Missionary Training Center and time at Nathanael's home.

We got to the Missionary Training Center (MTC) in Provo, Utah on Monday. This is the front of the MTC.

 
  Here we are at the big map pointing to the Philippines where we are assigned to serve. 

               

 This is one of the classrooms.  We had Sister Eames for our morning instructor.


 Our afternoon instructors were Brother Jex and Brother Barney.


 This is a group picture of us with some of the other Senior Missionaries.  There were three groups about this large.

We had a lot of fun at the MTC and we learned a lot.  Now we're ready for the Philippines.

Next we headed back to Nathanael's for one last weekend before our flight on Monday.



 On Saturday we went on another hike.  It was lots of fun.


 Joshua drove down from Idaho and joined us on the hike too.


 Jacob's favorite place to ride.

At the end of the hike we came up to this waterfall and hiked alongside some magnificent cliffs. You can barely see the waterfall just left of center. It was Scout Falls.


 It was really a beautiful place for hiking.

 We had a wonderful time at Nathanael and Mary-Anne's house this past week.  Thank you Nathanael and Mary-Anne for your hospitality and a great time visiting with you and the grandkids.  Now we're off for the Philippines.
