Missionaries Prepare To Leave the MTC


Elder and Sister Malmrose Bid Farewell to the Ghana MTC

Sister Malmrose shared this poem she wrote with the departing missionaries

The time has come for you dear ones
To leave the MTC
You've studied hard and met new friends,
And now you turn the key.
You venture out to meet the world,
And share with them your love.
You bring to them what they need most,
Christ's Gospel from above.
Remember each and every day,
How much you mean to us.
And do your best, obedient be,
And never break this trust.
For you are the Savior's messenger,
His Spirit will be strong.
To guide, protect and testify.
He'll never lead you wrong.
So go forth in faith and day by day,
Work hard but have some fun, And in the end you'll hear him say,
My dearest one, "Well done."
Sister Malmrose
