Elder Cahoon entered the Provo, Utah MTC (Missionary Training Center) on Wednesday, March 2, 2016. It was a tearful but exciting day for him. His dad and I received a quick email the next day letting us know all was well. Normally he will only be able to write on his P day (preparation day) which is usually on a Monday, but since it was his first full day at the MTC he was allowed to write just to us. Elder Cahoon said that he is loving the MTC and the spirit is so strong there. He is in a trio and has two companions instead of just one (Elder Pineiro and Elder Blanding). He loves being in a trio because they are able to share so much more with each other during companionship study. He also is a district leader for his branch which gives him more responsibility, but he said he's glad for the opportunity. He said he is amazed how quickly he is learning to memorize scriptures just after the first day.
