Before Christmas



One of our favorite Elders, Elder Welch.  We call him the Dried Cereal Guru!!  Taken at our Christmas Zone conference in Lisbon

Visiting the Gomes family.  She insisted on a Christmas message.  We had to scramble to find our favorite Scripture in the Book of Mormon in Portuguese.  We had only planned to spend a few minutes there delivering our Christmas bread.  

The students from Faro coming to wish us a Merry Christmas.  I had just finished a call from Karma and Frank in Ghana.  The phone ran again from a member that we had been trying to get in touch with.  They were patient to wait to sing to us.

Odilia, I was on the phone with her in the picture above.  She is the women that is taking lessons and she also is my olive oil source!!  She had just given us a fresh jar of honey from her father's farm.  

Our landmark to our house on the round about where we turn up to our apartment.  It must have a jillian lights on it..
