Mission Revival

I have to preface these pictures with a little story. About three and half weeks ago we got a letter in the mail from someone we didn't know from the area my husband served his mission. Basically, it was from a man who was in a ward with a family that Elder Hunsaker knew and taught from his mission. The father of that family was now ready to be baptized, but wanted Hunsaker to baptize him, and would Hunsaker be able to come and baptize him. Short long story even shorter--we went up last weekend where Elder Hunsaker was able to baptize Jose Luis! Talk about not knowing what fruits the seeds you sow will bear!!
Jose Luis and wife Mari with Hunsaker(that is what everyone there called him!)

Jose and Mari

Ready to go.



I got a kick out of this for some reason. He was like a little kid, right down to his toes poking out of his pants!

Ten years in the making, now it's time!

I loved this shot (thanks for pointing it out Vidi!).

The fam--Yotzin, Vidi, Aurea, Jose, Mari, Hunsaker, Mel

The whole fam--I was so impressed with this family! They are so tight knit, and were so willing to welcome us in (even ten years later!).
