Hello Everyone!
I am on exchanges today. My companion went to town with another missionary. The MTC is pretty quiet today because the language missionaries have the MTC to ourselves today. That means those of us learning another language other than English are still here. All the English speaking missionaries, which is about 90% of the MTC, shipped out this morning on buses. They are all headed to their respective missions in England. Tomorrow morning we have 47 new missionaries arriving. Including Sister Hannah McKay. My friend from BYU-Idaho. She is serving in the Scotland/Ireland Mission.

I think everybody should go to an MTC and live there for a week. I think somehow quantum physics and time just don't work here. Hours feel like minutes and seconds feel like eternities. We are in constant motion. People are often asked to describe what MTC life is like. Here is my description: In the MTC you will feel the angels of heaven beside you one moment, and then you are being plunged into the most fiery hell the next. You will believe that you have lived here since the moment you had your first sentient thought, and also watch as a week passes you in an instant.
I said last week that we are the most popular district in the MTC, and that is because we are GAM FAM Greece Athens mission family!
My day looks something like this: I wake up, brush my teeth, get dressed and sleep walk down two flights of stairs to breakfast. After that we have daily planning and personal study for 1.5 hours.
Then class/teaching appointments till lunch. After lunch it's service/study time, depending on the day. Then physical activity and showers for about 2 hours. Then TALL (Technology Assisted Language Learning), then dinner and more class or teaching appointments. Then bed.
We went to Ribbledale Park this week. I'll try to send pictures. We saw some historical sites which was cool.
We had an Area 70 come and speak to us about testimonies, and how we should think of them like a spider's web and not a brick wall. It is important that we strengthen the strands of web that form the frame. The Godhead, the Atonement of Jesus Christ, and the Restoration. It is okay to have a more sure knowledge of somethings than having a shaky knowledge of all.
President Bunker gave an amazing talk about dating and the Law of Chastity. It was absolutely incredible. We learned the difference between affection and lust and how to distinguish between the two.
That's pretty much it!
Love,
- Elder Müller
