MTC BUZZZ>>> WELCOME ELDER ARCHULETA

"It's the Day After Tomorrow" as sung by David himself. 3/28/12 is a great day to all of us who have enjoyed listening to a voice from someone whom we could relate to, a Brother of our own and now and Elder amongst us, so with that said we welcome Elder David Archuleta to the MTC this day. What a great time to be here at MTC

Things continue to grow clearer each day to me,  as does my purpose and this calling. I am blessed, as well all the other's here are, for the choice I have made to serve this Mission. I see those blessings in the eyes I look into and the voices of testimonies, my favorite sharing time.

I want my family and friends to know that I have a ever increasing Testimony of Jesus Christ. My experiences here have been great and far to numerous to mention and I know that I have chosen the right path.

Love,
Elder Draper

PS(Mom can you post Elder Archuleta's uTube Mission announcement on the blog! I, as did the world, rejoice in that moment). Love Ya

ONE BY ONE THEY DEPART....

Hi Mom, Dad, and all,
So ya it has been a pretty good week! The practices for the choir are killing me!!!! 2 of my favorite Elders left this morning for there mission! They were in the District above us and they all got reassigned because there visas had not come in! I wouldn't be surprised if I had to stay here a couple more weeks or got reassigned cause rumor is the Argentina visas are just getting slower and slower. So we will see, Ummm we are supposed to leave April 24.
Names in my district are:
Elder Travis Witherell
Elder Brennan Neilson
Elder Tanner Boyer
Me
Hermana Elise Leavitt
Hermana Leigh Andreason
Herman Amanda Fernley
Hermana Laurel Cahoon

But I still have not heard from Brelynn or Kenn, but Bromleys did write me a couple of days ago!   I am constantly writing you guys and the Robinsons! Lynette sends me cupcakes all the time which is very nice of her!

Can you do me a favor and get me LPHS address to write Sue and some teachers and could you ask Sister Hodges that like a couple days before I leave if she can like meet me by my residence and I can give her some stuff to bring back to you guys cause I have allot of stuff! 

I will probably send you a short email this afternoon.
Love ya!
Love,
Elder Draper
