We have continued our training here in Provo.  The time goes by quickly and we are being taught out of the Church's, Preach My Gospel booklet.  Even though it is highly unlikely that we will be asked to formally teach anyone about the Church.  We are in class for about 7 hours each day.

We have been paired up with a wonderful sister missionary (see foto below taken with Sister Siders) from Colorado who is going to St. George to work in Records Preservation.  She will be travelling to Salt Lake to the Church Family History Library to learn more about her specific tasks before she leaves for St. George sometime next week.  We hope to be able to stay in touch with her and help each other as we serve our respective missions.

We continue to look for Roya (our grand daughter) who is supposed to be teaching Croatian here in the MTC, but haven't seen her yet.

We have also met at least two couples with whom we have some type of connection.  An Elder and Sister Butler.  He was a missionary in the Brazil North mission at the same time as mother and I.  He arrive about a month before me but we never worked in the same areas.  We were talking with a couple from Arizona, Elder and Sister Favreau, who are friends with Pat and Shelley Huish from when Pat and Shelley lived in Arizona.  Favreau's are going to France to serve with young special interests (YSA) individuals and say hello to the Huish's.

Those in our district are Elder and Sister Hansen who are from Eagle Mountain they are going to Ohio to teach institute at Ohio State.  Elder and Sister Johnson are going to Mesa where they will work with the Church Education System (CES).  Elder and Sister Denton are going to France assigned to work with YSA.
