes i am taking my meds and i am sleeping fine, my roomates tell me that i hit the pillow and i am out instantly and that i snore. Schedule is no biggie. i Have been to the Provo temple twice now and it is much bigger than the Denver Temple. I have lots of pictures i will send you when i get to the field. Thank you SOOOOO much for the cookies, MTC food can be sketchy at times. Keep sending Pictures and letters often, please remind that list of people that i am expecting mail from them! haha. also send me some gillette fusion razors when i get my official address because these disposables are AWFUL!

Good luck mason at your rugby camp thing, and weston with your swim camp. Everyone get better soon!! I Love you allz.

Sincerely your Goofy Missionary,
Elder Scott.

I have grown so much here in the mtc already both Physically and spiritually, its trulay an amazing place and this is truly the restored gospel of Jesus Christ. the food here is kinda doing a number on me ... and i feel bad for my roommates. my companion Elder Peacok is from Salt Lake City, is freaking AWESOME same with our whole entire District we are so close to each other and all are going to Ventura. Here in the mtc we have a lot of roleplaying scenarios where we practice teaching investigators. Me and Elder Peacock are getting really good at it and love teaching by the spirit! it is amazing how it just channells through you!. Weston and Mason are gonna love it! its really Fun! anyway there is still a lot i have to learn but it is kind of funny because when we teach i have apparently sound like a scholar my comp says and it makes me feel good. Also the mtc residence halls are a lot like the Dorms, the only diference is the spirituality. its wierd not being able to talk to girls haha there are some cute sisters here but its not a big deal I am here to work and serve my Lord and savior Jesus Christ and God the Father. I have memorized D+C 4, and Alma 53:20 and the Purpose as a missionary. I cannot wait to get out into the field and serve its going to truly be the greatest two years of my life. If you want to contact me here in the mtc USE DEAR ELDER PLEASE i only have a half hour on the email a week. but when i get out in the field i wont have that problem so yah. I love you alls and keep sending letters because it gets lonely here after awhile. its cool in the mtc you can see m0ount timpanogas i hope i get to ski it someday.
