Well everyone, Jacob has made it safely to the MTC. He had his first P-Day on Friday, and sent us home a few emails. He seems to be enjoying the experience and his companions. He will be departing the MTC for Tonga on October 4th, which seems much closer than I thought it would be.
This is what he had to say about his companions, his roommates, and the language:
The language is coming along. It is easier than I expected but still extremely hard. I live in the same room with the entire Tonga mission for the next little while. There's five of us. I'm currently 122 pounds. The other four in my room are all above 270 and less than 300...so imagine how I look! My companion is Elder Gardener. He's cool. He's white and from vernal! He likes to hunt and fish and played football.
He didn't seem to have much time for a long email this week, so there isn't much to share about his experience so far, but we should be receiving another email from him tomorrow and I'll do my best to keep this blog updated!
