Meet Some of Our Friends

Ammon with his mom Kumari. Her husbands name is Kumar. Many of the children are named after prophets and apostles and some book of Mormon people. Kumari does a lot of translating for the church. They are trying to translate magazines and books into Telugu. She and some of the other members have been to Salt Lake City a few times in regards to the translation. She also translates for our Marriage and family relations class. She and Kumar are fun and keep us laughing and smiling. She has a great sense of humor but when they want to talk fast here they switch over to Telugu and I'm lost! I keep telling them I know it was funny....I just don't know what you said!!
Sudoker in the back right. He's one of our 4th branch kids. Daniel holding on to Elder Kasper. A new member of about 3 months and a wonderful young man. We've written about Daniel and his sisters Kiran and Joslin. We love all these kids.

Solomon and Prasana. Prasana is due to have her first baby in November. They are a great couple. They've had us to dinner and if we need anything Solomon is one of the people we call. These people take such good care of us.


Shaker Bodhu and his wife Vani. They sing in our choir and are such a cute couple. They are in first branch so we have to search for ways to spend time with some of our good friends in first branch. Bodhu is the one who sings "Come Follow Me" in between serves on the volleyball court. When we try to close choir....he's always saying, "One more song sister!" Vani is the New Relief Society President in 1st Branch. She's very dedicated. A wonderful young couple that we are privileged to know.



Mahesh is Shaker Bodhu's brother. He was the one who called me first for Mothers Day and wished me a happy mothers day. That's the only reason he called. I told him he was first. None of my kids had emailed or called at that point.....Truth be known it wasn't even mothers day yet in the USA when Mahesh called. He feels like one of my kids. We have a zillion kids here!!

Very cool! It is nice to have faces with the names of the people you talk about. I am excited to meet these people too. I hope some of them come to the USA, especially if we dont make it to India. Erik says we will see what happens. You know him. . .he will probably make it all happen. Food storage, Christmas, and India!
