Sunday was extraordinarily busy this week. We got off for Shucutitian about 8:45 and
picked up some people in Ataco we saw walking to catch the bus. When we arrived, we discovered that Bessi’s
little girl had a virus and so she did not make it to service. With that, Stephanie, her cousin did not
come. We are prayerful for Valentina’s
recovery and Stephanie’s visit to the church.
Reina did come and I talked with her for a while during our break. I went to the children’s class and enjoyed
the fellowship of working with Rachel and about 3 more helpers. They did a dramatization of Moses and a
puppet show. Rachel did a visual on the
10 plagues and then a craft. Ladies
brought in food at the end and fed the whole church. It was a great surprise. Bessi usually teaches the teen girls, but she
was absent. Linda took her place and did
a good lesson. She took the 5
characteristics of good qualitites for the young in Timothy and looked for
those characteristics in the lives of the Rebecca, the wife-to-be for
Isaac. The girls all seemed to enjoy it
and they had to work on the applications.
We finished up about 1, in time to run home for 15 minutes and then head
out to Turin. We stopped by Maria’s home
to pick her up for service, but she was not there. We have met her about 4 or 5 times now in
Turin, so I was disappointed that she was not there to go to service. Even Noe and his wife, Betty, had visited her
and talked about visiting the church.
Noe had two sermons, one the dedication of a child and then a powerful
message on the tongue. We invited Noe
and Betty to our home next week and then headed off for Juayua. By the time the 7 o’clock service was going,
we were tired, but it was uplifting.
Carlos gave a great message and there was a houseful of visitors form
Ataco and Ahuachapan. We brought a car
load back with us and got home about 9:30.
We were encouraged to hear from the Lynda Grizzle again, knowing that
all was safe with her husband Don, after having an emergency. It is a blessing to be able to keep in
contact with our friends and family and depend on God to meet needs throughout
the world.
