We Have Not Fallen Off the Face of the Planet....

I know many may be wondering what in the world has been going on with us since we arrived back in the U.S. We have been non stop busy. We bought a house, got a dog, have been working on assignments for the Kingdom Hall, Assemblies and Pioneer School. It seems that we have become just as busy as we were while living in Bolivia. Our congregation here is less then 50 publishers, we have 4 elders and 3 pioneers. Justin unfortunately was not able to continue pioneering here, but I have continued. It is not as easy here to pioneer. Yes it is easier in the physical sense, but since we are such a small congregation we do not have a lot of support. It is usually only about 5 or less out in service everyday. It has been tough, but we have found interested ones. Justin has a study that wants to study everyday. He comes to all the meeting, is prepared and wants to start preaching. I have two studies. One with a young sister in the hall and another with the sister of a gentleman who is on his way to being baptized as well. We are so thankful to Jehovah for blessing us. We recently went to a Spanish group 2 hours away in Kentucky to give a public talk. There were only 19 publishers. It was great to see them starting up a Spanish group. We miss Bolivia very much and especially our Bolivian family. I will try to keep this updated as much as I can. Here are some pictures of our house and recent happenings.
