Entering the MTC

Cody entered the Missionary Training Center in Provo, UT on 23 June, at 130.

Lori, Cody and CJ drove over to UT on the 20th to visit with family. They stayed with Uncle John and Aunt Windy Hasson in Pleasant Grove, UT. Grandma Mullen was also up from Las Vegas.

On the 21st everyone went to Ogden to visit with Grandma Hunt. While they were in the area they swung by Roy, UT to visit with Mike and Vicky Hunt.

Cody has been wearing his suit and getting acclimated to the missionary lifestyle. He had given up his phone on the 2oth when he was set apart as a missionary. On the way to UT he watched rated G movies to make the time pass by.

On the morning of the 23rd Cody put on his suit and tie and was off for Provo. He went a little early so he could get some pictures by the sign and see his cousin, Benetton Hunt who was reporting for his mission the same day. A lot of good pictures by the MTC sign and by the Provo Temple were taken. Lori was a trooper when the time finally came to say good bye.

We all love Cody and are proud of his desire to serve the Lord for two years. Say a prayer for him and keep this young man in your thoughts.

Elder Troxler

20 June 2010
Cody Troxler spoke in Sacrament Meeting of the Oakwood Ward. His talk was about "Honoring our Heavenly Father." He shared a story about going not just the extra mile but a second mile, developing Christ like attributes which brings us closer Heavenly Father, and talked about the Duty to God program. He closed with discussing how he will apply these to his mission and Cody bore his testimony.

Friends and family gathered at the McCoy home, joined with the Burton family, to say farewell to their missionaries. Food, fellowship, and fun was had by all.

At 845pm MST Cody was set apart as a missionary to serve in the Arizona Phoenix Mission by the Colorado Springs East Stake President, President Muirhead. A blessing was given and Cody became Elder Troxler for the next two years.

Elder Troxler, Mom, and CJ will drive to Pleasant Grove, UT to visit the Hasson Family. Cody reports to the MTC on 23 June at 130pm.
