PARAGUAY!!!!

For the two maybe three people that read this, never in a million years did I think that I would be called to serve in the Paraguay, Asuncion North Mission!! I am ecstatic!!! I'll be sitting in class, at home, in my car. . okay really anywhere and all of the sudden Paraguay will pop into my mind coupled with a smile!!

So just in case you know nothing about Paraguay here are some (what I think to be interesting) facts:


  • Paraguay is land wise the same size as California

  • Its population is about 6.5 million

  • It became the republic of Paraguay in 1992

  • it is surrounded my Argentina, Bolivia and Brazil

  • It is one of two landlocked coteries in South America

  • There are two main languages spoken there Spanish, Guarani (I've heard they speak a mix of both of these)

  • 89% of the population are Roman Catholics

  • There are 800 airports and 15 of those have paved run-ways

These are just a few of the many things I could share. Hope you enjoyed them!!!
