first official service day!

Well, where to begin.

We arrived on the island around 7pm (one hour behind)the boat ride was twice as long because of the high winds and because only one engine was working (can you believe it)? It's been quite chilly and rainy. Lots of downpour...

Chaos at the port. With 10 suitcases. It's the event of the day when the boat arrives. We all piled in a four wheeler (7 including baby on dad's lap driving).

This morning group was at Pam & Dave's. Only one baptized sister on the island. What a trooper, she is so faithful. 10 years here alone... So Dave reviewed the text in spanish, he's doing very well, Pam too.

We did door to door, Bible studies, rv's... People recognize us as Church people, friendly yet they have their little routine going on... Just like in Canada. We need to send you pics of the territory. Honestly, we almost got knocked off the road many times, by scooters and dirt bikes... some of these path roads are, well words fail to describe them. Tonight, is the service meeting. Tomorrow public discourse and W. study. Can't wait to see the KH and see who comes.

We met an Americain on land (La Ceiba) who clinged to us and came to Utila just because we came. He's agnostic, but very opened to our discussions. We hope he comes tomorrow...
