Hello Everyone,
The MTC is a cool place to be on
Christmas.  Since my P-day is Tuesday and we are just having devotionals
on Sunday pretty much, this is about as close to a weekend as I am going to
have for a long time.  We are having General Authority devotionals both
Christmas Eve night and Christmas day.  They don't tell who it is for
security reasons so obviously rumors abound.  From one person or another
you can basically hear that any of the Quorum of the Twelve or the First Presidency
are coming; or if you talk to the right person, probably, that all of them are
coming.  The most common rumored speakers are President Uchtdorf and Elder
Bednar, but there is no weight to these rumors in the slightest.  Whoever
it is, the only good thing about being in Provo 
instead of Sao Paulo 
In other news there is no word on my
visa.  No one in my district has received one and only two of the eleven
in the district older (by older I mean been here longer) than us in our zone
have there's.  But it seems to be hit and miss.  Out of the two
districts that entered with Elder Hayden Hedworth, an elder from my home ward
also going to Brazil 
Overall the MTC is simply the MTC.
 We practice and learn and things go on faster and slower than you would
ever think they could at the same time.  This is a nice place but I hope I
leave on time.  Six weeks is enough.  I can't wait to actually be a
missionary in the field, whether in Ribeirao Preto 
or visa waiting in the US
