We're baaack...
I'm glad you got things rolling again everyone. I check the blog every once in a while, but I can never bring myself to be the first one to start...I think its a deep-seated fear of rejection. Like, if I blog, and no one responds, I just can't handle that rejection...just kidding, really its just laziness.
Its so great to hear about how well everyone is doing. It makes me so happy. I wish we all could've heard Sabine's talk, I'm sure it was excellent.
Gina, you should post more pictures of Sam...I know you guys are wicked busy, and we totally miss seeing you more often. We'll get together soon, I know.
Its been such a busy busy summer, with no slowing down in sight. Ian is auxilliary pioneering this month, so its sure to be jam packed too, but in a good way. Things are going great in Portuguese. The studies keep coming, and it seems like ever so slowly we're getting some new recruits to join us. Our average attendance at the Saturday meeting has been around 45 I'd say, which is not bad, considering there were some months before that it was only like 30 or so. I'm always amazed at the fact that we always have a different speaker for the public talk. You would think, since its a foreign language there wouldn't be enough brothers to go around, but we've only had a couple of repeats and most of the time that was a last minute fill-in. We've had brothers from all over though, so that's nice. We had a bethel speaker last week from a New Jersey congregation and he gave the public talk in Portuguese and then a special talk after an abbreviated Watchtower, in English. It was great it was entitled "How Tall Are You?" (O que e sua altura?) It was great.
I want to hear all about the game yesterday Rick...it must've been totally awesome!
That's great that you were able to do some letter-writing Leanne, keep up the good work!
Keep the momentum alive...keep blogging!
Love,
Sheri
