This is Quinn's Blog run by his family. As a missionary he won't be able to check the blog, but please post comments and we will forward them on to him in our weekly letter. Also, feel free to write him via "snail mail" at the address posted below.

Another great way of contacting Quinn is through Dearelder.com Where it says Select a Mission click the drop box and highlight the Colombia Barranquilla mission and then click Write a Letter. Fill in the informaion about your name and address and where it says Select Title chose Elder and then write in Quinn Larson. These letters get sent like emails to Quinn so they are much faster than writing a letter. He still however, needs to respond to you via "snail mail" so make sure you leave an address in your letter so he can write you back!

Quinn has waited for this time to serve for a very long time, and he is excited to be in Colombia serving the Lord. He sends his love and thanks to all his friends and family.

CARTA!!! (July 26,2010)

hey family, taking a quick moment to write to you all to say im grrrreat! we had a good attendance in church yesterday and they have me playing the keyboard in primary to sundays are the best. i think it is something strange for the members to see a big white gringo sitting behind a really small table with a big keyboard playing primary songs and singing in his opera bass voice becuase almost everyone that passes by looks in to see what all the noise is about. i fully enjoy it. Our investigators are still progressing but with lots of dificulty, its quite hard for people to actually put faith into action when they dont have pratice doing it and when sacrifing could mean there is no food on the table for the family. but with lots of little steps they are working towards baptism. we really need the members help to show them its possible to live how the Lord wants us to here in B/quilla so we are going to be doing the extra work of getting the fun members here out of their house and on the street. dad in response to your question if im better looking now than before i think if alma 5 is true and i dont look any different we would have problems wouldnt we? in response to moms question about our investigator who dreams he said he saw ME so he recognized me when i stopped by. also he has told us more of his dreams which has been a hoot but just so you all know i am the same size a Jesus. he said the last time he had a dream about jesus he was my same size and build so thats interesting. the reason im writing so little is that they are taking 1/2 of the pday to have a DL meeting with the new MP. its a 3 day deal bc they are making some adjustments to the way the missionaries are going to teach so they are getting us up to speed. let me tell you im just so happy that they are going to take me out of my area for 3 days so that i can learn how all the OTHER missionaries are going to teach but thats the way things go.
thanks for all your love and letters. you are the all the BEST family ever.
