Mariposario (Butterly Habitat)

Yesterday we went to see Butterflies at the recommendation of several brothers and taxi cab drivers.  Wow, was it worth it.  The pictures of the butterflies didn't turn out great because they moved around so much but there was much more to see.  They had a bird dome, turtle sanctuary, peacocks.  It was kind of like a resort, they had 12 different pools, a lake, cabanas that you could rent, etc. 











Daughter of the couple that took us to the park--she was very firm in telling us her name and we had to get it right--Daria Valeria Fernandez Rios










We also went to the meeting last night which is right next door.  120 publishers, 21 pioneers, 3 elders.  Very zealous.  Ricci had the privelege of giving the concluding prayer and it was beautiful.

In Bolivia, there are campaigns to preach in unassigned terriotry.  They begin in May and go through August.  This happens all over the country and local congregations organize to work areas that are close to them as well as sometimes traveling a day or two to other parts of the country.  They announced this last night.  

Today, on to COCHA-WHAT?  We are very excited.  We had two options: 10 hours by bus or 35 minutes by plane......no brainer.

  2. It sounds like the brothers, especially the Rios family, made you so welcome there it must have been yet another tearful parting in your string of broken-hearted congregations. We are so grateful to Brother Rios and to all who have taken such good care of you. Please relate our love and appreciation to them when you depart.

    Thanks! Buen viaje!
