ELDER WOOD AND ELDER FABILA

Elder Wood and Elder Fabila are full time missionaries in our Belgrano Ward here in Buenos Aires.  They are part of the Buenos Aires North Mission.   A few days before leaving for Uruguay, we invited them to share a Sunday dinner with us and we enjoyed our visit with them so very much.  Elder Wood is the tall missionary and he is from Boston, and Elder Fabila is from the northern part of Uruguay.  They are both the only members in their families and joined the church as young teenagers.  They are exceptional and we loved our hour and a half with them as they brought a great spirit into our home.  I made a lot of food and they pretty much ate all they could manage!  I sent home cornbread with them and they were thrilled.  We took these photos, and the next day , I emailed Elder Wood's mother and sent her the photos, and I emailed them to Elder Fabila so he could forward them on to his family.  Elder Wood's mother emailed me back and thanked me for sending a photo ..... she was very gracious.  Elder Wood is quite a hiker, and hopes to visit us in the northwest to hike after his mission.  He will be attending BYU in the fall.  We have really enjoyed the young missionaries in our ward and love to become acquainted with them and share meals together.
