I’ve been here now for two weeks and it has been great.  The MTC is awesome and we are known as the party district because everyone wants to come hang out with us in our room (ha ha).   I have lost about 20 pounds.  The food here is really healthy, very good, and the portion sizes are controlled.   I am learning a lot in the MTC.  Right now I am learning a language/dialect called Zulu and another one that I am not even sure how to spell yet!  We went to the temple the other day and it was so great!
My testimony has grown so much during my time here.  I have changed so much and I feel the spirit with me all day and the spirit prompts me on what to say and it just makes all the difference.  My companion and I got to teach Jeffery R. Holland, and he called us apostles with a lower case “a”.  How cool is that! I have been working with 4 investigators one of them we got to come to church with us. It was awesome.  The others are pretty close to being baptized!  
I miss everyone and pray for my family daily. I pray that they will be safe, that there will be peace at home, and the spirit will rest upon you and protect you and guide you in the way that the lord would have you follow.
