Hello Family! I’m so glad its finally P-day!
The MTC is really
amazing but it’s also very hard. Its designed to make boys want to go back to
their mommy. But so far I haven’t missed home too much ha-ha. Italian is coming
along well. I can pray and give my testimony in Italian and also introduce
myself and my companion to people. One of the Hillcrest boys (Austin Christensen)
rooms with me and his companions name is Anziano Sexton from Colorado Springs.
Anziano Malloy, my companion is from Reno Nevada.
As you know the
missionaries for Italy only ship out every 6 weeks. So half of the missionaries
only have 2 weeks left here and the rest of us are new. It’s about half and
half new/old. Apparently I am in David Archulettas room. He was here the week
before I got here ha-ha so its kinda weird. I talked to a few of the Elders
about what it was like seeing him and they said he’s really short, and always
in the way in the lunch room just standing there confused ha-ha. I don’t really
care about David Archuletta I just thought it was funny. Another funny thing
about the MTC is that there is a pine tree that smells exactly like cream soda.
Yes I’m not kidding cream soda, I’m not sure how someone found that out but it’s
funny to see all the Anziani standing around smelling a tree. Most of the
Italiano missionaries are on my floor so we all are in the same hall and hang
out a lot. Its good fun!
Last week was really
hard and it was discouraging hearing all the 6 week italiano missionaries
speaking because they are almost fluent in the language so I got a little down.
But this week is much better and I am doing very well. Every day we do about 4
hours of language and 4 hours of English scripture/ preach my gospel study so
we are always busy.
Mom
this scripture is for you:) Alma 56: 47-48, 55-56 Sorry I missed mother’s day I
didn’t have a P-day last week. But from now on you will get an email every Thursday
until I get to Italy.
Love Suo Filgio,
Anziano Benson
