Zone Conference

In March we had 3 Zone Conferences with Elder Zeballos of the 1st Quorum of the Seventy. This is Elder L and I at the Concepcion Zone Conference.

The lunch in Penco was 3 meat filled empanadas, fresh fruit salad and carrot cake. In Concepcion we had chicken, pasta salad, rolls and brownies and in Chillan we had rice with a meat topping. The good thing about Chillan was that it was catered. It was a lot of work and a lot of fun!

Centro Ward Going Away Party for the Kimballs

The Centro Ward had a wonderful going away party for the Kimballs. Of course the Cueca dance was performed by some of the youth in the ward.

The Bishop joins in on the fun. He loves to dance.

The guests of honor are enjoying themselves. The ward loves them and they love the ward.

Brother Castellon, the ward mission leader, entertains the crowd with the "campecino song".

The Relief Society sisters performed a traditional dance about the formation of Easter Island. They looked so cute with their costumes and the way they decorated the stage.

The ward loved all of the performances.

The Relief Society president makes a special presentation to Sister Kimball. The president looks so cute in her traditional cueca dress.

The 1st counselor in the Bishopric also makes a special presentation.

The Kimballs say goodbye to the ward. We were all sad to see them go. They were great people who served well.

Cueca & Mamut

We love going to downtown Concepcion. Sometime we get to see some fun sights. These two kids are doing the national folk dance called the "Cueca".

Elder L calls this the yuppie restaurant, but I really like eating here. The food is good but the salads are overpriced.

Eating at Mamut with the Balden's and the Pendley's.

Elder L joins in on the conversation. What a fun time!
