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.

Con amor,

Elder Chamorro is from Argentina. His home is about 20 minutes from the Buenos Aires Temple. His companion is Elder Millan from Culiacan, Sinaloa, Mexico. Before his mission, Elder Chamorro worked in a restaurant famous for its empanadas. So, one preparation day, we invited him to the mission home to make them for us and to teach us how.


Sis Marquez, who helps in the mission home, and Mom are rolling out the risen dough and cutting it. The filling was hamburger, chopped hard boiled eggs, and spices, kernels of corn, mozarella cheese, and it was really good.


Elder Chamorro really knew what he was doing. He taught us how to tuck together the edges of the filled dough, brushed them with beaten eggs, and baked them. Some he fried. They were amazing to look at, as you can see. But seeing was not believing. Tasting was much better.
