Hello All!
Lacey and I traveled to the states for a few weeks to visit family soooo that is the reason why we have not updated our blog. We arrived here in Mexico on Monday. It was just in time too, because this week with have the visit of the English Circuit Overseer. It has been a busy week so far but really excellent. We are all enjoying the Memorial invitation work. Although we all have 'personal english territories' (which is a list of names in the city of those that speak english, whether we have met them or they are interested or not) the next three days we are focusing on our return visits to also invite them to the talk on Sunday. The goal is to have 60 in attendance and I really hope that we exceed that number. Tonight we had a really encouraging thing happen, a woman that had just been found in the street work and invited to the meeting, actually came! She has a study set up with one of the sisters for tomorrow! She has been searching for truths and has been studying the bible on her own. So likely she has lots of questions. Our sister Claudia Young is going to be studying with her. We'll let you know how it goes. Also if any are wondering about the Doctor from San Fransisco, we are still calling on him, maybe he will attend the memorial, but he still has reservations about the translation of Yahweh into modern languages. But we are not giving up on him.
Well we are glad to be back to good ol' Mexico, even having mexican experiences right away. Because we flew in at night and didnt go to the ATM we didnt have many pesos with us just some dollars and spare change. The night we left from Tuxtla to drive to San Cristobal we scraped together 26 pesos to put gas in the car to get home, and 40 pesos for the toll road, then the next morning we needed milk for our coffee and in the house found 10 and half pesos to purchase a liter of milk which was 2 and half pesos less than what we needed, so the really nice neighborhood tienda woman gave it to us anyway and I paid her back later. Gotta love the kindness here!!
Sorry for being MIA for almost a month but
Keep reading we'll be posting things next month and pictures from Memorial!!
Thanks
