First Days in Mexico

"Tuesday (May 4)we received 1/2 of the package. Three of our six Elders were able to travel to Leon in time for Zone Conferences. The other 1/2....well, we are still waiting anxiously with no news. This is a first for us. Difficulties with Visas is normal...usually they all wait and come together...so we'll see what happens. We are delighted to have Elders Price, Pinther and Tew in our fields laboring with the missionaries of the Leon Mission. We picked them up Tuesday afternoon on our way home from the Conferences in Irapuato, we fed them....took pictures, they received instruction and then off with the Assistants to attend baptisms planned for that evening. The next morning we were together again for breakfast, assignments and then off to the zone conferences here in Leon. They are ready....prepared and willing and we are grateful to have them as part of our force to Preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the good people of this part of the world." (Sister Cox- Mission President's wife).



Raymond has been assigned to serve in Silao (15 miles southwest of Leon) with Elder Gray as a companion. Elder Gray is from Alaska and is a Zone Leader. We are excited he is there and ready to serve!
