Denning, Jonathon

Hey guys hope you all are doing well! On Thursday we had to checkout of the MTC and it was so sad to say goodbye to all my friends in our district while we were on the train to the airport i was lowkey freaking out because this was game time but thankfully I made it to Nebraska on Thursday and when we got here we met the mission president and we drove to their house and they fed us food that was ten time better than the MTC food so everyone was super happy for that after we had dinner all the new missionaries introduced themselves but after dinner they took us to a hotel to sleep for the night when we woke up the next morning they took us to the mission office and there they told us what area we are in and who our trainer is. My first area that I get to serve in is a little town in Iowa called Atlantic. I won't lie coming from Salt Lake this little town is like a ghost town but the apartment is lit and I guess that it's the only one in the mission that has wifi and washer and d...

Made it through my first full week at the mtc and it went by super fast and when people say that the days feel like weeks and the weeks feel like days is sooo true It's crazy to think that i will be in the actual field in less than a week but honestly I am ready I'm stating to get bored of the classes  But I am super glad that i have been able to go to the temple like almost ever day this week but that is like twice as much as I normally go But the end of this week as kinda sucked because I woke up with a brutal kink in my neck and I've been feeling it for like past 2 days and I know you all will laugh but I passed out this morning because i had a bloody nose but I think the main reason is because I hadn't had anything to to eat because the food sucks  But other than that I been good  Love yall Elder Denning  

Hey yall!  This is going to be a short email but I survived and made it to my first p day even though I had gotten here only two days before but honestly I have loved it here.  The food could be better but I have enjoyed being here in person much more than home mtc. When i first got here all the other missionaries that have already been here for awhile were super nice and welcoming which helped me kind of get settled in. When I had gotten all my stuff that I need for the mission I had someone that was showing me to my dorm and at first he took me to the wrong residence hall eventually we got to the right one and I met the people that I am rooming with. They are pretty cool people from our branch.  I have only been here for 2 days but I have been able to see so many of my friends here such as Elder Sherwood, Elder Callister, Elder Madsen, Elder Tagge and bunch of other people. Although I was there only for half the day, Wednesday felt like forever. And it was weird meeting...
