Well I got my travel plans last thursday. And i am leaving on monday, I have to report at the travel office at 4 am and then I will get bussed to the airport. My flight out of SLC will be departing at 715 and then I will be flying to Chicago, and then to Miami and then to Santo Domingo. So I will arrive in the Dom Reps at 830 their time about 630 our time! Which is so awesome! I have a little layover in Miami and it is my biggest one, like a little less than two hours, so I am thinking of calling from there. Which would be anywhere from 230 pm to 400 pm our time here at home. Entonces, I am way excited to go down there and see the DR and start talking to them about the Gospel and how important it is. People I talk to keep telling me that there are some big ole spiders down there "tarantulas' and it made me think of dad. So I will have to see if the rumors are true and if they are then I will take a picture of some and send them back because i know how you love spiders!
Also this week in the MTC has been awesome too. We have been getting a whole bunch of apostles this week Elder Nelson came and talked to us. And it was really cool because we got the october ensign like 2 weeks ago and were told to study it for the devotional, and so we did. It is an awesome ensign it is all about the Book of Mormon and how important and how true of a record it is. Elder Nelson then expanded more on it and told us the significance of the Book of the Mormon in conversion. It is the biggest part. Once they come to know of the truth of the Book of Mormon then they know that is of God and that Joseph Smith truly translated it through the power of God and he so God the father and Jesus Christ in the grove, and has set up Christ restored church on the earth today. So it was so awesome to hear and study so much more about the history of the Book of Mormom and it's amazing power to change hearts and its testament of Jesus Christ.
Well we are on the countdown we have about 3 and a half days left here in the MTC and it's crazy to think that we have been here for 2 months already. We are all super excited to get to go to work now and see all of this preparation here pay off. So yeah, remember to answer the phone somewhere between 230 and 4 and I might get to call you sometime before I leave the mtc too but I'm not sure. Also mom if you could dear elder me and send me my mission address that would be awesome! like maybe today or tomorrow sometime so i can give it to people in my district? Anyways I love you all, the Gospel is so true and Jesus Christ lives and loves us.
Elder Wadman
