Translation

Actually, it is not for 1000 days. It is just that 3 years times 365 days plus June 27 through June 30, 2008 equals 1098 days, and that is way too cumbersome to convert into a blog headline. Futhermore, our release date will not be determined until May or June of 2011. Therefore, 1000 Days sounded just about right, more or less. Having noted all that, we are humbled and thrilled (Pres. Uchtdorf would refer to the feeling as "joyfully overwhelmed") about having this marvelous opportunity to serve in La Mision Mexico Veracruz.

In Baxcaxbaltepec, Cerro de Las Iguanas, or Hill of the Iguanas, the branch president is a high councilor named Dr. Rojas. He is an M.D. He was ordained a high priest when he lived in Minatitlán in about 1975, if my memory is right. The man to ordained him to that office was a visiting Apostle named Gordon Bittner Hinckley. Here President Rojas is pictured with the president of the teachers and the president of the deacons quorums. They are also the only two active young men in the branch. The other picture is of him with the first and second counselors in the branch presidency, Elders Eduardo and Villalobos.
