I made it to the MTC and now I'm finishing my 6th day here! Time has flown by it feels like a just got here yesterday haha :)
It's so amazing and the Spirit is so strong all the time!
I can introduce myself, meet someone, pray, and testify in Portuguese already which is seriously a miracle #thegiftoftongues because it's only been 6 days. I gave my first lesson in Portuguese on Saturday which was CRAZY but it actually went pretty well surprisingly haha!
We spend hours in class everyday so it's super fun going to breakfast, lunch, and dinner with my zone and district. We're all already so close and they're seriously all such blessings! We have three Australians in my district which is just the coolest thing ever because I'm low key obsessed with their accents! I'm trying to perfect my Australian accent but so far it's not very good haha!
I have run into so many elders and sister from BYU, from Iowa, and from Logan. Sister (Jewel) Weathers is on the same floor as me in our residency hall! I ran into Sister Allison from Waukee, Iowa! I saw Sister (Mikayla) Grouix from Iowa! And I also saw Sister (Afton) Mann who is going to serve in Albania! I love seeing missionaries who I know in the MTC.
Today is P-day so we had the opportunity to go to the temple and I gotta say, GO TO THE TEMPLE! It is seriously such a blessing in my life to live by a temple so if you live by one... GO! The blessings that come from the temple are unexplainable.
There is a video of a talk given at the MTC by Elder Bednar called "The Character of Christ"! I promise you it will change your life! If you watch it, watch the whole thing! I promise you it's worth it. It gave me a whole new perspective on Christ and my purpose in life.
Eu sei que Jesus Cristo e o filho de Deus. Deus e nosso Pai Celesial e nos amao-lo. (my Portuguese is a little sketch and l haven't figured out how to type the accent marks on a US keyboard yet haha) :)
I would love to hear from all of you! It's so fun hearing from everybody so please shoot me an email at tayler.cannon@missionary.org! Don't forget that Tayler is spelled with an "E" instead of an "O" haha otherwise I won't get the emails:)
I miss you so so much! Have a great week!
Love,
Sister Cannon
Te amo!!
