MTC First P Day

February 7, 2019

Hello! It has been a crazy but amazing week! My companion is sister Wood (from pocatello idaho) and we have been getting along very well. Our other roommates are Sister Pass and Sister Evan's. Sister Evan's first name is hayley spelled the same way as me! All four of us are going to Tucson.

It has been quiteeee the week holy moly. I have definitely felt down at moments but I have come to rely on the power of prayer and things just keep working out. The day after the night I was feeling most down, I had so many people who just made my day. The best was when I was helping this old lady find where her and her husband building was and after, she gave me (and my companion) a big hug and said, "sisters! Dont give up! Me and my husband are converts. It took my husband two years with the missionaries... you may not feel like you're making a difference, but you are!" Seriously it was so sweet and there were other cool experiences that day as well.

We have had the opportunity to teach a lot of lessons to "investigators" through a program called TRC. It's really cool because you do the whole thing with someone you've never meant. Some of the actors are members but some aren't so it's really cool and I've had some good experiences. Overall, I've just seen from lesson to lesson how much I am able to improve each time which is really cool.

One thing that was really cool as well was fasting here at the mtc. I have never felt so good on a fast Sunday before, and even though we got a later dinner because of choir practice, I was so filled with the spirit it didn't even bother me! Haha... and the choir has been the best. The teacher is amazing and makes it so fun. Singing in the Tuesday devotional with Joy D Jones was really special

My roommates love to start the day with early morning sister yoga, we wake up at 5:45 for the 6am class but it is seriously the best way to start the day. Also 4 square during gym time is the best. We also love sister mittens, the cat here at the MTC. We have been well fed by the mtc cafeteria and many treats from my mom;) 

I have had so much fun and I absolutely love my district. We felt like family after like second day. I'm really loving it here and I feel like I've grown soooooo insanely much in such a short amount of time!

Love you all! I can read my emails whenever so feel free to send me some encouragement whenever :)

Love, Sister Chadwick
