Rurals

Every Monday our congregation travels more then 45 minutes outside the city of Harare to preach where it is seldom worked. The areas are high density and very poor, but white for the truth.
This is were our Shona really comes in handy.   I went with Primrose, she had three studies I'm both English & Shona. It been wonderful to learn so many different ways to conduct a study while I've been here.
There was a group of kids walking by so I grabbed the tablet and turned the Becoming Jehovah's  friend app on...they became glued. We also got the Bible lessons out and I'd ask.."chii eee chii.." Which means..what is it? They then would respond in Shona, they knew no English. They had been playing with rusty pipes so once I discarded those, we got to work.
We start studies in the Listen to God and Good news from God brochure its the easiest thing. I love it..
Lunch was under a huge tree with our group of 20 next to the tobacco field. Its so wired that in the shade its at least 15 degrees lower then in the hot winter sun. The rains are gone just a dry heat now. The last few days we've been hitting service hard, walking over 10 miles a day and handing invites and mags out like candy.. Actually our hall has run put of them... So we are now looking at old ones.
Alright I feel that's all I've got to say this week. Mainly our lives are service so there are only some many stories that comes from that...
This week on the service meeting we did get to do the demo, we are having many doorstep studies hopefully we can get a few to the hall soonish. We will keep you updated.
