MTC

CJ reported to the MTC on 1/27/2010 and embarked on the beginning of his new adventure..MTC PROVO. He was assigned a companion and attended orientation and meetings where he was able to sit just a few feet from Pres. Uchdorf and listen to his wise words of wisdom to new missionaries. The number one piece of advise from C.J.'s grandfather as well as others was "Be Obedient." And these are words that C.J. is determined to live by. Therefore, he has asked that we should forward his e-mails to any that want to read them, but he will only respond by written hand, as he has been counseled to only e-mail is family.

Before arriving at the MTC, we enjoyed time with family (and Seth) at the Outback in Orem. A walk through the University Mall was the chosen activity for the morning of, and the moments were made memorable as a young boy walked slowly by C.J., staring, then running to his mom saying "Mom, is that a missionary?"
