Funny picture

Last night before the meeting Papa Nathaniel was showing kids pictures on his computer and I thought it was a pretty funny picture.



Lots happened yesterday for me to blog about but I feel too lazy!! I'm actually in the middle of talking to my best friend over chat right now!! Blogging can wait. I'll do it later or tomorrow.

Switching houses...Meeting...

Not this weekend but next weekend we are going to be switching houses out here. Stephen and Ayala are going to move in with my family and Elezar and Dylanna are moving next door, where Ayala is living now, in with Joel and Rushi. We were going to do it this weekend but Stephen will be out of town and we have a horse ride planned at Ben and Toni's this Sunday!! Hopefully I can get some good pics to post.
The meeting Tuesday night was good. Brother Robert, one or the guys that come, talked a lot and preached out of the Bible. We sang many songs at the beginning. I never got a chance to talk to Ariel. We got there, ate, sang, had a meeting, then she left with her mom and dad. I hope to get to know her better sometime. She needs friends.
We have a meeting tonight at my house. Ben and Toni, Thomas and Erica, and some people from the village are coming out for it. I'll let you know tomorrow what happened if anything exciting happened.

My dad's birthday is tomorrow along with Papa Asher's!!

Life in general

Well, life seems to be slowing down a little. We've had loads of meetings lately and Thomas and Erica have been out here a lot. I think they are coming to Ben and Toni's tomorrow night for the meeting there. All of the Gatehouse will be there tomorrow night too. We are praying that things go smoothly and that we will be closer to them then ever. Ever since the men's breakfast last Saturday morning, lots of barriers seem to have fallen between the guys from Ben's group and our men. So I hope we feel more connected to them. Last Tuesday at the meeting at Ben and Toni's, I met a 17 year old girl named Ariel, not pronounced like my sister Ariel's name. At the end of the meeting I got up the courage to talk to her. We didn't really say much. She is very lonely and doesn't have any friends. I am really hoping to get closer to her. Maybe we can talk tomorrow night!

Thursday night meeting

Thursday night we had a meeting in our living room. Thomas and Erica and children came along with Ben, Toni and some adults from the village. It was a very good meeting. We sat around and talked about old times and Thomas and Erica talked about how they met and their lives from then until now.
