2nd Week at the MTC

(Elder Petersen)


For some reason I cannot send this email to more than 3 people so I need you to forward the email along.

I have had a great but tiring week. I got to hear a devotional from Tad R. Callister on Sunday it was a great talk that he gave. He talked solely about the Book of Mormon and what anti-LDS people say about how the Book of Mormon is false. His main point in the talk was how science and the Book of Mormon are good friends because whenever someone says that the Book of Mormon is false based on specific reasons it only takes science time to discover that what was said in the Book of Mormon is actually real but my favorite part about it is when at the very end he said that even though science is constantly proving it true the only way for you to know that it is true is for you to read the Book of Mormon. We got to listen to David A. Bednar tonight, it was such a great talk and the think that I loved most about it was the fact that all that is required of me or any missionary is that we are only required to be good not perfect. As Elder Bednar said be good boys and good girls so do what you know is right not what our silly brains try and convince us our right. Nothing can be perfect no lesson, no talk, no marriage, no person all that you can be is good and because that is all that is required of us the Holy Ghost will fill in the gaps and make them feel so much better to everyone who sees the talk, sees the lesson, or sees you as a missionary I say these things in the name of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, Amen. Love you all! Slightly less than 2 years left on my mission. See you when I get back.
