District Meeting in Casa Grande and Porvenir

It was divide and conquer this week as President Marler went to the Casa Grande Zone 
and Sister Marler visited the Porvenir Zone.  
It is always great to meet with the missionaries as they provide training and encouragement to one another. 
District Leaders, Elder Pulsipher, Elder Oviatt and Elder Boren provided wonderful
training and direction for their district.
Zona Casa Grande is always amazing!
The Porvenir Zone was full of smiles.
Elder Capcha and Elder Gubler, District Leaders, gave great lesson.
 Sister Utley is the English Tutor for the Zone, she had everyone singing
hymns in English...great job!

A little time in San Pedro de Lloc

We were greeted by a group of children who wanted a ride in the car.
With permission of parents, they hopped in the car for a 30 foot drive into the church parking lot.
 This is the front of the Chapel in San Pedro de Lloc, it was a colonial home, 
then a college and now,our Capilla.  It is lovely.
 We were here for a baptism of Lorena, a sweet young girl, whose mom was recently reactivated.
 Sister Butikofer and Sister Peel, were so excited about the baptism.
 The Branch had a lovely reception for Lorena after the baptism. 
 While the sisters attended the World Wide Women's Conference,

President headed off to visit some members and teach some lessons with Elder Herrera and Elder Dykstra.
 We finished the weekend with a lunar eclipse over Peru.  Nice touch!
