Time out.  I had some cleaning to do to get ready for the lunch guests and Charlotte had some cooking that she was able to do before services but she had 3 kinds of pizza planned and that would have to be cooked after services.  We had to leave early to pick up Carlos in Apaneca.  On the way we passed Samuel and his brother Arron waiting beside the road.  Carlos was waiting when we got to his road and on the way back we also picked us Arron and Samuel.  It was good that they got to know Carlos some on the way.  The service was good and Edgardo preached on the crucifixion.  Charlotte had 4 teen girls riding with her back to our house so Carlos and I took the bus.  We still got home well before Charlotte was able to get everything ready.  She had 2 pizzas as well as corn casserole and soup ready pretty quickly.  I thought it looked like a lot but those rather small teen girls sure could eat.  They finished off both the pizzas and I still though we would have one left.  After a devotional and singing they told Charlotte they were ready for the third pizza and ate most of it and dessert.  During the devotional Charlotte had with the girls, Carlos and I went upstairs and had about a two hour study.  It was good but he had no Bible knowledge and has a long way to go.  When the girls left apparently Wicket followed them out and Charlotte did not realize it.  When Carlos and I finished studying and he left about 30 minutes later when we opened the door she ran in.  We were so thankful no one had picked her up because she is small and pretty and friendly.  A little later when we left for evening services in Juayua when we opened the door she stayed under the table and made no effort to go out, until then she had always run out as soon as we opened the door.  It appears that her 30 minute time out was pretty frightening.  On the way we picked up Isabella and her granddaughter Gabriella.  We went by to check on Julia but she was not able to come because she had visitors and Mr. Rivas was still not home, Kelly said they were still too busy to make it tonight but that they could study Wednesday at 3.  We still had a good turnout for services and all were telling us goodbye for our departure on Friday.
