District Conference, ect.

For District Conference we had an attendance of around 250, not including all the children running around that no one could count.  The most before was 180, so attendance is improving and the goal of making a Stake is getting closer.  Some of the people say we were sent here just to help them in particular and we think this is so.  There are a lot of people to help. 

We have added  marriage counseling to our charlas(lessons).  The couples are now to have a "date" night and not to go to sleep with out saying "Te amo".  Elder Jones offers this advice from  past experience.  I think our "date" nights were all in a gym somewhere!

We had an uninvited guest at church Sunday in the casa capilla or house made into a chapel.  A mangy black dog wandered in, walked up to the front, looked around and decided not to stay. 

Things are going well with us, we have met lots of wonderful people and are enjoying our stay here.

Marsha and Terry, I just spent the last hour going over your blog...what an adventure! My feeling has been "what a good work they are doing." It's amazing the opportunities the gospel provides. Be careful, take care and know you are in our prayers.
Hugs, Dotty and Brent
