At least I think it's amazing.
This is Elder Scott Raines standing outside of a chapel in Bucaramanga, Colombia in the year 2012.
This is Elder Kenneth Raines (on the right) standing outside of the VERY SAME chapel in Bucaramanga, Colombia in the year 1983. (They are standing in the same courtyard in front of the same chapel spire even though it was a different color 30 years ago.)
Now, the story gets even more amazing.
See the girl in the above photo who is on the left in the blue dress who had just been baptized by Elder Kenneth Raines?
Well, here is that same girl some 30 years later with Elder Scott Raines, standing outside by the kitchen in the same chapel helping her make soup.
Amazing, don't you think?
Simply, simply, AMAZING.
***p.s.***
And one more thing. . .
Thirty years ago, Kenneth was a Zone Leader in the Terrazzas zone in Bucaramanga and just a few weeks ago, Scott was assigned to be a Zone Leader in the Terrazzas zone in Bucaramanga.
THE EXACT SAME ZONE.
Amazing!
