Day 12

Like last week, Thursday we would normally have gone to Joann's house for meeting prep. However she was unavailable so instead we headed to the Kingdom Hall to meet with the group.

When we arrived, the gate was still locked, so we waited in the shade for someone to come. Joanna and Emily had both been out early morning preaching as well. Fortunately, Natalie and sons showed up so we headed to my canvasing territory pretty close to the house.

We talked to people in the businesses and houses along the way, sometimes giving out tracts or magazines as well. I was walking with Natalie and she had a few good discussions with people and was able to share some scriptures with them as well.

It was really hot, the past couple of days it seems like it's getting hotter and hotter here! So we finished up pretty early and headed back to the house. Will still had service to do later that afternoon though helping Joen and Domingo prepare for the meeting!

We almost finished the Congregation Bible Study prep but had to leave Cassy to finish up since Bailey was getting off the bus around 5 downtown.

Jo and I got some ice cream while waiting and when the bus pulled up, we were so relieved Bailey had arrived safe with all of her limbs and bags!

At meeting that night, Tom asked me right before starting to copy sign for the Bible Study and Highlights. So I got to stand up front and copy the audience's comments so that they didn't have to walk up to the front and sign it and everyone in the audience could still see the comment. It was great to help out!

So we had a modeling session!

That night we went out for ice cream again at Bon with Tom, Natalie and their two kids. So I've definitely been on an ice cream kick here!
