The MTC

And the countdown begins! Early the on the morning of September 9th, 2015 Dallin got on a plane and then a shuttle to arrive in the MTC (Missionary Training Center) in Provo, Utah. He will spend the next two weeks at the MTC studying the scriptures and learning how to teach others the gospel. I miss him like crazy already and I keep having awesome dreams about the cool posters I will make him when he returns! Haha. But for now, Dallin has entered a new chapter of his life and I couldn't be more excited for him! His dedication and sacrifice will help so many people come to the knowledge of God and I am very proud of my selfless and courageous brother. I guess life must keep moving forward, but I know there won't be a minute that goes by where I don't miss that wonderful young man. My family appreciates your prayers, love and support immensely. It has brought me such happiness to hear of the loving words so many of you have expressed to Dallin and my family. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

I will post Dallin's MTC address once again just in case you missed it in the last post. If you have the time, I am sure Dallin would appreciate some mail. I am going to start writing my first letter after I finish this blog! I can't wait to write a missionary! 

Elder Duffy's MTC Address

Elder Dallin Jackson Kevin Duffy

NC-RAL

2005 N 900 E Unit 99

Provo UT 84602

I came across a really cool website called:dearelder.com. It is a fast, free way to write a letter to Dallin in the MTC. You type your letter in the box and push submit. Then, at the MTC, they print your letter and hand deliver it to him (if you write it before noon they will hand deliver it to him that very same day Monday-Friday!) I just tried it and I got a conformation letter saying that it worked. I love this because I know he will get it today and also its free postage which is also a plus. Here is the link for the website: http://www.dearelder.com/index/inc_name/mission_selection

Make sure to put Provo MTC as his mission. It will then ask you his title which is elder and then his first and last name. Then it will ask his Unit number which is 99 and then it will ask for his mission/mission code which is Raleigh, North Carolina. Finally it will ask for his estimated MTC departure date which I believe is: September 22nd.

Oh, and one more thing! I just thought I should include a link with more information about what the MTC is just in case you are interested in learning more: https://www.mtc.byu.edu/themtc.htm

Thanks for reading!
