Here are some random pictures of the past month to catch you up on what we have been doing.

On May 25th Imna was baptized by her boyfriend, Luis in Vecindario.  It was such a great night!  She is such a wonderful person and we are so happy that she was baptized!  They are both in our JAS group!









This was at our District Conference a couple of weeks ago.  The area President, President Texiera, came to see if we can become a stake.  We still don't know the verdict but it was a wonderful conference.  President and Sister Jackson also came down for it.  Here we are with Hermana Zitting and Hermana Floyd who both serve in Las Palmas with us!  We love them!







A couple of weeks ago we had a really fun P-day with the Las Palmas Elders and Hermanas and also the Telde Hermanas playing volleyball and eating gelato.  Here are the Las Palmas Elders and the Telde Hermanas enjoying the wonderful gelato here in the Canaries!











Last week was Elder Rockwood and Elder Pugh's birthdays.  After district meeting we all had lunch at this wonderful all you can eat Chinese restaurant.  It was amazing!!  Here is the best district in the whole entire mission!!  We love them all!












A couple of weeks ago we had pizza for FHE and taught them how to play "Capture the Flag".  All were a huge hit!  Here I am bringing the pizza's to the JAS center.   Ten minutes later all of these pizzas were gone!!








We were given the assignment to inspect all of the missionaries piso's in our district.  We found out that the Hermanas piso's didn't have good study chairs.  So we brought some comfortable chairs to the Las Palmas Hermanas.  The elevators are very small here so Hermana Zitting decided to make use of the chair on her way up to her piso.  Of course, she received a phone call on her way up!  The Hermanas love their "new, used chairs" to study in!  They have told me that they have a hard time keeping awake in them!











Here is John, one of our young adults, blowing out his candles on his birthday cake after institute.












Here we are at Imna's baptism in vencidario!  We brought all of our young adults from Las Palmas.  Luis's Aunt is also in the picture.  As you can see, we all had to squeeze in the picture!

  1. I love reading about your mission!! I wish I was in your mission:) I am so glad that you are having such a good time and having so much success. The missionaries are so lucky to have you taking care of them. They will want to come see you even after their missions are over- they will be life long friends. Of course the members there will feel the same. What a blessing you are to so many people. You are awesome!!
    Love,
    The Smack's
