Big News
My chromebook keyboard is not working. That is why there is a delay in the blog this week. But the big news is that we had "rain" twice this week. Now our rain is not really rain. It is more like a slow drip from the heavens. We actually saw a rainbow, which was very exciting--even if it was only a small one. Other exciting news was an earthquake on the 15th at 4:45 am. It came in at 5.4 on the Richter scale. It woke both of us up. I was up and trying to find my shoes when it stopped.
We talked with a few elders to see if they had felt the earthquake and most had slept right through it.

Senior Missionary Family Home Evening
It was our week to host family home evening at our apartment. It's always a fun evening to meet with the other senior missionaries. We fit 23 people into our apartment! We had to borrow chairs from our upstairs neighbors--Elder and Sister Pratt. It was pretty cosy.

| Practicing the song for the devotional |
Thor led a great discussion on the Book of Mormon. We also practiced a musical number that most of them are singing in a devotional with Elder Holland. (We are not part of the area office, so we won't be there. Don't feel bad for us because we get to listen to him with our missionaries on January 21.)

Temple P-Day
This week was great because we were able to go to the Lima Temple with our zone. Our "official" zone is Mayorazgo. It is where most of the office elders are assigned...And us, because we are considered part of the office staff. It is always special to go to the Temple. It was an added bonus to see Elders and Sisters that we know all excited to be there! It was a great day.
