Hey Family-- this is Long Zhong Lao Just hagging out here in the mTc--- its fun-- we have had a grand week- it was the mission presidents training- so meals lines we so long- they went out the building and wraped around other buildings- it took forever and we were always late getting to where we needed to be.Tuesday was probley the best day at the mTc we have had!! It was Awesome!!!--- we got in the choir to make sure we got a seat in the room-- everyone new Elder Hollend was coming bacause of Steve Allen-- the sunday before he gave a great talk but told everyone he was coming!. Out district always know whos coming because we have inside sources- Anyways ony about 300 missionaries got in the room becasue of so many Mission Presidents- we were waiting for Elder Hollend to come in and then we watched Elders, Perry, uchtorfe, scott, eyring,ballared, and holland. So we had half of the 12 in the room with us! Elder Hollend gave a awesome talk on the atonment and everyone in the room was crying their eyes out. the spirit was really strong-- i dont have my notes with me but i will send you some later on-- the closing prayer was really good but the Elder couldent geet through iit and started crying and then everyone started crying again-- when he finished Elder Hollend and ballared gave him big hugges and kissed him on the cheek. Why couldent i give the closing prayer!!?? We always go back to our class room and go over the notes we had and we had a testamony meeting!! lots of fun!!Our Lesson was great on Saturday-- I have a stronger testamony of the gift of inturpritaion of tounges!! we were teaching a native and he talked different then we were used to- but we could understand alot of what he was saying-- at least enough to answer his questions---Well times almost gone-- i love you all thank you for everything!!!!-Long Zhong Lao
