Before heading off to the MTC, Sister Cottrell had an opportunity to visit Temple Square in Salt Lake City and spend a couple of days with her Great Aunt and Uncle Ovard who live in South Jordan.
Apparently all went well at the drop off - they were given about 30 seconds to say their farewells and Sister Cottrell was off with an escort into the MTC.
We have since found out that her preparation day (P-Day) is on Wednesdays, so keep an eye out for updates on Wednesdays or Thursdays. She was able to send a quick e-mail on the day she entered the MTC to let us know that she made it and was doing well. And then on Saturday she sent another short e-mail letting us know that about her p-day. She has two companions, Sister Bischoff and sister Vliet who were described as "wonderful". The also shares a room with two additional sisters, Sister Mauberry and Sister Miller.
