Evidently, the apartment motto was "live and let live" until these rats got into the bread of an elder who particularly enjoys eating.

His first area is San Pedro Island (shown in the upper right section of the following map.)

Kevin may have inherited some of his parents' frugality as he chose to have another missionary (Elder Choc) cut his hair instead of paying to have it done.
You might say that a picture of a haircut is boring, and I wouldn't argue. Please note, however, the message on the t-shirt Kevin is wearing (You betta Belize it). Mary and I bought the shirt for April when we were in Belize in January 2009. After Kevin received his mission call, he inherited it.

Evidently, when you change countries, you become junior companion again. His new companion is Elder Contreraz. This companion doesn't appear to be dimensionally different than those of the past.

I know that this is the Lord's work and that He lives and loves us. I know that the Book of Mormon is the word of God and that this church is led through a modern day prophet.
We met one of Kevin's friends yesterday...we had Elder Pottle and his companion to dinner. They are serving in our ward here in Carlsbad, CA. He was very excited to meet someone that's heard of Champaign, IL :)
ReplyDeleteI'm excited that mom sent out this link again to this blog. Thanks for keeping these posted, dad. I think you're doing a swell job. Kevin's a good example.
