First email from the Provo MTC sent 9/16/13

I am doing really great here in the MTC. I have been feeling a bit homesick and I miss you guys a lot. The food tastes great but I've had some problems when it's going out. I look forward to getting your care package. I am loving the experience I have had to teach an "investigator" here in the MTC. I feel like my Spanish is way better than it was when I came but I know that I still have a lot to learn. The spirit here is the best that I have ever felt I love my companion and the people in my zone. I have been trying my best to exercise and keep myself focused on the work. It's hard but feels good. I love you guys.
