MTC

We didn't hear from Alex while he was in the Johannesburg MTC. Not because Alex didn't write, but because it takes a month to get a letter from South Africa to Kaysville. He wrote the first night he arrived, but we didn't get his letter, via snail mail, until he was in the mission field. I can't begin to say how worried we were since we didn't hear anything from him or the MTC. Finally, Bishop Satchwell called the Missionary Travel Office just to confirm that Alex's group did arrive safely. It was a long month of checking e-mails and jumping when the phone rang. Of course, all was well and it was only our patience that was tested. These are MTC photos that arrived to us on photobucket once Alex was safely established in the mission field.
