During this weeks zone conference, which is actually is made up of 3 zones, our zone the La Grange zone, prepared a special musical number to sing . These Elders sounded great! They sang How Great Shall Be Your Joy. We even had an award for the best smiler. This was a special zone conference. It was our President and his wife, Reid and Diane Robisons last conference here before they go home to Provo, Utah in about 14 days. They have been wonderful models for each of us. We wish them the best of luck in their new chapter as they leave this West Indies Mission and pick up where they left off at Brigham Young University.


This is our new zone. We are called the La Grange zone. But everyone has ordered alligator scripture covers, or hymn books, or tote bags. We are thinking of changing our name to the La Gator zone. We look pretty snazy with our gator scriptures. The Elders even convinced me to purchase an alligator purse. Not a fan of so much gator, I did get a purse (which I needed) but the purse I got does have a alligator on it. Oh, how I love to be part of the zone.

Shadetts anyone??



Here we have Scot with a Shadett. What the heck is this? Well, it is better than a grapefruit. In St. Lucia, they weren't quiet this large. This one is huge. They are hard to come by. They are not as juicy and you peel them and eat them as an orange. This is our favorite fruit here. It you love pink grapefruits, you'll love Shadetts


One of the things we just do here in Guyana is eat out a lot. We seem to celebrate birthdays, going aways, its monday, just about any reason to get together and it seems to be more often than not. But we love getting together and we love working with these other couples.
