~August 29, 2011- First An Earthquake...And Then A Hurricane!~

Here is the letter that President Albright send the parents...


Dear Parents,


We are grateful to report that all of your missionaries are safe and back to work. The storm caused the second-largest power outage in Virginia history as 2.5 million people were without electricity at one point earlier today. along with several days before Hurricane Irene approached, each missionary was able to make certain their 72 hour emergency kits were up to date with nonperishable food, fresh batteries, flash lights and water bottles etc..Cell phones were charged, each car was filled with gas, and safe houses were designated by each bishop where the missionaries could go if necessary to stay with ward members. The members here love their missionaries! We hope this week to avoid any major hurricanes or earthquakes so we can have an historic baptismal month! Thank you for your continued faith and prayers.


Warm Regard,


President Mark Albright

Elder Garcia says that Earthquakes and Hurricanes can't stop them from working! He mentioned that the earthquake humbled a lot of people and they also found some investigators. The Hurricane mainly just brought  a lot of rain and during the night it blew down lots of trees. He says that he loves tracting in the rain! Him and Elder Reeves wouldn't get too far without getting completely drenched!
Today for P day they went to D.C. with an investigator. He says that he took pictures and will send them next week when he has more time.
