Visits


We went with the sisters to visit this family. The husband rides a bike with a wagon on the back and collects trash around the city and recycles it to make a living. The area you see is their home. On the other side of the curtain is another family, there is no wall there, just a curtain. The wife cooks outside and their is a comunity rest room not far away. They have a difficult time learning, but come to church every Sunday and they greet us so warmly.




We went to visit this family the sister missionaries are teaching. A father and his three sons. The father is a construction worker and the mother left a few years ago. He is working hard to support his boys, 14 and twins 12. They are so receptive to the truth but with the father's working all the time, it is hard to get time to teach them. It was such a wonderful visit. The boys are at church all the time, the father has to work so the progress is slow.

And sometimes I think that I don't have any privacy!

It makes me think of all the amenities that we have to help us save time and not be so busy so we can have extra time to do the Lords work. We are so blessed. What do we do with that extra time... fill it with more stuff or more service??? Makes me think I need to do better.
