What is the Purpose of the MTC

As you may imagine the MTC is a place where missionaries train to be able to teach the Gospel.


It is a place for the Missionaries to learn more about the Gospel


They study the Doctrine of Christ which encompasses Faith, Repentance, Baptism, The Holy Ghost and Persevering to the End 


FAMILIES CAN BE FOREVER



We learn of the importance of Families 
(This Elder grew up in USA and was reunited when his mother made the Bus trip all the way from Burkina Faso to the MTC, to see him after many years before he started to serve his mission)



Siblings, Elder and Sister Kaitell meet for a few minutes at the Ghana Accra Temple. She has been serving in the Ghana Accra Mission. Her brother will serve in their home country of Nigeria when he completes the MTC in 5 days.


WE TRY VERY HARD TO MAKE THE TEMPLE A MEANINGFUL EXPERIENCE FOR THE  MISSIONARIES. THIS PAST WEEK MANY WERE ABLE TO DO BAPTISMS AND ENDOWMENTS FOR FAMILY MEMBERS. SISTER RAZAVA FROM MADAGASCAR WAS ABLE TO WITNESS PROXY SEALING FOR HER DECEASED PARENTS THEN WAS SEALED TO THEM HERSELF.









THIS IS A TRULY INTERNATIONAL GROUP
FROM LEFT TO RIGHT ... SOUTH AFRICA, PHILIPPINES, KENYA, MALAWI, SOUTH AFRICA, IVORY COAST, SOUTH AFRICA, FIJI, AND THE U.S.
