We continued our training for this past week, attending M-F from 8:00 a.m until 4:30 p.m. We had lots of breaks and time for meals in the cafeteria. We learned about about our teaching styles and got more comfortable working as partners as we teach about the gospel. Several volunteers came in for us to practice on. It seemed pretty realistic. We got better as the week went on (good thing). On Friday a couple came in to talk to us who had been on 8 missions! They had some very good advice: use time wisely even the hours after your regular assignment is done. Be creative and think up other things you could do. Also, remember to exercise. It really was more interesting than it sounds here.
We drove up to Park City and are spending the weekend with the Pettey's. Such a beautiful place. Time for extra sleep and laundry and talking. And when we get back to Provo our comfortable district will be gone: The Mahs to Malaysia, the Beans for medical training in Salt Lake, the Sampsons to office training. And we will continue but will now be learning about seminaries and institutes.
But now we know that Wednesdays are ice cream day in the cafeteria and lucky for us, we are here for one more Wednesday!
