Photos and stories from the week Feb 12-19

Image
 So the past month has been a lot of routine... beach day and then preaching days. I do try to keep up with daily highlights on WhatsApp but sometimes it just seems like who wants to see another picture of what I had for breakfast?! So here is a photo dump and highlights from this week and then I'll be posting for the other weeks. We have been trying to get out and do more things. The sun sets between 6, 6:30 so that leaves a lot of time before bed. We don't have a car so we try to walk or bike home before sunset. We don't have a TV at home so sitting on a couch and watching streamed movies on your laptop isn't exciting every evening. That being said, if we don't go out during the day for the beach or for preaching, you can spend the whole day at home, because others work and have lives of their own. So we have been trying to find activities that either we can do by ourselves out of the house or certainly that others can join us on. So there is a local hotel - the T...

What Happens in Cayo...

Image
 Just back in from a whirlwind trip to Cayo. Brief geography lesson:  Belize has 6 districts. We live in Stann Creek District, and have so far visited Toledo, Belize, Orange Walk and have driven through Corozal. This trip we took to Cayo. Cayo is home to the only ASL congregation in the country. It wasn't always this way but that's the way it is now. One ASL Cong and one ASL group for the whole country (although technically we are now a pre-group). The CO came and visited us last week in Mango Creek and he was visiting Cayo next. We had been invited to come up for his visit in Cayo back when we thought we weren't going to get a visit of our own. Since he did come to Mango Creek, we changed our plans. However, a few sisters in our Kriol congregation were going to go just for the weekend and did we want to come along?! We drove up Friday morning and stopped first in Belmopan for coffee and to meet up with these guys.              If the brother...
