Mike and I were invited to the small ward of San Ramon to be their guest speaker(s). Note: I said maybe 5 words in español, hence the () around the s. They had an activity for married couples.
It was well attended. Over half of the men were either not members or not active, so it was a great event. We asked them to put questions in a box about whatever they wanted to know about us or from us. "Time Out" was a concept that seemed to be new to some of them when resolving conflicts. How to deal with anger was asked. It gave Mike the opportunity to talk about reading the scriptures every day to become more like Jesus and less carnal like Satan. Mike talked a bit about the eternal marriage concept and how that helps solidfy a marriage. The played a game where the couples would imitate each other. My limited vocabulary came out with Mike coming home from working and saying "Tengo hambre". Google translate that!

is from the top of a soda bottle. Everyone was
given one to take home.
I gave mine to a hermana's apartment to give it
some cheer.
The evening started around 8:30pm and was still going strong at 10:00 pm.
Uruguayans always eat late dinners starting around 9:00 pm.

Everyone went home happy and well fed both physically and spiritually.
