Visiting the Maka

We had the amazing opportunity to be invited to meet with some members of the Maka tribe.  This is a group women that we were with.  It was a cold night and the warmed their feet as the worked on the bracelets that are sold at the airport and other various areas.
It was a night to never be forgotten as we were able to testify to them that the Great spirit dressed in white, that they had  told stories about was not a spirit but the Savior that appeared to their people in flesh.  He lives!  He loves them and we are brothers and sisters in the eternal family of God.

It is hard to see much in this picture but by the time we left little kids wanted to jump into the picture.   We are pictured her with Elders Bickley and Crofts who have done all the work there.  a visiting missionary couple from Argentina and the future tribe leader that is married to the chief 's daughter. We are in the main area of the community with a nice community center off to the right were there are about 10 computers available to the people.  A very quiet, timid people, but wow can the women play volleyball and the men play soccer!
