I am just going to quickly update his blog for him.
He entered the MTC today and it was a great experience. He was really excited after we took a quick look at the MTC the night before. Then when we got there, he was even more excited that it was finally here and the wait was over. We even saw Elder Dubin from our old Moorpark ward as he passed by us.
It definitely was tough saying the last goodbye and getting one last hug, but it was also very good and such a sweet feeling of peace knowing that he is doing what he wants to do and has covenanted with the Lord to do.
For all of you that told him that I would be the worst one with my crying there, you were wrong! I did my usual. There were tears flowing but no blubbering or anything! Yeah!
We all miss him already, but this is what we have hoped for all of his life. That he would be willing and worthy and have a strong testimony of the gospel and want to share it with others. He has worked hard and made the good choices that he has needed to so that this day would come! He hopes that you will all write to him. His address is:
Elder Logan Rahn
MTC Mailbox # 183
JPN_KOB 0720
2005 N 900 E.
Provo,Utah 84604-1793
You can write to him in the MTC until he leaves there on July 20th. If you use DearElder.com it will usually get there that day or the next and it is free in the MTC.
That sounds like a great experience. I already sent off a letter though DearElder.com and Derek and I delivered a package. Good stuff! Nice job updating the blog. :) I am excited to hear of the many great, and challenging, experiences Elder Rahn and his family will have. Keep up the good work. Love you guys!
