An Activity with President and Sister Marler

 The Porvenir and Esperanza Zones joined the Marler's for a P-day activity.

 There were smiles and great conversations,

 Selfies,

 and juggling practice.

 Posing for pictures, 

 Futbol,

and a walk on the beach.

 Sandcastle building,

 ...and a soft ball game, look at Sister Sandy catch that ball!

It was a beautiful day, full of fellowship and fun.

Thanks for sharing the day with us. 

Mission Leadership Council…July 2014

The Mission Leadership Council meets every month

the council is made up of all the Sister Trainer Leaders and Zone Leaders

 Sister Calle, our mission nurse, taught us how to care for our backs and necks.  We need to keep health and fit to be great missionaries who walk miles and miles each day.

 President Marler and the Assistants provided training on various subjects

 Sister Marler taught about the Saviors love and how we can emulate him 

and be better friends to all we meet

 Sister Evans and Sister Allred played a beautiful medley on the piano and violin. This will be our last musical number by Sister Allred, as she will be retuning home in 2 weeks
