A Couple Months Behind On my Blog. Let me Try To Catch Up!!!

So we made it back to Panama on October 10th. We were really starting to miss our studies, service here and the brothers and sisters from our hall. So first thing when we came back, was attend the one day assembly. Caught up with everybody there, had a blast!!! Especially, because as I posted before, we had attended the annual meeting and brought back the new Bible with us. It really brought tears to our eyes to see how excited the brothers in the assembly were to see the Bible live!! They had only seen it online so my poor little Bible was all over the assembly hall, but it was the sweetest thing to see how excited the brothers and grateful they are with Jehovah's provision!! Even though it's only in English at the moment, the brothers here can't wait to get it in Spanish soon!!!


Ride back from the assembly with our congregation.

We came back to Guarare and come to find out that our Circuit Overseer and his wife, which we were starting to get closer to, were being assigned to Belize!! We were so sad!!! For them it was a little shock because they did not expect that. They had only been in this Circuit for a little over a year. So our little congregation planned a little going away party for them.
Everybody had so much fun and really enjoyed the encouragement that the Circuit Overseer gave to each one of us!! We were truly blessed by Jehovah to have them here. They were such and encouragement for us personally when we first got here to serve in Panama!! They gave us so much encouragement and really made us feel welcomed! We are truly going to miss them!! But we know that where they got assigned to they will really be and encouragement to the brothers there and the brothers likewise will love them as much as we all did. We know Jehovah has the perfect place for them!!
Aren't they the cutest!!! Miss them already!!

These are the gifts from our little congregation to the C.O. The little metal soldier has the scripture of Ephesians 6:13 written of the complete suit of Armour from God...a young brother from our hall is very talented and made this for him. And the other gift is a couple of cups for each of them with a scripture on it and their names.( Idea from Pintrest!!! ;))
