Guys you gotta read Marlenes comment Kevin and i blew boogers when we read it...talk about the frustration of communicating in a different country..hahah. Marlene you should start a blog!
Kevin was announced as a Elder Friday night at the meeting. Same day he received a phone from our boss (which we had been bugging him for but interesting we got it the day we needed it for Elder business.) This is for local use only unfortunately. We haven't had to ride the bus for a month, been using the company van and it allows us to go in service longer and more prompt, and available for after meeting ..meetings. Interesting how these blessings always come at the right time and for the glory of Jehovah's name.
Yesterday we had a skinny group in service so Samira our Lebanese sister invited us to go on her calls in ARABIC...go ahead be jealous (A&V). We only had time for 2 in 2 hours because they serve coffee and want to talk first , Kevin ended up being a choffer because there were no men at home and the women are not allowed to have a man in the house but do you think he minded....NO. Listening to this language is hilarious. In my head at least. Quite a few clicking and German sounds to it. But it is wonderful to always have an adventure in service. I now have Arabic mags for my sad looking display..I know Marlene i will have to just bite the bullet and put a pic on but now I am at the coffee house and do not have a pic of it.
We passed our Spanish congregation this am in service I yelled out of the van and waved they did a double take then waved back, I think they are getting used to me.

I hope they are getting used to you, Katalaina! How exciting though, that you got to go in service in Arabic! Marhaba! Thats hello, at least thats what A&V say...it may mean something else : ) hehe. And congrats to Dad, just means more work for him though, but to the benefit of the congregation. Still excited for y'all, and a bit jealous, but hey! we can try to hablar that there arabic when we get there. ; ) Love ya Mucho, Tiff y Cass
So you're the managers now. Wow. You moved up fast. Sorry we haven't written lately, been very busy. We really miss you guys. If you ever get a phone number that receives out of the country calls, we would love to be able to talk every once in awhile. We think of you often and smile.
Love,
Tracey
