We managed to all smile with eyes open for a prayer card photo. So when we return to the USA will have new cards showing off our growing kids.
More harvesting of star fruit [John Pierre really likes it] to share with the ladies. Some told Cory that they would be bringing this new fruit home to share with their families.
Many will plant the seeds and try to grow their own trees. Wouldn't it be neat if in 3 years 100 families have their own star fruit trees!
Sharing the Lord's love through sharing knowledge and trees-the reason we are here.
Sunday church started at 6 a.m. [we made it by 6:30 so not to bad] Of the 24 women's missionary groups in the North 22 church representatives attended this year's conference.
Ladies stayed in class rooms and the House of Hope. The final service rang with praise and admonishments to be right with the Lord and about His business.
Here the presidents from the different churches came in singing to place small cloth bags, each unique, in the offering.
Cory and I each gave greetings and comments. Some of the ladies received banana trees and star fruit trees.
Kid's club met outside because of the Conference. Thankfully no afternoon rains fell. More birthday celebrations.
More and more our thoughts and plans turn to Michigan and the fall. Our pace in school motivated by the countdown picked up last week.
A few events now reside in ink on our calender for the USA trip. Work on tickets and arranging speaking dates continues. Thank you for your prayers.
