Oh I have SO much to say about this “Home MTC” thing Claire is smack-dab in the middle of right now. But let’s take this thing in order and start with the prep for this Home MTC week. We got home from our trip and got right to work with all the mission prep. Getting…
An overview of how August 2022 went down!
