One of the 10 families sealed over two days. (Photo by Temple President Norman.) Temple joyfully speaks Kekchi Nov. 30 and Dec. 1 were busy days at the Guatemala City Temple with ten  couples  sealed together for eternity, in the  Mayan language of Kekchi (also spelled “Q’eqchi”).  Seven couples came from the Senahu Stake, traveling many hours.  With these couples were 22 children . Many other saints came with them to participate in the sacred experience. The sealers spoke in Spanish and then Stake President Cuz, read the ordinance in Kekchi.  These were not the first Senahu families sealed together for eternity. There have been others before them. And there will be many more to come.  Elder Dale G. Renlund of the Quorum of the Twelve organized the Kekchi language stake in June, the first of its kind. A second such stake is in the making in Chulac.  The Senahu Stake Presidency... L to R: 1st Counselor Bol, Temple President Norman, President Cuz, a...

Nov. 6-12, 2017 - Outdoor Map, Crazy Address, Molar Pulled, Conversion Story, Guatemalan Conference

Larry’s strange Monday day off While Babette and the other temple missionaries visited the tourist city Antigua, for the second time, on our Monday day off, I, Larry, had to see a dentist about pain in a molar.  The dental missionaries’ clinic is located near a huge city park containing a gigantic outdoor “Relief Map of Guatemala.” I took a taxi to it at 10:30 am (the first taxi ride I’ve taken alone here). My dental appointment was at 1 pm. I had lots of time to see this marvel.    Lots of walking around At 11 am, after viewing the Relief Map, I started walking to the clinic which had an address of 6-96 7A Avenida. I had been told that the clinic was 4 or 5 blocks away from the map, so I was confident I was going the right way. When I got to that location (about 9 blocks away) there was no clinic. The clinic was supposed to be easy to find: white stucco  with a painting of Snow White and the 7 dwarfs. I had seen it once when we picked up a missionary from ther...

Like climbing a hill, the downside of our temple mission in Guatemala will go faster  and easier  than in the first 9 months.  We know the  Spanish ordinance words of the  temple and can  say them as  fast as we want  (fast, however, is  not done).  Our personal conversations in  Spanish, in contrast,  are still slow and  simple,  but we usually  can get  our messages  across.  We have seen  various parts of  Guatemala and  have others we  will experience.  We’ve learned to cook meals  with the foods we  have here. Many items are not  available here.  We are comfortable with the people. We love the climate. We could live down here for the rest of our lives, were it not for family.  Family home evening Monday, 21 May 2018 We missionaries visited the Records Operations Center (ROC) where they oversee the contracts for digitizing government and religi...
