Aug. 15, 2017- Posterity!!



Family Tree of Elder Birrell! Elder Holman, Elder Langston, Elder Birrell, Elder Dussan, Elder Carlos
This week we had new missionaries arrive and the two Elders I trained as new missionaries will now be training two of these new missionaries. Elder Langston will be training Elder Holman and Elder Dussan will be training Elder Carlos this change. President asked us to say a few things in the Leadership training meeting and I got emotional while speaking in front of a large audience for the first time in a while. It was when I began to talk about my experience training these two Elders. I´m a proud dad!!

I don't have much time to write this week. We are extremely busy preparing for the two day visit and conference of a general authority, Elder Teixeira, he's the president of the South America South area.  We're tired and stressed but happy. We changed sectors this week, so we'll be working in an area very close to the office. This will help us since we are very limited in our time and it took a while traveling to our old area. We were able to visit the members of the Vespucio ward and say goodbye. We weren't able to work in that area very often, but we really loved those we taught and the members of the ward

Sorry this is short, but I sent you lots of pictures!!

Love,

Elder Birrell
