Luis Maldanado's big day.


We were blessed with the opportunity to attend the Endowment session of Luis Maldanado. Lui lives up in Kiamesha, a little town outside of Monticello where we served for the past year before getting transfered in June. Lui year date of being a member was in May. He was just made Young Mens Pres. in the branch. He asked Doug to be his escort today as he received his endowment in the Manhattan temple. I forgot to get a picture at the temple. He is a great example of embracing the gospel message and sharing it. We are hopeful his wife Evelyn and son Christian will be baptized soon, before we go home. Congratulations Luis! Love you Maldanados!!!

Sidenote: today Doug went to Dr. Chapman to get his prescription written, a monthly ritual and the doctor took a look at his knee that has really been bothering him lately, oops! yeah, it was swollen, the doc drained some fluid off it and gave him a cortizone shot. Man is he sore tonight. Especially after having to walk up 5 flights of stairs at one apartment for inspections and 4 flights of stairs in another apartment as well as trucking across central park to catch the subway we needed after the doctor appointment. The doctor recommended for him to get some exercise on that knee right after the cortizone shot, so off we went.
