Day 14 - Saturday March 15th

This morning Chastity, Amanda and I were going to be taking care of the table at the beach. We had to go to the Kingdom Hall, pick up the table, chairs, and literature and be at Manuel Antonio by 9am. We didn’t get a chance to talk to very many English-speaking people but a few of the locals did stop and pick up some of the Spanish literature that we had. Our table was right next to a pay phone and a local man that was working at the beach was on the phone and became very upset and began cursing in English on the phone. When he realized that Chastity was sitting right next to him he apologized for his language and then introduced himself as Butch. We also talked to a man named Marvin when we were leaving and made said he didn’t speak much English but that if we spoke Spanish he would be happy to talk to us about Jesus. I left him the Watchtower and Awake in Spanish and he said he would visit our table and hope to speak to someone in Spanish. We came home at around 2pm, got a bit to eat and rested up a bit. We have our meeting at 4pm today.

After the we took a picture of ourselves with the rest of the congregation and lots of other pictures of the friends. It was very sad knowing that we won’t see many of the friends there for awhile (I say “for awhile” because we do plan on coming back). After leaving the Kingdom Hall we went to Pizza De Marco with the Nelsons, Ingred, Carmen, Nancy, and our gang. The pizza there was some of the best I have ever had. I got the Hawaiian pizza with white pineapple, ham and COCONUT!
Back at the house we all set around and talked about our goal of serving where the need is greater. and how we are going to reach that goal. Start saving more, less spending, and more simplifying.
