First letter since he found out he cant go to Lima yet due to Visa

alright you are all porabably looking for a letter that says how peru is but if you didnt hear my visa hasnt shown up yet :( i have heard you can check the status of it online but that maybe only for those who applied for their visas online...anyways i know that everything happens for a reason and i will will probably know in the future why or it could even be possible that i will never know but whatever the case i just have to make the best with what i have  and i have been :) everything has worked out just fine.  i believe i already told you about the elder from our district that was sent home because of health issues. well since he went home we have had a trio companionship untill now. because i was the only one staying i needed a new companion and so0 now im am with the elder who comp went home earlier so i am still in tha same district and i am so grateful for that.  because i love my district! i dont think ive seen a tighter group of 19 year olds before the mtc or even here at the mtc. my new companion is elder vause he is really smart and is very obediant. he is the redhead in the group pictures of the district.  so sorry about yesterdays random email but i wasnt sure if they fixed my mailing address cause i wasnt supposed to be in the provo mtc anymore but i did get the dear elder yesterday so i guess maybe they figured it out.  thank you so much for the package! i really loved it! i have some cool ideas for the recorder so we'll see how it goes.  the temple was great this morning we did initiatories which was my first time.  i got a lot out of it and am very greatful for the opportunity to attend the temple.  also when we go to the temple we are treated with breakfast from the cafeteria.  it is soooooo much better than the food in the mtc....i have never had to use the restroom so much in my life hahah thats one reason i was looking forward to the peru mtc ha so you are probably wondering how my spanish is coming along and i feel like its coming along alright but definatly has a long way to go ha i think all day today for pday i will be doing language study just to catch up with eveyone else in the district.  now i would like to finish up by giving some words of advice.  keep doing family scripure study.  i know that all you boys may not understand what is happening when you read but if you continue to read i know the lord will bless you to begin to understand the meaning.  keep praying.  as a family and on your own.  i never, never prayed as much as i have in the mtc. and i regret that i didnt pray more before because of the many blessings that come with prayer. as it says in the scriptures heavenly father is willing to help you with whatever you need, all you have to do is ask. (james 1:5-6) well i gotta get studying but i will write some more letters to each of you when i have time later today and hopefully you will get them in the next day or so. love you all keep up the good work. keep the letters coming this way and ill keep em coming back. :P
