Last full
day. Rosalidia, Xiomara and Emily came
to help with breakfast. I have truly
been blessed all week with many helpers.
Our service this week was planned at the school that is just across the
street from us. It was combo that
included both Juayua and Salcoatitan. That was a time saver and helped with
several trips to the house of items forgotten or needed. The school opened a classroom for the
children and Linda and several campaigners helped with the classes. It was great to have some materials brought
from the States to assist with classes.
We are always in need of supplies and extras that we can’t get
here. Nancy Jackson has often headed up
gathering some supplies in the U.S. and I often think I don’t thank her and her
life talk enough. Rodney had ordered
some items for the kids and had the team do some cutting for us and it was all
greatly appreciated. In the auditorium,
Allen did a lesson to wrap up his series on marriage and the team was
recognized. Also, food bags were handed
out to some members. There are such
deep, deep needs for just the basics and a food bag can give a good boost. Many gave their thanks for all. I am sure I did not convey all the
appreciation members and visitors were expressing to everyone. What a blessing. For the afternoon, many went to the chorros
in Juayua, the waterfalls in Juayua. We
have recently had a lot of rain and they were really full. Dwaine and I have never gone, but we planned
to go next week with our family. Mario
led the tour and I think it all got rave reviews! We rested a few minutes and several visited
shops again to wrap up souvenirs. For the
night, we had a dinner for the leaders the remainder of the group went to Good
Pizza. We met for a couple of hours and
had the opportunity to assess the work and campaign. It was a great time of encouragement.
