It turns out that we have a branch just down the road from where we are living. It's about a 40 minute walk to a small town called Benjamin Aceval. They have a small church building with an even smaller branch. The members are warm and friendly. My Spanish is coming along slowly, but priesthood meeting was in the local language of Guarani, so that didn't help. We enjoyed the meetings and look forward to getting better acquainted with the branch members here.
We're excited for conference this upcoming weekend. We haven't decided if we are going to travel with the members to the stake center in Asuncion or just watch it online from home. Either way, we are looking forward to a great weekend.
That's awesome that a branch is so close! How are you guys doing? I miss you!
ReplyDeleteSaw your blog on your google gmail thing this morning. You guys rock! How awesome to be spending time there....not sure what you're doing quite yet but the few posts I've read sound awesome. And it's fun to see pictures of your cute wife. I never had the chance to meet her!
ReplyDeleteWhen were you guys there in Benjamin Aceval? I was there in september/october of 2010.
