Missionary work actually went pretty well in Riberalta.

We helped to get several members “reactivated,” meaning that they were attending church meetings.

As we had promised President Nichols, we weren’t knocking doors but were getting church members to introduce us to their families and friends.

One afternoon, we went with Bebby and her mother to visit her uncle, a small man with slicked hair and a pencil mustacho.

 He brought out some wooden chairs and set them in his front yard, where we began to explain to him how the gospel of Jesus Christ had been restored to the earth by the Prophet Joseph Smith.

As I was talking, I noticed that on the other side of the fence was a large concrete platform with a banana-leaf roof held up by several poles.

 A sign read “Matadero Municipal” (municipal slaughterhouse).

A man walked by, leading a large Brahma bull on a rope.

Two young boys, perhaps ten or twelve years old, quickly lashed the bull’s horns to one of the poles.

One of the boys took out a small knife, which looked dirty but very sharp, and plunged it into the bull’s neck, drawing it quickly through an artery, it seemed.

Cascades of blood began jetting from the wound, redder and brighter than I had ever imagined blood could be.

The bull began bellowing and struggling, but the boys worked quickly and methodically, cutting a line along the back and pulling the skin away as the bull’s legs buckled, and it fell to the pool of blood on the concrete floor.

Cannon was now teaching, but I sat mesmerized by what I was watching.

The boys had the bull completely skinned in a matter of minutes.

Soon they had removed the hooves and ankles, and then they hoisted the bull on a hook attached to a pulley.

They opened the abdomen and chest cavity and began removing organs and intestines, placing them in what looked like a large plastic box.

The last step was removing the head from the carcass.

 When it was done, the boys put away their knives and sat down again in the shade, laughing, and chatting.


Cannon finished the discussion, and Bebby’s uncle said he would like to visit our church. Bebby said she’d make sure he got there on Sunday.

“Did you see that?” I asked.

“See what?” asked Cannon.

“They slaughtered a bull right in front of us.”

“I didn’t see anything.”

That Sunday we had our first baptism: Hermana Chipunavi’s ten-year-old son.

 The branch members told us that missionaries had previously baptized at a place called La Lechera, where people did their laundry, so we went to check it out.

It turned out to be a small wooden platform extending out over a large swamp.

The locals had kept the area around the platform clear of vegetation, so there would be just enough room to baptize.

“Just watch out for the sicuri,” said the branch president.

I learned that “sicuri” was the local name for the anaconda, which lives in swamps and lakes and can grow up to 25 feet in length.

We decided that maybe one of the branch members should to the baptism.


I was getting healthier and putting on weight there.

For some reason, eating fish and fresh fruits every day was doing me a lot of good.

 Cannon and I started exercising each morning, running on a dirt path along the river in the mornings.
'
The sunrises were every bit as spectacular as the sunsets, the brightly cultured sky reflecting in the muddy river as the fishermen prepared their nets for the day’s work.

I really didn’t need the exercise, as I’d been walking constantly for almost two years, but it felt good to run just for fun and exercise.


We were getting along really well. Cannon was from a pretty prominent family in Salt Lake City, where his father was a surgeon and professor at the University of Utah medical school.


“Do you think we’ve been brainwashed?” he asked one afternoon as we sat on the rooftop patio reading our scriptures.

“Brainwashed? What are you talking about?” I asked.

“Well, it’s just that I took a psychology class at the U,
 and we learned about brainwashing techniques.

If you think about it, the MTC has all of them:

isolation, physical and emotional stress, peer pressure, guilt.

I’ve heard them say that in the army, they try to break you down and rebuild you as a tool so that you’ll do whatever they want you to do.”

“Why would they want to do that?” I asked.

“I don’t know, I was just thinking,” he said, and we went back to the scriptures.
A couple of weeks later we had two more baptisms.

 This time the branch members decided to make it a party.

We rented a truck to carry us–about 15 in total–to a “laguna” several kilometers outside of town.

 The round lake had at one point been a bend in the river, but the river had since changed its course, leaving a donut-shaped laguna with a small island in the middle.


Next to the laguna was a small cluster of houses that had once been occupied by American missionaries who would fly to remote parts of the jungle to Christianize the native tribes.

 The complex had been abandoned some time ago,
and Bolivians had moved in.

We went into one of the kitchens to help
prepare the picnic lunch.

The yellow formic counters and modern appliances were
 still there, but now there was no electricity and no running water.

Cannon did the baptisms, and while he was out there,
one of the branch members shouted,

 “Watch out for the stingrays and electric eels!

 A little boy died out there last week.”


We thought he was joking, so Cannon did the baptism, and then I did the confirmations on the sandy shore.

 Afterward, we walked to a small tienda to get some cold drinks, and we noticed on the wall several eels and stingrays mounted on wood plaques.

Plastic bottles of “ray oil” stood on a shelf for sale.

 Apparently, it hadn’t been a joke. It had been a good day, but I wasn’t sure I wanted to baptize there again.

One afternoon, Hermana Chipunavi looked at me very seriously and asked, “Spencer W. Kimball. Does he really exist?”

“Of course he exists,” I said. “He’s the prophet.”

“But how do you know he’s real?” she asked. “Have you ever seen him?”

“I’ve seen him on television,” I said.

“Then you don’t really know,” she said.


I’d never thought of it that way, but maybe she was right.

 We talked a lot about what we knew, but for her,
 reality was what she could see and taste and feel.
