Oh how sweet the first email is!

Finally got to email with Jessica on Wednesday. P-day is Wednesday. She said she loves her companions, yes companions, Hermana Tameilua and Hermana LeSueur (see pictures).  Jessica needs two sisters to keep her in line. I asked where they are from but she didn't answer. There are five in her apartment, all going to the same mission as her. They are at the west campus in the Wyview apartments, so they are separate from the main MTC. Everyone speaks Spanish. And they have their own kitchen and bathroom. A lot different from what I experienced when I was there. She hates the food and asked that food be sent. Coca Crispies and Swedish Fish and whatever else we can think of. Not sure if they can cook (I'm assuming no) or if they have a microwave or fridge (I did see a fridge in her classroom, but not sure if they can use it). She loves her district, all going to her mission. That is so nice because then when you're out in the field you get separated and don't see each other except for zone or mission conferences, so when you go to conferences it's fun to see one another. They can leave the MTC to Brigham's Landing (not sure what that is), but the rest of the MTC doesn't have that privilege. She let me know about dearelder.com (first missionary so I had no clue what that was), but it sends same day letters to them. Put you home address if you want her to write back. She said to use it.  This is her official MTC address:

Sister Jess Heinz

SEP 15 MEX-MEXW

2023 N 900 E Unit 841

Provo, UT 84602

Please use this address for letters and packages while in the MTC.  

Hermana LeSueur and Hermana Heinz and Hermana Tameilua

She didn't tell me the names of the elders. I'm assuming this is her district?

Her classroom. 

The sisters in her room at the Provo Temple.

I can finally breathe knowing that she is happy and doing well.  I'm so proud of her and love her so much. It's easier to miss her when I know she is where she is supposed to be. I'm so excited for all the experiences she has had and the many more she is going to have. Excited to see the woman she will become. I'll post when I hear any good news, but it is the MTC and their routine is the same everyday. Drop her a line.
