Visited the English group to hear the special talk.
Here are some friends we made.

This sister is a day commuter to Bethel, she works in the construction office, at 25 she has a degree in architecture.

You might recognize this guy, was a roofer in New Orleans relief work.
Getting the moment right, what it is all about.

Back to the local kingdom hall. Here we find a second day commuter. Works in house keeping.
Very friendly in the congregation as we can see here.


Above we say good buy to the Knapps. A nice friend. Tony worked diligently in plumbing and Tracy in paintura. As usual we celebrate by going to McDonalds. Hmgh.

Below is some shots from around Ecuador.
Haven't been traveling, but others have and here are some of their pictures.





Really it is worthwhile to go back to the 84 or so yearbook and read about the work here in Ecuador. Really reminds you how when Jah opens a territory, it will have certain success.
May Jah be wit all of you back home.
Thanks for your encouragement.

Here is the picture of the sign language group we visited.

Last Friday we had a "drywall party" there was 4 teams of 4 and we wiped out a single floor of the res C building.

Congregation lining up to get the mem. invites.

Tony and Tracy K, with a new pioneer sister that Tracy adopted. Tony is always watching his wife. I tell you he is deeply in love with her. Its nice to see. Reminds me of DD and LD. :-)

Look a butterfly.

Look closely and you will see the heaves in the road. It rained so much that the roadbed slide under the pavers. crazy amount of rain.

A nice little waterfall in the territory. of corse this turns into a raging torrent in the rain.

For AD the aux pio I did this. This is as close to an iguana I have ever been.

crazy bugger scratched my arm to bits.

My roommate during is "Halo" time.

Greetings from the wet side of the world. Service today for 4 hours got a new presentation to use with the memorial. Starting to get comfortable, ok strike that, less nervous speaking Spanish. Starting to comment regularly at the meetings now, with preprepared comments. thanks to altavista translation service called babelfish. Tomorrow see me saying good bye to a friend, with my same name. It is frankly amazing how fast friendships are forged. A brother in Brooklyn said that these friendships would happen and last a lifetime. True it is.
