Happy Birthday Quinn!!

Quinn has been teaching Marella and Magella Street, the twin sisters that should have been baptized a few weeks ago. They’re both really cool and Magella wants to be a missionary. She’s been bringing people to church and talking to her family about the gospel and everything. She had a big discussion about the Book of Mormon with her brother who burned a copy that we gave him because of the pictures that are in the front. He said that he knew it wasn’t true because the bible doesn’t have pictures in it. They are also teaching her friend Akim and his family now. Akim should have been baptized this week, but his father doesn’t want him to yet. They got his 3 sisters to come to church this week and they all really enjoyed it. They should be baptizing them soon as well.

They still working to find more people to teach. Particularly men that can hold the priesthood. Men are just stubborn no matter where you go in the world, so that can be difficult.

They work with members as much as we can here, but they’re very spread out (the branch covers the entire country! They are the only missionaries in the mission with a whole country to themselves) and not always available. The med students are really good about it when they have time. They’re all RM’s and want to help out.

Quinn is allowed to drink Dr. Pepper so he included a picture of that. In the picture he is wearing a Real Madrid jersey he bought down there. As much as Quinn hates country, he hates Soca music even more, and he is completely inundated with it from the passing busses. The country is preparing for Carnival this month so the music is on all the time.



The picture of Quinn with a Chinese man is our old elder’s quorum president, Qin. He’s moving back to China this week, so they had a goodbye party for him on Saturday. He’s way cool. He’s been a member for a little less than a year now. He lived here for 3 years working as a translator at a Chinese restaurant. Apparently there is a branch of the church in the town where he lives. Mainland China, can you believe it! The second coming will be here just now. That would be way cool to go to china and visit him. Quinn is going to have to learn Chinese.



Quinn celebrated his birthday last week. He is now the big 21!! Patti sent him some of her homemade cookies, and it was much appreciated. He has changed so much in look and spirit since he left in March. We are so proud of you Quinn. Keep up the good work!!
