WEEK 94: ALMOST THERE, CHANGES IN THE BRANCH

This week has been really interesting. 

We had a lot of change take place in the Branch. We had a Branch Presidency change, and the Elders Quorum changed a lot. A Recent Convert of a year, Willan Cardozo is the new branch President of the Villa Montes Branch.  Jaime Alejandro, the dude that just came back from his Mission in Brazil is the new Elders Quorum President! A lot of cool changes!   And we have been working our butts off. We have a family that is going to get married and baptized....  on the 30th of July.  So I won't be here to see the baptism. But I know that Marcos and Mariela will be happier and have a lot better life in the Gospel.
Not very much happened this week.   Just that we got lost in the middle of nowhere.  We just decided to keep and walking and we found ourselves on the highway to Camiri.  But we got to take a cool picture before we walked back home!
Scripture of the Week: 
3 Nephi 11: 9-17

Behold, I am Jesus Christ, whom the prophets testified shall come into the world.  

And behold, I am the light and the life of the world; and I have drunk out of that bitter cup which the Father hath given me, and have glorified the Father in taking upon me the sins of the world, in the which I have suffered the will of the Father in all things from the beginning.

And it came to pass that when Jesus had spoken these words the whole multitude fell to the earth; for they remembered that it had been prophesied among them that Christ should show himself unto them after his ascension into heaven.  

And it came to pass that the Lord spake unto them saying:  

Arise and come forth unto me, that ye may thrust your hands into my side, and also that ye may feel the prints of the nails in my hands and in my feet, that ye may know that I am the God of Israel, and the God of the whole earth, and have been slain for the sins of the world.  

And it came to pass that the multitude went forth, and thrust their hands into his side, and did feel the prints of the nails in his hands and in his feet; and this they did do, going forth one by one until they had all gone forth, and did see with their eyes and did feel with their hands, and did know of a surety and did bear record, that it was he, of whom it was written by the prophets, that sould come.

And when they had all gone forth and had witnessed for themselves, they did cry out with one accord, saying:  

Hosanna!  Blessed be the name of the Most High God!  And they did fall down at the feet of Jesus, and did worship him.
