Capilla Abierta for Colon and Ferrocarril
Two wards that meet in the same building did their capilla abierta together. The hours were changed to accommodate the ferria. A newly wed couple took a chalkboard to the feria inviting people to come and know more about the mormons. As a result, they did have at least one family that came and were very interested. The wards did great being friends to people as they came into their chapel.

| This is a very unique chapel. The front structure is from an old catholic church that was on this property. Our church was able to build a chapel only on the condition that this front entrance to the old catholic church not be part of the demolition. |
 |
| The children are interested in reading the posters. |
 |
| I generally stay in the chapel to make sure a reverent atmosphere is maintained. |
 |
| These two great newlyweds and returned missionaries took the initiative to wheel the chalkboard down the street to the open market (feria). |

 |
| This is a tree branch holding up the electrical lines down the street from the chapel. |
 |
| These trees are in full bloom now. They are indigenous to Uruguay. |
 |
| Sometimes we have to give rides to the missionaries after the capilla abiertas. That board on the ceiling is the image of Christ velcroed into place. |
