Taking a break from the rain

The two Elenas
In the morning I got to preach with the other Elena in Spanish. In the afternoon I had plans with Debbie to go visit calls again. On our way back from a not at home we met an Evangelical woman and shared some scriptures with her before getting back in the truck.

We headed to see Bertania who I had first contacted last week. She was home and invited us in. We showed her the Truth tract and she thought all the questions looked interesting. We discussed the first and third with her, which she really enjoyed, so we showed her the Bible Teach book as well. After going over the first few pages, we set up to come back next week and discuss the first chapter.

It was getting pretty late but we still had another Bible Study to visit. A younger woman and her little sister were both studying out of the Good News brochure. It was a really enjoyable study and we didn't finish up there until 8PM!

2/20 - Wednesday

Nothing much happened Wednesday so I don't have any pictures. Bailey and I had done some early morning preaching downtown by ourselves and when we met at the hall, it didn't work out to continue in service. So we took the day off and stayed home.

2/21 - Thursday

This is where we met for Spanish


There was a cat a the house that really didn't want to get off his comfy chair

We hiked up some crazy dirt hills to reach people that morning



This was my preaching partner for the morning

Anylina came to meeting that night!!

Pricilla, Natalie's study we visited in the morning 

We studied signs and helped her prepare for the meeting

That afternoon I went with Lauren to visit a little girl who is deaf, Yanet. She had a few friends that came and watched as well. We were trying to teach her who God is. Here Lauren is showing them Listen and Learn in ASL on her tablet 
Here's what I drew.
