December 29, 2015

We want to talk about the Bible.  We got up this morning and loaded most of our hanging clothes in the car and a few odds and ends and I went over to the new house to drop them off.  The landlords were both working on last cleaning as well as their domestic helper.  When I got back we loaded up another load and this time Charlotte went with me and after we unloaded we went by Cesar and Eliza's for a short meeting with them and Regina and Family.  The meeting went really well and afterwards we ran Regina, Arnoldo and Elizabeth by our new house so they could see it.  Regina said it was so wonderful that she just wanted to move in with us.  Just after we got home Kelly came by and invited us over for cake to celebrate the 24th birthday of her brother Bennie who is visiting from San Salvador for the holidays.  We had lunch and rested a few minutes then walked on over about 2:30.  They were just finishing up their lunch but as soon as they were done they brought out the cake which was a cheese cake with strawberry pieces on top.  His girlfriend had made it and it was delicious.  As we were finishing the cake Oscar said they wanted us to talk to them about the Bible.  What a wonderful and unexpected surprise.  Well, we talked for about 1 ½ hrs. and he wrote down all the references.  As we were leaving Kelly asked us to come back for dinner for New Year's Eve night so we could meet her father.  Our hopes are high that she will be making a decision soon.  After we left them we ran on over to the new house with another load that we had put in the car during lunch and then we went on to Sister Ana's house for a visit.  Three of her daughters were there and we had a good visit and though she still cried during the prayer she also laughed some.  When we got back home we ate and cleaned up the living room and then our landlord arrived for another study.  He was alone because he said Jimmy (their 9 year old son) had oral surgery today to remove a tooth that was growing in the wrong place and that his wife was home taking care of him.  He stayed until 9 and we had a really good study and discussion.  We asked him to come to the first service in our new building and he said he would try.  After he left I wrote a combined report for Nov and Dec because we had realized just today that we had forgotten to do a November report.  We also did a couple of blogs each, seems we are getting behind on lots of things and tomorrow is full-fledged moving day.
