Carmen's First letter from the MTC

Wed, July 1-2, 2009  (this was handwritten her first night/next morning in the MTC and mailed to us)


Family!

Hello!  Wow, today has been definitely overwhelming, but also very fun and the Spirit is everywhere.  I love it.  I don’t have much time so here are a few things:

-An elderly woman who was volunteering said, “with that smile, you’ll get into lots of doors!”

everyone is so nice.

-I saw 5 people I know including Sister Curran (Brooke).  We had a great time talking at dinner. Unfortunately we can’t visit each other in our rooms.  Bet we said we’d write each other!

-One of the guys elders l knew also was Elder Ramirez, I worked with him at the Crabtree early morning.  He saw me and said, “Oh, my gosh I love this woman!” A bunch of elders yelled- “lock your heart!” it was fun to see him, he is in Sister Curran’s district.

-I love my companion- Sister Godfrey.  We’re very similar and very grateful we had an automatic friend to figure things out with. My roommates are also wonderful and very helpful.  They leave on Tues to go to Kirtland.  So I get a bottom bunk!

-The MTC Presidency is amazing.  It was so great to hear from them. I also really like my branch and its presidency.  I'm going to go meet my teachers this morning.  

So far, so good!

I love you guys!

Love, Hermana Dunford
