A National treasure

With the visit of Doctor Henderson and his wife
(area medical advisor)
and
President and Sister Wakefield
(Bogota Temple President)
we decided to treasure up a little bit of the beauty of this great country, COLOMBIA.
We traveled to the National Park of Coffee on our way to a district conference in Armenia.

                                  Pdte y Hermana Wakefield              The missionaries find Pdte Prince wherever we are!
                                                arrving by cable car                                         Even in the Bamboo forest!!

President Juan Valdez and his Senora
In front of the new mission home...! (j/k)


And we DID make it to the district conference in Armenia.
Here we all are with President Londono and his wife.


The treasure of this country is not found in their countryside
"..their land also is full of silver and god, neither is there any end of their treasures;..."
2 Nephi 12:7
BUT
the treasure of this country is found in the people
especially in the faithful saints
"...they lay up for themselves treasures in heaven, yea,
 which is eternal, and which fadeth not away..."  Helaman 5:8
with the investigators of Elders Cachi and Asmat...what a choice little family!

And we TREASURE the opportunity to be here working
with them in this corner of the Lord's vineyard.
