Adjusted MTC Training

Samuel received an email from the Mission Department:

Dear Missionary,

Congratulations on your call to serve as a full-time missionary. As announced by the First Presidency and Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, all missionaries will participate in an online MTC experience until risks associated with COVID-19 subside. This training will take place through videoconference technology in your home or another suitable location.

Online training will begin on your originally scheduled MTC start date unless you are specifically notified otherwise. You will learn together with a district of up to eight missionaries and two assigned teachers. You will participate in online instruction with your district for up to six hours per day. You will have an assigned companion in your district with whom you will participate in online companion study and practice for one hour each day. You will also be assigned to conduct one hour of personal study each day and to complete practice assignments throughout the day.

You will receive an email with additional instructions three weeks prior to your scheduled start date. In the meantime, answers to most general questions related to online training can be found here:  Online MTC Training: Frequently Asked Questions

We are grateful for your desire to join in this significant work!
