Tuesday, the 23rd
A very full day of service, schoolwork, cleaning, studying for meeting and then off to the beach for our last play at the playa.
"Oh ya baby!!!! Did you catch that wave?"
Logan is a natural..... and Elesia and I had fun jumping the waves...
while Erika did what she loves the best....baking in the sun and then cooling off in the water
We stayed just long enough to enjoy our last pictures,
and a beautiful sunset....
before packing up and heading home to get ready for meeting.
Our last tuesday night meeting was wonderful and sad at the same time... Nate and I were asked to do the presentation of the special edition of the Watchtower on the Kingdom. I was his householder for the presentation and was suppose to be familiar with the 'Lords Prayer', but believed that God's Kingdom was only in our hearts. He then talked about Rev 5:9,10 where it states that this "was made to be a kingdom and priests to our God, and they are to rule as kings over the earth" (more than just a feeling within my heart) and explained that in that prayer...we pray for that Kingdom (Gov't) to come here on earth, and then offered the magazine and impressed the importance of going to my own copy of the Bible to look up more scriptures that were listed in the article on what the Kingdom is and what it will do for mankind. He shared the comforting scripture in Rev 21:3,4....It was a nice example on how to offer the special magazine
A wonderful congregation....I will miss bunches, but so glad to have the opportunity to be here and meet sooo many great people that are my brothers and sisters too. Just imagine how amazing Paradise will be when there is no evil in the world and everyone is happy and all serving the one who created all.
After tears and a snack at a nearby restaurant,
we said more good-byes and headed home to finish packing
I had to take this picture of the kids crashed out, their last night at our home away from home!
Off to get a few hours of sleep. zzzzzz
