Emily started this weeks email by thanking my parents for sacrificing everything and keeping it all together to raise her in this wonderful gospel. We learned a little more about her two companions and the difference in their backgrounds and family life. She said how much she loves her 'hermanas' even though it is difficult at times. We can tell Em has had a lot of practice teaching lessons this week but seems to be getting comfortable with it.
All the mission presidents were at the MTC for a seminar this week and Emily reported that apostles and the prophet were there all week as well. Emily got to watch The Other Side of Heaven and The Testaments over the weekend and sounded pretty excited about it. She also seemed really touched by a talk she had read from Elder Bednar the Christmas before and talked a lot about the difference of having a testimony and truly being converted to the gospel. She said she loves the MTC and is so blessed to be given the opportunity to serve god for two years and help other come unto Christ.
In other news this week, Em said she's sick of the food and looks forward to having ice cream on Wednesdays and Sundays. Emily also had a doctors appointment this week for a knee checkup and everything went fine. A smoothie and card were waiting for her when she got there because it was right by my mom's office, but we all refrained from visiting while she was there. Emily left her camera card with one of the nurses and my mom went and got it later that evening. These were some of the pictures from it, we think its her zone/district, companions and mission presidents.
