Sister Comaduran: Indiana Indianapolis Mission

Tuesday, September 23, 2025 Missionary Training Center Provo, Utah Hello Everyone!  I'm super excited to share how the first week of my mission has been!  Wednesday 9/17: I had to be up so early in the morning to catch my flight to the MTC!  We got there a little late, so our goodbyes were rushed, which I think was a blessing because if we had more time I would have been in tears.
