2010 September - Working with leaders


Our Chimaltenango zone leaders, Elder Lowry
and Elder Judd, work well with their priesthood
leaders. Together, they planned a very creative
activity to confront a challenge Central American
Missions have - couples who want to be baptized,
but are not married. A wedding reception!


Each investigator couple had their picture taken
in front of the wedding cake.


A delicious dinner took place after two of the
thirty couples were married. Priesthood leaders
spoke on the importance of marriage to the family.


The married couples had their special dance and
then dancing by all completed the night.
Kudos to these great elders and their priesthood
leaders!!

2010 September - Guatemala Green!


The rainy season lasts from May through October
each year; it keeps Guatemala beautiful! This is
the view from the mission home of Guatemala City
and its surrounding mountains. Muy hermosa!
