What a treat to have Elder and Sister Costa of the 1st Quorum of the Seventy visit our mission. We started in Bariloche and ended in Neuquen. We had great councils in the car as we drove many hours together. We had 2 zone conferences and a stake conference, lots of interviews with missionaries, toured pensions and were able to have a special meeting with only the Sisters in our mission with Sister Costa. We were inspired and loved by these great leaders. Thursday was a Thanksgiving and we were so busy with the Costas we forgot until our North American missionaries asked if they could call home. hahaha. But if you know me very well that is a huge tender mercy! It is so warm here (It is summer in this part of the world) and with our visitors I didn't feel like I was missing out! What a great week we had! They gave us very helpful council and we were inspired and felt their love and support!
In Stake Conference Elder Lucero - another visiting authority - shared this Scripture
D&C 93:39
And that wicked one cometh and taketh away light and truth, through disobedience, from the children of men, and because of the tradition of their fathers.
It made me ask myself if I there are any traditions I have that keep me from living the gospel to it's fullest. Or are there any traditions I have passed down to my children that keep them from living the gospel to its fullest. There are probably a few........
What a great week! And now on to MORE missionaries! We have 15 coming on Saturday!
