So first week in the MTC here in Johannesburg! Lets start from the beginning. I almost forgot my scriptures at the airport luckily my mom and dad are superheroes and they saved my butt! The flights were long there were an about eight other missionaries on our flight and we met up with about eight more in Atlanta. The flight here to SA was crazy long! especially when you cant watch movies or anything.  Ive found that being a missionary kinda forces you to read the scriptures haha, guess thats what i needed. We went to Mcd's and had African creme soda, its green and tastes super finky but it is really good!

The MTC! 

the Mtc is crazy here, we have a whopping 27 missionaries, crazy right?! The president and his wife are the coolest people ever and they are hilarious! There are four districts here the largest district is eight people, and Me and my companion are the zone leaders.

Everything is super chill its actually really nice! I love the teachers here and the other elders, especially the African ones are awesome. our district loves to make jokes and its great. we are mostly all together so districts don't really matter.

one of my favorite experiences so far was either hearing the prayers in different languages like sootu and zut and a name i cant pronounce, which is a lot.Or when we gave Elder ___ and elder ___ (both from Zimbabwe) some beef jerky! They lit up and devoured the whole bag it was hilarious! Another fun story was an elder(from SLC) broke the handle on the bathroom, and was locked inside.

Anyways love the mission so far and feeling the spirit! Its awesome here in SA and my accents are coming along nicely! And yes the toilets flush the other way here.

love, Elder Tucker
