Week 74: Holy Temple Batman!

Well folks, this week has been different.  Semana Santa (holy week...I'm not sure what it's called in English) is super different down here.

Ummmm, I hate to do this to you all, but I kinda ran out of writing time.  But I promise that I'll tell you all about the temple trip that we had with the investigators last week, and how our interviews with president Vasquez go, and about our missionary temple trip!

Love,

Elder Colton West

El Salvador, San Salvador East Mission

Editor's note: Elder West had a lot of personal emails to attend to again this week. I was able to email back and forth with him a few times this morning. They had a great temple event for investigators last week. This week the missionaries get to go do a session at the temple which he is very happy about. He also has interviews with Presidente Vasquez tomorrow. His tie challenge continues and he got a new beautiful tie for Easter. As he mentioned, he promises to tell us all about his temple experience in his letter next week. Thank you to all who sent birthday greetings last week.
