Wednesday had been a day that Cesar and Dwaine went out and I went with Seily.  Since Mario and Seily have returned to Santa Ana, Dwaine and I headed to Briseida’s.  One good aspect of recent development is that Antonio moved his work to his home.  They put a cover over their entrance and the landlord put in electricity.  So, he has some carpentry type work that he does at home.  Since he was there, he joined in on the study.  He had good comments, but shared he lacked conviction to go to services.  We have studied with Briseida for a long time, and at times Antonio had sat in, but they do not come to services.  Briseida regularly comes to Ladies’ Events and sometimes to prayer hours, but that is all.  Hopefully with his being home, we can develop more of a family relationship.  For lunch, Carolina, Ingrid and Arnoldo came.  Carolina was finishing a study on salvation and Arnoldo went with Dwaine and Cesar to the church building to study with Eber, Michael, Melvin and Mr. Rivas.  Afterwards they did go on to Sister Ana’s for a study, but only for 15 minutes.  She was still under the weather with her cold.  I went on to Socorro’s.  This study ended up going for almost two hours.  We finished up a film we were watching and again studied baptism.  We had a carload to go to church with us and a good service.  Kelly had requested to use the building on Sunday for her sister’s graduation celebration, so I asked what I could do to help.  We talked in generalities and set up a visit so we could talk more about it on Thursday.
