Week of June 7th

Had a challenging week last week. Oliver and Stephanie got hit with minor stomach bug that lasted a few days.  Moved houses to another rent house on Friday. We will have to do another move in 3 months. A couple from Canada rented us there house while they visit back home. They are familar with the Jehovah's Witnesses reputation as being responsible and clean people. This serves as a good witness since this helps with the fact that a lot of people and hotels don't want childen.  The house is perfect for us. It is furnished, washer/dryer and sits on a beautiful lot with fruit trees, outdoor sitting area, pond with water feature.

We moved on Friday, then turned around and hosted a going away party for the Gilby's on Saturday. They are going back home to New Foundland for a couple of months to earn some income and they plan on returning. The theme was mexican food, and it turned out nice.

Sunday I had the priviledge of conducting the Watchtower study for the first time. Thanks to Jehovah all went well.  We have another elder arriving coming back from the states on Wednesday. This is a relief since Richard Gilby is currently the only elder here in Volcan. So it has just been the 2 of us handling all the parts for the service meeting and bible highlights. I have had the priviledge of having between 3-4 parts on every Tuesday meeting. Jehovah's holy spirit is powerful.
