The baptismal font for the areas where we rent our chapels. I bet that water from that hose isn't very warm. It makes you appreciate the common conviences of an LDS chapel.
Elder Rodriguez about to baptize Brother Carlos Figueroa in Justo Daract in the outdoor baptismal font.
I went to check out a pension in Alvear, the pension of the Zone Leaders. Usually I go with trepidation because most of the time (sorry to say this moms) I am extremely disappointed with the cleanliness of the apartments. But these young men surprised me with a very clean pension. I was delighted. (left) Elder Abella, Moncur, Aparcana, Medina, Fowler, Reynolds. Elders Aparcana and Reynolds, the traveling assistants were there staying with the four Elders and were the lucky recipients of a clean pension.
The San Juan zone were is good form. They all were happy and glad to see President. Elder Bigelow and Hopkin are doing a great job of creating "animo" in their Elders.
I don't know why we took such a formal picture in Chimbas with the zone, but Elders Frischknecht and Gomez (Zone Leaders) had make this special sign and they wanted to show it off. It had the names of all of the missionaries. The leaders love to show solidarity in their zones, which just makes missionary work all the more fun (which it should be). Oh, by the way, Presidents name tag was on his suit coat which we made him take off.
Some Maipu Elders waiting in the office for their interviews with President and me. I always have a little quiz during my interview time, and check the needs for the pension, check the english language cards for the Latinos and give them their english homework, and last but not least I check their daily planners. Recorded in the back are their "spendings, or gastos" which shows me they are spending their money properly.(left) Elders Garcia, Fielding, Barton, Guillen
Godoy Cruz zone on preparation day at the zoo. They had a great time, and the weather was perfect. Nothing nicer than a spring day in Mendoza. Zone Leaders Elders Robinson and Lucas are way back on the flag pole, and can hardly be seen.
The Hermanas at the zoo. I haven't seen these missionaries this happy in a long time. It must be that they aren't in nylons, skirts and walking shoes.(left) Hermana Billena (mini missionary), Astorga, Richins, Whitmore, Kartchner, Sollis.
