I have served my Mission in Montevideo Uruguay 80 to 82, and I attended then the Sao Paulo CTM, (Centro de treinamento Misionario), or MTC; it was a great experience, Missionaries from all South American countries were there; I remember when we went outside to talk to the people in the street, at the Paulista Aveneu; just loved it.today Sao Paulo is a 17 million people City.
Tokyo???
Ghana? I have several Ghanian employees and they are well respected for their education pursuits and their reserved considerate manners, as well as their professionalism. I am glad to hear there is a training center in Ghana.
This will be the 2nd MTC in Central America and the 8th in Latin America besides the Spanish speaking MTC in Spain.
