District 31-B. (drawing by E. Oliphant depicting each one of us)
From the first day, we became amazing friends, which I'm pretty sure happens to everyone. But unlike the majority of districts that we met, we were one of the only ones that were all assigned to the same mission. This equaled unity. It also helped that we grew even closer to our two teachers. Words can't describe how much they blessed each of our lives. We always talked about the times we would spend in Mexico and the hope that we would again be assigned to the same district or even companionship.
Well that happened. A lot actually. And each time we saw each other or got together, we would talk about our MTC days.
It wasn't a coincidence that we grew close. Nor is it chance that I still keep in contact with each of them.
Tomorrow my first companion - Elder Fornelli - is getting married in Los Angeles.
I had to come support him. So I invited my three favorite people from the MTC (Christensen, Bitton, and our teacher Adrienne).
It is spontaneous . . . but oh so great.
California here we come.
That is awesome you guys are still so close. I love this post because it makes me think of Jace. He is District Leader and sounds like he is loving it. Most of them are going to his same mission so hopefully he will make some great friends too :) Have fun in Cali! I really want to go there lately!
