Good afternoon! Garry is headed north with some visitors. They are friends of the missionaries at this location and will be helping construct a meeting house for the new believers there. The believers are excited about their new-found faith and it's encouraging to hear what God is doing in their lives.

The boys are at the badminton court, at the class they attend on Saturday afternoons. This afternoon they are also preparing for the upcoming tournament, so they were looking forward to their class!

These are some bananas in in our yard... we didn't plant them, but we are enjoying their fruit! Kevin takes care of the trees as well as his garden. Below is a new pineapple plant he just planted... the last ones were destroyed by the man who cuts our grass, so we hope this one lives to full maturity! Lettuce, cucumbers, peppermint, and bell peppers continue to grow for him also.

Kaleb has been busy drawing again these days, spurred on toward completing his newest art assignment-- a family portrait. That has gotten him back into drawing and painting again, and today he was diligently working on another picture of a knight. He's also still learning to make different paper airplanes as well as inventing a few of his own-- and Kevin has actually joined him in this pursuit also.

Garry is still a bit under the weather, though he has been able to complete his scheduled flights. On Monday he has a survey flight scheduled and Tuesday he needs to pick up some of our missionaries from a location to the south of the island. Pray that God gives strength to do what's needed and wisdom to know what isn't needed right now.
