Hi Everyone!

Jared didn't really write a letter this week...he just answered our letters.  So...here's what he has to say about what's going on in a non-formal letter sort of way:

To Mom:

I'll start off by saying that I appreciate the pictures.

But I can't see them. oh well.

We start the day with the most filling breakfasts ever, then we go to our classroom to study. after that we do TRCs. then we do other stuff, then lunch. After that more classes then dinner, then classes, then snack, then bed. It's fun.

We attend church in the MTC. There are only 52 missionaries here. I love my district. they're really silly. 

The temple is about a 2 minute walk away. We did endowments today. It was great.

The food here is wonderful. I've eaten more here than I have eaten in the past year. You get unlimited refills.

We exercise in two groups of 26. We either play football (soccer) or ultimate frisbee.

Well, I answered all of the questions I was asked so I'll finish up here. I have a few pictures to share, but I can't send them yet, so I'll send them later.

Bye!

P.S. I love you all! 

To Dad:

I love brother McBride! He was the sub for Brother Larson when he couldn't be there.

My companion is Elder Andrews. He LOVES airsoft and he wants to be a U.S. marshal when he's older.

We have 6 missionaries in our room. Elder Andrews, Elder Pitbladdo (he lived near where Chris served), Elder Barrett (he's Scottish), Elder Wilson (He also loves airsoft, but most importantly, he's the "district scholar". He knows all the scriptures we ask him about), and Elder Baum (he's from Utah).

For the day routine, refer to Mom's letter.

Okay, I'm about to leave to go to the store. Bye! 

To Chris:

Sooo, yeah, there's about 52 missionaries here. The entire MTC is a three story hotel remodeled to fit the needs of the missionaries. it's waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better than the Provo MTC because there is a little team of chefs to cook for us and the classes are tiny and personal. Also the temple is a good 2 minute walk from the MTC building.

(A paragraph about Magic the Gathering cards...I didn't have anyone to translate for me so I took it out. :))

The weather hasn't been that bad. It's only rained once. It started when I got here and it hasn't stopped. Just kidding, but it has rained a lot. The best thing about the weather is that it's constantly 19 degree's Celsius here, whatever that means. It's always cold out and it's nice. Okay, I don't know what else to write so I'm going to get to emailing others. Bye!

To Kinsey:

So far, I really love the MTC. There are only 52 missionaries here so it's pretty nice. I really enjoy the classes. My companion is great. We're basically the best, closest, happiest, most loving district ever. The teachers are amazing and the people are so British. I love it. 

Make sure to include me in your weekly emails.

Love you! 

Cheers!
