Training a branch president (left), his clerk (center), and the audit committee chairman (right).
Elders in the city of Espargos. There are two main cities on the island, and it is about a half hour drive from one to the other. There are two branches in Espargos, one in the other city, Santa Maria, and one on another island: the island of Boa Vista, which we will be visiting next month to conduct an audit.
This is a funeral at the Catholic church in Espargos.
The two ladies next to the building are beating corn with two long wooden sticks to prepare "cachupa", the typical dish of Cape Verde.
Santa Maria's thriving economy is driven by tourism. In this photo you can see why. Lovely beaches, transparent water, fun water activities.
Beautiful beach.
At church this little girl was playing the player piano. She loved it!
Doesn't she just look like a model? So beautiful!
This family is part member, part investigator. In Relief Society the sisters from this family were almost half of the group. The young women joined the sisters for RS.
This was on P-Day. Elder Mendenhall and Elder Toledo stopped by the internet cafe briefly to check their mail, but since they were in a hurry to meet with us, they took pictures of their emails. While they waited for us, they were frantically trying to finish reading through their emails on their cameras.
Elder Toledo and Elder Mendenhall. Elder Mendenhall was one of the Assistants to the President until last transfer. He will be returning home next Monday. We enjoyed spending a little extra time with them.
