Just Over Half Way

Can you believe its already the half way mark of my trip?! I can’t. Although it has taken this long to get into a routine and get to know all the people I pass in the streets and the market again. So I know it hasn’t been a small amount of time. 

The weather pattern, as I have mentioned has been changing, summer is supposed to be winding down and winter on its way but we still are having high temperatures as early as 9 am and rains in the evenings. Thank goodness the pool has been ready cause after walking a few miles in the sun the best way to beat the heat is pool instead of tea time, I have pool time. J  

We have a new couple in our hall. Tim & Natasha (haven't got the spelling of the last name..) They

have been married for 19 years, he is from Germany and she was born here. They have worked as special pioneers in Germany then were assigned as international servants and we assigned to Zimbabwe. After a few years here they were put in Maui, Fiji and then back here again! They are a cute couple and i'm excited to get to know them and their experiences.

We had a going away party for two of our dear friends. One couple Jim & Wendy Davis helped Chandi and i a ton last year. Sadly they are on their way to England here soon where they can find work and survive a little easier. They shall be missed greatly. 

(Wendy is next to me.) 

The other are moving to an area where a new congregation was formed in the rural areas. (sadly i didn't get a photo of them..)

This last week we had a great time in service last Monday.  We fit 5 of us ladies in the back of a truck, full grown adult ladies i might add. :) I was able to show videos up to 20 times to about 15 kids all day. The overall bonus was that i started two studies with young people in the Bible Story book in English! I was pumped after even being up at 5 am for cart and 10 hours in rain and slight cold. 

A sister from South Africa was visiting us so we put on our good hats and preached until 6 PM! Its so nice to have a large group to help us with the homes, they are desperate for a Kingdom Hall in their area.  Maybe sometime soon it will happen. 

Alight i am off Tuesdays are my "day off" and by that i do all my laundry, dishes, study for meetings and an English course. Some day off. 

Talk later my friends.
