Remote Mission Week 5 - Happy Easter

April 4, 2021

¡Felices Pascuas! (Happy Easter!)


And happy general conference weekend! We loved listening to inspired messages from our prophet and other leaders AND celebrating Easter AND celebrating our youngest daughter’s birthday. However, we must have passed some sort of life marker … this is the first year, since having children, that we haven’t bought any Easter candy. The only children around are too little to really eat candy.


This week was filled with more apartment check video-calls, Zoom trainings with the office elders, learning more about the church’s internet mission office system (IMOS), and language study. But our big event was getting our second Covid shot. Hopefully this will help open the door for us to actually go to Peru. So far the only missionaries entering Lima are ones who already had their VISAs before the Covid shutdowns. Fingers crossed that things open up!


Spring is here bringing new life and hope!

“… he is risen, as he said.”

~Matt. 28:6


¡Que tengan una buena semana! (Have a great week!)


Love,

Lane & LeAnn

 


Received our second dose of the Covid-19 vaccination.
No noticeable side effects.  Yay!
Now just waiting for Peru to open up and give us a travel visa!


Easter Sunday "empty tomb" rolls.


"Empty tomb" roll.
A large marshmallow in the center melts during baking to create the empty tomb.


Breaking in the missionary shoes, but too lazy to change the white socks.
We just hope we actually get to Peru to use the shoes!


Watching Saturday General Conference.


Jaron's new hair, finished by Alair!
Elizabeth made him a deal that if he would do an extreme haircut or extreme color, she'd start running with him for two months.  And if he did both, he could train her for a 5K or 10K run, even though she hates running.  He did both!  You think they are both having second thoughts??!!
😂


In the hair-do process.



Taylia and Israel (Izzy) with us on Easter Sunday!  
Taylia's birthday was Easter Sunday, and Izzy's is this week too!
