Well, we have been planning our missionary activity with the ward mission leader. We have our invitations and we will be doing our parts to help people fill out their family tree sheets. We also made arrangements with a local cyber (internet shop) so our members can use it for two hours. It will be like having our own family history center. The members are pretty "into" doing the family history work. We did it with a few in their homes for family home evening. The wife of the branch president told us she wouldn't be entering the cemetery to look up dates of death. Her husband seemed amped to do it. haha. We had a really good satellite broadcast for our area. Elder Scott was in Buenos Aires for the broadcast to Argentina, Paraguay, and Uruguay. They did a questions and answers type of thing. They dedicated 30 minutes to the people in the audience and then an hour for phone calls from the three countries. I didn't know that Elder Scott served in Uruguay. He speaks good Spanish. He and the area presidency answered the questions from all sorts of people. The broadcast was this last Saturday. The following day on Sunday we taught a young married couple. They had recently moved into the area and liked going to the plaza in centro. They had been contacted by the missionaries in centro about five times and we had set an appointment with them for Sunday. They are really amazing. It has been a while since we've taught people that understood everything we share with them. They told us yesterday that they may be moving back to the capital. We now pray every night that they stay. haha. I know that they will progress if we can teach them more. In answer to the Christmas question by mom, I would like some casino chips or dice to give as gifts to the people that I meet. I think it would be a nice gift/memory for my member friends. I will take a picture of my shoes and post it next week. The heat is coming back and it is obnoxious. Love you all. Hasta la vista.
