Photos of the Week!

Disaster relief work is moving ahead. Can't believe we are here in Roxas for only 2 more weeks, time has flown by. We started erecting the 3 house in Lawaan this week and we are getting really friendly with the brothers that we are building for. They are so excited, they just walk through the house is awe and can't believe it. One sister said, when they said "foreigners" a common expression here in the Philippines were going to come and help build them a new house, she said it was like a dream! They keep trying to feed us and take such good care of us, any thing they can do to show their appreciation.

    Tell the brothers- Here in Mexico, we are building a new kingdom hall, and the talk on sunday was about the building work that has gone on in Zambia, Romania,etc. Thought I saw you Denise ironing. Was that you? Anyway there is so much work going on in Jehovah´s Organization and glad to see you guys are enjoying it. Enjoy the short time left. Diane and Felix
