Sunday School

I rejoiced with those who said to me, "Let us go to the house of the LORD."Psalm 122:1

This morning we went to church. This morning it was just Sunday School. They had all ages together, from 8 to adult. There were no small children present, except for the pastor's grandson who is one year old. We still don't understand very well how the schedule works, but we know that they have to work around the main church's schedule because Pastor Alejandro is still required by the main church to attend there regularly.

Pastor Alejandro taught on John 19, the last words of Jesus on the cross. He is an excellent teacher. Everything he said was solid doctrine. He repeated concepts, reviewed, and asked questions. There was also an opportunity for the congregation to ask any questions at the end. One of the men, whose wife just had surgery, asked about blood transfusions. Again, the answer was solid doctrine. I talked to the man afterward, and he told us that his mother-in-law is a JW. We praise the Lord that the group is getting good teaching.

After church, we went a block down the road to visit the family who accepted the Lord a week ago. We found one woman home. Her husband was working. The other couple found work in a town nearby, and they moved. We introduced her to the pastor and his wife, and another family who lives just four houses down the other block. They invited her and her husband to attend a couples' Bible study tomorrow evening. She said that she would go. We also left her with two New Testaments.

By that time, it was lunch time; so we went to the surfer restaurant which is not very far from town. We took the pastor and his wife and the man whose wife just had surgery with his two children. It was still early enough for breakfast. All of us, except for John, had a typical breakfast of rice, beans, eggs, bread and coffee. John had banana pancakes. I really liked their breakfast better than their dinners. We are now relaxing at home for a little while before some friends come over to visit.

Just strolling down the neighborhood!
