Experiences

I know this is why many return looking for the Experiences. So here are a few more that may interest you.

We have a friend that recently moved in who is about to be a teacher in English. The last few weeks she was quite sick and didn't know what to do. She told her son who has decided to not have anything to do with the truth to go to the meeting. After arriving and talking to a few he had the opportunity to see the love and help that is given to those around us. He has even expressed interest in coming more regularly.

Friday morning service is only about a 25 min walk away, Keefe and I decided to walk it this week and try and find English speaking people on the way. No English but many Spanish who we offer tracks to. Keefe learned how to offer a track in Spanish. Later that morning we were on the corner of the area we were going to work and waiting for ours friends. Time went by and people passed us several times, and then out of the blue Keefe grabs a track from my bag and offers it to the next lady who walks by. She takes it and walks away only to turn around and come back to us. She proceeded to tell us that just yesterday she had been told that God didn't have a name and she wanted to know more. As our Spanish is quite limited for that complex of a conversation we did have Spanish speaking friends who went to her home and were there for over an 1hr. Really anyone can be used.

Heidi was given a study this week. Funny part is that the study is in French. Now if you know Heidi she lived in Quebec for 17 years but doesn't speak French the greatest. In fact she has quite the accent. So of all the studies she could get we laugh that it is in French.

This final one may not be as exciting or encouraging but I find it shows that no one will be able to say "I didn't have a chance to hear." We were out one morning and ran into some Spanish friends. One kind older sister asked us to follow her to a home she knew to be English that she met that morning. We went along. Upon our arrival he knew who we were and why we were there he made it very clear he did not want us there. All that being said. This gentleman had a chance to speak to us in the States, he was then given a chance here in Spanish, and finally given a opportunity in Ecuador in English and still made his stand Very Clear. There is no question that all will have a fair chance.
