The last couple weeks have been busy, busy weeks with a lot of changes and more than a few challenges! New missionaries came to the mission, some missionaries completed their missions and went home, the Area President, Elder Valenzuela, and his wife, came for a mission tour, and there have been a few stake conferences within the mission. A busy time, indeed!
At the recent Colonia Dublan Stake Conference the leaders had a flower to be given to each investigator or recently baptized member and they reserved the front four rows of the chapel for them to sit. After they had prepared a meal for them and the missionaries along with Presidente y Hermana Henke and the Stake Presidency and wives. It was all really nice. The rows completely filled up and extra chairs had to be added. The missionaries had 27 investigators there!
