Saturday night I got a call from the branch president in Talavera and he told me his father had died and he was in Cusco to bury him. He was very shook up so we went to support him. President Huarancca is a very humble and sincere man. He doesn't know much about church organization but he is willing to learn. I explained to him about dedicating graves and he wanted to do it.They are in the poorest cemetery in town in huancaro. They kind of just dig a hole and then the family covers it. Anyway I kind of expected him to come back and dedicate the grave but right in the middle of all the catholic stuff he stepped forward took charge and dedicated the grave. Afterwards he sang Mas Cerca Dios a Ti. It was a very spiritual moment. It brought tears to my eyes. I felt then that Talavera is in good hands. By the way we will be changing Presidente Duque in the San Jeronimo branch in the next week of two. He is a good man but he has been in a long time and is tired.
