Beautiful Feet: March 19, 2015

Cesar and Eliza had spent the night with us Wen. nite so we wanted to fix breakfast for them. I went out at 7:00 and got the gas for cooking. Fortunately there was a little place on the next corner about 2 min. away that sold gas. Just when breakfast was all done and we were putting it on the table, Edgardo knocked on the door. We were not expecting him but his timing was perfect so he joined us for breakfast. After breakfast Cesar and Eliza headed back to Juayua to do a contract on the house so the owner could paint the kitchen and clean the house before they move in. They skype messaged later in the day that all went well and they were back home in Santa Ana. We rested a little and had lunch then headed out to our studies. The first one was with Kathrine which Charlotte does and I mostly wait for her. It was hot inside so I stepped outside for a few minutes near the end. Down the road two men arrived on motorcycles and talked to a lady then one of them held a dog that was lying nearby while the other gave it a shot. After giving her a paper he filled out they came on up my way. They stopped and we talked. They were from the Health Dept. and were vaccinating dogs and cats for rabies. They said there had been an outbreak some years ago. Charlotte came out and joined in the talk, I said good luck with the cats and she said that the dogs would be a challenge because there were so many. They laughed and said that it seemed each person owned at least 5. The really funny thing was that as we went back to the car we passed where they had given the one dog the shot and there were at least 3 other dogs they did not vaccinate. At least that one is safe. Then we went to our study with Stephanie. It was on baptism and went well but no decision. We asked her again to come to services this Sunday and made a date to study again next Tuesday. We left her in her house and as we walked down the road we met her again (or so it seemed) the lady was Stephanie’s identical twin. Bessie said she had told us about this but we did not understand. We laughed about it and took her picture. Then we went on to Reina’s house. We had asked Carlos to go by and talk with her and he had already been there yesterday afternoon so we just had a short devotional. She said she was having some abdominal pain so Charlotte shared the passage about Jesus preparing a place for us. Last night we went the Thursday home study that is here in Ataco. Carlos led it and did another great job. It was at a different house we had not been to before so that was interesting.
