Maria Antonetta

"We call Maria Antonetta la lucha because her family gave her the nickname of Lusha, and I heard wrong and called her lucha, and now everyone in the family calls her lucha, and we always make jokes with her and say "Lucha, siempre Luchando" and stupid stuff like that.  But everyone laughs, so it's cool."

Did I mention that she's pretty short...

Armando Gonzalez

"Armando Gonzalez is one of the coolest people in the world and one of the first members that I met in Utatlan.  He sang opera all of his life and studied opera in Italy, I think.  He sang all around the world, in every country of Central America, South America, North America, and most of Europe.  In his prime he was named one of the top ten tenors of the world.  He found out about the church when he was living in California and was baptized with his wife, who passed away about six months ago.  None of his children are members."




Here's Elder Barrera helping Hno. Gonzalez with his voice exercises.
