Pictures at the MTC
Here are some photos of the people Elder Colton spent most of his time with at the MTC. There is a picture of his district and zone. I sent him a fiesta in a box for Cinco de Mayo, which fortunately fell on his P-day. He had a pinata stuffed with full sized candy bars. Lucky pinata breaking mustaches, a big bag of tortilla chips, salsa, and apple beer. He had an awesome companion Elder Knighton-they had some great talks and experiences. They got to fly out together to Charlotte.
Like children who have lost their way, Alone and comfortless we wander. Stumbling through woods that grow deep and ever darker, With no direction, we cry for help and hear our pleas echo through the canyons. Is there anyone who can hear us? Then, like a rushing wind, a voice whispers to our heart. And through tear-filled eyes, we see an outstretched hand, there to lead us home. Though swirling streams may block our way and slippery stones betray our feet, He leads us on. He knows the way, His feet are sure, And in Him we find safe passage
