I don't know why some people change churches; what difference does it make which one you stay home from?

Last week, ladies from the Wednesday Christian Ladies Group, along with Henry, spent time working at Casa Hogar para Ninos Esperanza cleaning an upstairs room in preparation and anticipation of the birth of Lorena’s baby. The baby is due the first week in March and Lorena will make a beautiful mother.

It was good to see Trish and her girls back from the US and a special thanks to Harold for rounding up the crew he brought. Also, thanks again Harold for helping with the service two weeks ago. It was also great to see Prince and Kathy back in paradise and we hope to see you at the Pizza Luncheon.
