Yeraldi & I had assignments on the first week of the new program. Mine was a two minute demo of what to say the first time you meet a deaf person in the territory. My friend Gail from northern Cali was my assistant! We had fun, even tho I was a bit nervous. The new program every week at our meetings is so instructional, I feel like we gain so much knowledge & practical wisdom from each week. Thanks so much to the GB!
We took our friend, who visited us from California for a month, to Placencia to see the Caribbean Sea fur her first time ever. It was rainy on the way there, but we had one really nice beach day. She even bought some fresh caught Barracuda for dinner! It was great! Barracuda is delicious!
Several days a week we spend searching the surrounding neighborhoods & villages for the deaf/mute hard of hearing ones who want to learn. We enjoy a beautiful scenery, get to know new friends, and meet the deaf and their family. We have found several deaf who really enjoy having a personal bible study, some need language lessons as well since they did not get much or any formal education.
We walk a few hours a day out in the heat (75-95°+85% humidity), searching for the de,af & sitting in on the bible studies with the deaf or their families. So to refresh ourselves we not only hang out with new friends but enjoy the beautiful surroundings too!
We went to the caves and the little blue whole that you have to hike to (we swam in the super cool water)! Then another day we found a resort with a pool that you can pay to use for the day. It had a beautiful view!
Hello! Yes we made it to Belize a few weeks ago. Due to lack of internet (frown) this is my first blog post. So here are some of our adventures so far!
Or truck packed with suitcases and dogs! We had a safe abd fairly uneventful trip through Mexico.
