Last Letter From The MTC!

Billy sent the family a care package from the MTC.  Mostly it was letters for everyone, however he included some black licorice for my mom and dad, some pictures, and a wonderful little newsletter he put together.

Billy's 19th birthday was on August 8th, so he was sure to send pictures of himself opening the care package we sent him. We stuffed it with some of his favorite things such as twizzlers, beef jerky and homemade cookies. We also filled it with practical birthday presents such as speakers for his CD player, stationery, pens and highlighters. He seemed to enjoy what we sent him, and we are glad he got it in time for his birthday.



Billy is leaving the MTC for India bright and early Monday morning August 18th. He is really excited to get there, however I'm not sure he is so thrilled about his 30+ hour flight. If you are planning to write him make sure you write the India address (on the right hand side of this page) so he will get it!

BREAKING NEWS...
Billy just let the family know that he will be staying in the MTC an additional week.  One of the missionaries in his district needs to have surgery, and Billy volunteered to wait to leave so that the elder did not have to travel to India by himself.  So, if you want to get a quick letter to Billy while he's still at the MTC you have one more week.

Billy, I love the photos of you at the MTC. Abbey Road is a classic and you are as well. I love the bare feet! Keep smiling and sharing your stories. May the Lord continue to bless you! Love, Ann
