This is the church where we are having the conferences

Church building from the back. I did not take a picture from the front.

Pastor Israel and his wife, both from Cuba

I had another birthday party!

We had dinner with this couple,also from Cuba

Last night w e had our first conference about conflict resolution in the family. It went well. We had about 60 adults in attendance. I am going to have to publish the pictures later because I did not take any since I was busy, but somebody took pictures and will share them with me. I introduced the subject, then Carlos spoke about the 12 steps for conflict resolution, and Rosario had the application where they had to work with their families to solve one conflict. One couple said that they had no conflicts and refused to participate. They also said that they weren't coming back to the rest of the conference. It is sad to see people who need to keep the appearance of perfection. The rest participated, and I hope that they learn to apply the principles.

If you received a copy of our schedule, you see that we have a lot of visitation. I was worried about this, but basically, we just go with the pastor as he makes the rounds visiting the sick. We share from the Bible some inspirational verse to bring them confort. He asks each of us to share something that comes to mind after listening to their problems. They are very appreciative of our visit. Tonight we are going to speak on the radio. It is a Christian am station. We have to be there at 9:30 for a 10:00 live interview. We will see how that goes. That wasn't on the schedule.

We keep going to different homes for meals. I think we are both going to put on about 10 lbs. by the time this week is over.

That is all for now...until next time from West Palm Beach...
