Where Did February Go?

Well, another month has flown by. As I was updating my files this week, I realized that Friday was the last day of the month. That just proves we are having a wonderful time.
It was good to have Elder W. back working in the office. I had missed him being there with me. The good thing about being a “Senior Missionary” is that we do not have to occupy the same space at all times.
Also this week I have been able to “reconnect” with an old high school friend through Classmates, a web site. He and Elder W. also played little league baseball together, many years ago. He remembers Elder well. He also told me he lived in Ecuador for three years. He works for Bechtel International. He visits here often and knows exactly where we are living. How small is this world?
We will be having some changes soon. Our “Mission Nurse”, Sister Wallace, will be going home to Canada in two weeks. A couple will come to replace her. The Sister will be the nurse and the Elder will be the Finance Elder for the Mission. We will also have a new Mission President in July.
We also got some other great news this week. Our dear friends from our last Mission, Brother and Sister Nancolis, have been called as a Mission President. They will receive their assignment at a later time. We are so very excited for them, even more excited for the Elders and Sisters who will serve under him. He has worked for the Church for many years and in many Spanish speaking countries. We of course would love for him to come here to Quito.
We love you and miss you all! The Gospel is the greatest thing in our lives, our Savior loves us all and wants the best for all his children. We are teaching this principle each day.
Until next time!
