August 1, 2011: High Points of the Week

Family,
Let me tell you some of the high points of things going this week....
1. Yesterday the last of the children in the Herrera family, Juan Carlos, was baptized and confirmed by his dad! What a wonderful moment for us to see their family be complete and with the hope of being sealed forever in a year. They are so happy and Carmen, the mom, was just put in the Relief Society presidency and Juan Carlos, the dad, was just put in the Young Mens pres. We are so happy.
2. We went to Machala this week on a little tour as the nurses and it was quite fun and very busy. We left about 3:30 am and the whole day we spent in all the individual sectors of the missionaries going around talking to the Relief Society presidents to talk to them about the food they prepare for the missionaries. It was funny because we would start in one sector with a companionship and they would drop us off in the next sector with the next companionship. We did that all day and we got a great tour of the town there. It was fun to walk with each of the missionaries in their sectors and see how different the mission is in their part of Ecuador. It was also fun to visit many of the members and get to know them. My companion and I also stayed in a hotel...I think the first and last time that will happen in the mission...but it was kinda fun! President says that he thinks he wants us to go around to all sectors in the whole mission and do the same thing. Wow, it should be an adventure!
