Called to Serve...Off to Houston!! |
Well, Elder Tidwell left
the MTC this morning and has arrived safely in Texas! Not only was I able to
email with him Monday and Tuesday, I also got to talk to him on the phone
before he left for Texas and after he landed and was waiting for transportation
with his Mission President. What a blessing to have had this time to
communicate with him! Funny thing, he already commented on the humidity and he
hasn't even left the airport yet! The weather will be quite a change for him!!
He is doing great and is excited to meet his trainer and get to work. When I
got off the phone with him he was headed to the mission home for orientation
where he will stay overnight and then will be off to his area where he will
serve. It is amazing the changes that have already occurred in just 6 weeks in
the MTC! He really is an amazing young man and I can't wait to hear about all
of his experiences. As soon as I get his address, I will update you all. Below is his email from yesterday while he was preparing to
leave.
Hey guys!
It’s great to be emailing you again! I leave the MTC tomorrow around 4:30 in
the morning and it’s so crazy to think about leaving! This place has become
almost like a home away from home and I have to leave it again. I'm really
excited for Houston though and to meet my missionary trainer!! The past two
days have by far been the most difficult while here. Seeing Elder Hess and all
my other district members leave was so hard for me. I didn't think it was real
until they were all gone. They all have had such an impact on my life and I
love them all soo much! I wouldn't have ever wanted another district or in my
words family. I can’t wait for us all to get back and tell our stories on how
we took part in changing the world. :) I’m so thankful for the family and
friends in my life who have supported me and I love you all so much!
Next time you hear from me I’ll be in my first week in Texas! So until then!! I’ll talk to you guys soon!
