Sixty-five
December 1st, 2008
Sixty-five. That’s how many days I have until I enter the MTC. And I really can’t believe it’s coming so soon.
This will also be my last Christmas here in Montreal for another two years. I tell myself I won’t miss it, but a part of me thinks I will. (Well at the very least, I won’t miss the cold!)
This blog will be maintained by me for now, and once I leave, by my parents. I’ll talk about the things I’m doing to prepare, share whatever information I can, and try by best to entertain, so I hope it will be interesting to some. No promises, but I’ll try my best, mmkay?
So on that note, let me tell you about what I’m doing this month. I’ve decided to repeat the same reading I did in August of this year, with a few changes. When I did it then, it was a great experience, and I know it can turn out likewise this month.
This month, the plan is to read the following (links are to online versions of the texts):
- The Book of Mormon
- The Doctrine & Covenants
- The Pearl of Great Price
- The New Testament
- Preach My Gospel
- Jesus The Christ
It’s 2310 pages total, and 77 pages per day. That’s a lot, no doubt, but it’s notably less than the 104 pages I had in August, so it’s perfectly doable.
Now you’ll have to excuse me, I’ve got some reading to do! Check out the links on the home page to find out more about me and my mission, if you’re interested.
