Yesterday morning we headed out to Juayua at 9. Cesar had asked us if we could help them
paint their living room. It had a
strange swirl pattern that Charlotte had said from the beginning that she did
not like but I thought didn’t look too bad. I guess they agreed with her because they had
decided to paint it. This is by far the
biggest room in their house and it is a pretty big room so it will take a while
to paint. There is also so much dust
here that Charlotte spent a lot of time cleaning and it still seemed that there
was dust everywhere. Elisa fixed us a
delicious lunch, they had wanted to have us over for a meal when they lived in
Santa Ana but their water got turned off for repairs that very day so she was
not able to cook. We painted some more
after lunch but stopped about 2:30 so we could go to visit Sister Anna. She was feeling better than last week and we
had a good visit plus one of her daughters sat in so that was really good. Last night at 6 her parents (who are fairly
old) and her sister came to the class at Sister Regina’s house. We also got to go again to visit Bro. Raul
and his wife and 2 kids and study with them some then they all came to the 6:00
class. I led the study at Sister Regina’s
and Cesar went over to study with Mr. Rivers.
We talked about the book of Judges and how the people forgot God in one
generation after all He had done in bringing them out of Egypt and into the Promised
Land. Then we talked about the
importance of teaching our children since there were 4 young children there
from two families. Then we talked about
the cycle of turning from God and falling into the hands of the enemy then crying
out to God when things got bad but then forgetting God again after He had
rescued them and how that relates to our lives.
That God gave them a land of milk and honey and they ended up living in
caves to escape the enemy because of their disobedience and how God wants the
best life for us here and how bad things go when we listen to Satan and not to
God. Then right after we got home Brian
came over and got an unexpected supper with us.
We had some cheese dip Charlotte had made and he said it was some of the
most delicious stuff he had ever tasted.
After dinner I got out the Bible and showed him several verses about the
idea of restoring New Testament Christianity.
