          The temple was over-whelmed by patrons today.  Glade manned the front desk for hours directing large groups of youth for baptisms, giving out fichas for the afternoon sessions which filled early in the afternoon, and fielding zillions of questions.  At one point he broke his reading glasses in half, sent someone to find me, and sent me hurrying to the apartment to get him another pair.  Age really speaks up when you can’t read without those glasses!

          As for me, I was thrown right back into the middle of that river again in the roperia—giving out clothes for baptisms and trying to field questions I didn’t understand.  Pantomime, trial and error, and finding help have become second nature and sometimes it’s pretty funny!  Everything always works out somehow, so all is well!

          There were crowds of people on the grounds tonight waiting for the last of their groups to finish.  Finally, the buses pulled up for loading and everyone climbed on board and settled in for their ride home.  Some were from Tegucigalpa and others were from out of town.
