"Nothing happens in missionary work until you find someone to teach" (Preach My Gospel, 156). We had just completed a meeting with President Hernandez of the Tuxtepec Stake in the Moctezuma Chapel. We gave Elder Preston, Santa Rosa, CA and Elder Badillo, Mexico City, a ride to their area and dropped them off. We drove about 100 yards away and in the rear-view mirror I noticed they were talking with a young man who happened along the dirt road. With the zoom lens I was able to capture two missionaries doing what real missionaries do--talking with everyone they can.
i can't remember how i found your blog.
ReplyDeletebut i do know that i felt the spirit so strongly when i saw this photo.
in my mind, i just substituted my son's face in place of elder preston's.
he's serving in the mexico city north mission and this is what i picture him doing there.
thanks for sharing!
This really is a remarkable photo.
