Wednesday, September 6, 2017. I needed to write down the date so I can know what day it is. Clark and I woke and my watch displayed 6:02. We turned on the light and got up to get ready for the day when I checked the time on my phone and it said 3:30 am. Laughing and grateful as we turned off the lights and went back to bed. We slept till just after 6 am. The best night sleep for a few days. Yay! We had breakfast at 7 am, training started at 8 am. All of our training is done with young people around 23 years old. I am amazed at the knowledge of the gospel and scriptures and humbleness our teachers. We were taught how to tag and highlight in the Gospel Library. We will have more tech lessons tomorrow. Who said you can't teach an old dog new tricks.
We spent the afternoon teaching Elder and Sister Hicks and them teaching us. We were assigned to give a 20 minute lesson. It went so fast when you are having a spiritual experiences. Preach My Gospel is amazing in how you teach the gospel. Brother Hick
told me after we taught our lesson that he loved how I taught and how he could feel the spirit. I was very touched by the compliment. Just that comment has given me so much confidence. It has been a tender mercy getting to know the Hicks.
We are having many tender mercies as we talk to the Elders and Sisters and find out their stories of where they live and where are they going on their mission. The Elder on Elder Wallace's left kept telling us that we were "living the dream" going on a mission with a spouse. He must of said it at least four times. We decided we needed a picture with these Elders. They are going to Atlanta Georgia on their mission. We met these young men while touring the new MTC building. There is so much light that is radiated from outside the building with all the large windows while light radiates from the missionaries on the inside.
Here is one of 12 murals in the new MTC building. On the wall opposite of the mural is the person in the picture's name with a scripture and question that you can ask yourself. It is an actual picture that is copied on material and has back lighting.

Chandelier hanging in the new MTC Building. The artist that designed the chandelier is a not a mormon. It is depicting the restoration of the gospel. Look at the tiny lights at the end of the chandelier. Beautiful!
We were able to walk around the Provo Temple tonight. I don't remember the fountains and the beautiful setting.
