England Missionary Training Centre

This is the current group of teachers employed at the England MTC.

A Helpful Tip for Family and Loved Ones of Missionaries: We are often asked if missionaries can receive packages at the MTC? While we understand how much missionaries love to receive packages it can be problematic when those packages incur unexpected import duties, arrive after the missionary departs or are damaged in transit. Some have found it much more reliable to order items directly from Amazon UK which offers a next day delivery service for many products and is delivered by courier directly to the MTC! There is also a local Latter-day Saint book store who receive orders over the phone or online and who will deliver to the MTC! #EnglandMTC #CalledtoServe

After years of planning and months of construction the Multi-use Games Area is now complete and our missionaries are outside using it in this unusual British sunshine. The surface is all-weather and will provide missionaries a place to exercise come rain or shine all year round, which is a real blessing being in England!
For several years now missionaries have been encouraged to exercise daily and participate in a variety of activities that are both challenging and entertaining to support their physical and mental well-being. #EnglandMTC #CalledtoServe #MUGA

Today we said goodbye to our dear sister, friend and co-worker, Pam Seddon, who passed away suddenly two weeks ago. Pam worked at MTC in the cafeteria for almost 15 years, she loved the missionaries and they loved her, often referring to her affectionately as 'mamma pam'. She is gone from us for a season, but not forgotten. We are grateful for the knowledge of the great plan of salvation that assures us of happy reunions in the world to come.

This is our latest group. 84 missionaries from 24 countries going to 13 different missions. We had to take this picture near the temple because our normal location in the MTC was too small. What a wonderful problem to have! #EnglandMTC #Calledtoserve

Every few weeks we have a themed meal to celebrate the culture of some of our missionaries and the missions they are going to. Today is France! #EnglandMTC #CalledtoServe #Vivelafrance

We are pleased to introduce President and Sister Atkins who recently accepted a call to serve as counselors to President and Sister Warne at the England Missionary Training Centre. President and Sister Atkins have served in numerous church callings and have a wealth of church leadership experience. We are thrilled to have them join us. #EnglandMTC #CalledtoServe #ChurchofJesusChrist

Missionaries at the England MTC were treated to a rare experience this weekend when Brother David Archuleta spoke during a special musical devotional. Telling stories from his own mission in Chile and bearing testimony through song, it was a spiritual and memorable experience. #DavidArchuleta #EnglandMTC #CalledtoServe

We often have missionaries who celebrate their birthday while in the MTC. The chef always prepares a cake and there are many heartfelt expressions, including singing for each one. #EnglandMTC #CalledtoServe

Did you talk to your missionary on preparation day? Let us know about your experience here.

Following the church's missionary communication policy change last Friday, missionaries at the England MTC made their first calls home today (Preparation Day). Smiles all around! #EnglandMTC #CalledtoServe
