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,

We drove Elder Carter and his companion, Elder Baas from Merida (on the Yucatan Peninsula), to Santiago Tuxtlas which is their area. We went there for a special interview with Juana Chacha. Juana Chacha is her real name. We think it is kind of funny. Juana Chacha, get it? "Wanna cha-cha?" Anyway, this foto is the outside of her house--hammock, table and chairs, lots of shade, and smiling ladies and missionaries. She was baptized the next day in San Andres.

I love it! So much of what I see in your posts remind me of Peru and Chile where we have visited similiar steets and homes. I especially love your river baptisms. They are post-card perfect. Bautizonas and bauti-stritas - W.O.W. now that is amazing! Congratulations to you and your hard working missionaries - how wonderful to see faith and perservance rewarded!
