My Neighbors

           Two Jehovah Witness ladies usually come on Saturday mornings to give my neighbor, Jamili, classes. The next day our family takes her to our Christian church. I feel like we are in a battle for her soul. I’m always looking for new verses to show her that Jesus is God. I think we are winning because she’s the one who actually invited my other neighbor, Rodolfo, this past Sunday.

            For her birthday this year we gave Jamili a new Bible because the only one she had was the one from her Jehovah Witness teachers. She was very excited. After that I invited her to church to use it. She had a wonderful time and she has been coming ever since.

            Rodolfo’s a really great friend most of the time, so I thought he was a Christian. Then Saturday when Jamili brought up the subject, he didn’t quite know if he was a Christian or Catholic or anything at all. So Jamili and I suggested that he come with us to church the next day. He asked his mom and she said it was ok. At 9:45 the next morning, we all hopped in the car and were on our way. I am pretty sure he had a good time.

            The other lady in the car is Tia Susy. She is my Spanish teacher and lives right around the corner. We ride together to church a lot.

            I guess I am getting the hang of being a missionary to kids just around my neighborhood. I am glad God put us in this neighborhood. We are going to church next Sunday and I hope we will be just as crowed in our car.  

I'm Back!

Hi everybody! My mom said it might be a good idea to start up my blog again as a home school writing project.

Last night I was thinking about what I might be doing if we still lived in our house in San Diego. Although I still miss my friends, I am really glad that God called my family to come down here to Mexico. I really can’t wait until the Baby Home is done and has babies in it.

I don’t know about where you guys live, but down here in Mexico the temperature is in the 50s. Our house is made of cement blocks. In the summertime it gets so hot and in the evening our house just keeps all the hot air in, like an oven. Right now it’s the opposite. It is warmer outside than it is inside; our house is like a freezer. We have to put little heaters in all the rooms at night.

Well, I am glad to be able to write about what is going on in my life. Even if no one reads it, I will come back and read it someday. Make sure to check out the Baby Home blog as well! God bless, Lucy
