LEFKARA

We had zone conference this week.  Always a treat for everyone.

Celebrating March birthdays at zone conference.

These are the missionaries heading home this week.
Sis & Elder Hansen from Idaho, Elder Martinez from Spain and Sis Cheve from France.  We will miss them all so very much.

Cyprus trail mix:  nuts and olives - not a fan!



Sis Mueller, Sis East and our investigator Cheri from China.  They have a baptism date for March 21st.  Say a prayer for her please.

Elder & Sis Charles  - our Area 70 authority.  He was the mission president here 5 years ago.
His family is from Cyprus.  His father is Jehovah Witness, mother was Greek Orthodox and his wife Muslim.  Quite the combination but they are an amazing couple.

 This past week we went to the charming village of Lefkara.  It is up in the mountains and famous for its lace and filigree silver jewelry.  The day was a little cool so there was hardly anyone there.  We walked about and visited some of the shops.  The older ladies sit out in front and work on the lace.  It is amazing.  The work is so perfect that there is no wrong or right side.  I'll have to find a picture somewhere to show you.  The following pictures are all from Lefkara






we are going to come back in the summer when the weather is warmer and there are more people out and about.

Today is Sunday and we went to Pafos for Branch Conference.  Left at 7:00 and got home at 5:00 long but a good day.  Helped out the elders while we were there.  They are in the city by themselves these days with the sisters and the senior couple having been pulled out.

Have a good week!
