OK Mom, we are coming home!

Last night and today the missionaries had a wonderful time.
Time to study, relax, have a Family Home Evening with the Marler's,
talk, write in their Recuerdo Books, and just spend time together.

 Sister Aramayo with her mom and sister, we love having families come 
and enjoy some time in the mission field with their missionaries. 
 Elder Vera, Elder Ojeda and Elder Claros.
Elder Grewell, Elder Cheal, Elder Walther and Elder Cowley.
