And a great time was had by all...

...but probably mostly by me! 
Mark, Chad and Michele have been helping the Ochoa family build a Garage on their property so they have been very busy all week while Amanda and I have been out in service. It seems to me that we have not been in a routine since at least 6 weeks before we left New Zealand so this week has been awesome - being able to get some sort of normal life going. I have just come home from climbing the mountains and although it makes me very tired (need my siesta) I am extremely satisfied with everything. I placed 2 mags and a book this morning, did 2 doorstep studies with calls and made arrangements to take back 2 bibles to different people - and the best part about it - my partner did not have to help me out at all with my presentations. 2 weeks of intense spanish training in pioneer school must have paid off!
Anyway off to grab forty winks now - hasta luego!

Hola mi hermana...
I love reading your blog; it's so encouraging & interesting. I am living in Cuenca vicariously through you:)
BTW, what part of NZ are you from?
There was a couple that lived here in the States a few years & they moved to Wellington. Carl & Beverly Meyers from So.Africa.
Service sounds wonderful in EC; maybe I'll get there someday.
