We got coconuts!

The hours are turning into days.  The days are turning into weeks. The weeks are turning into...a month and a half.  My time with the KHG is really starting to fly.  I'm trying my best to keep up with these weekly posts. So with that said, here you go.
The three thirty-three year olds.  On October 1st, all three of these guys were the same age for a day, and then the next day Matt became an old man, oh excuse me, oldER man.  For those who don't know, Javier is an international volunteer from California, Obed is a volunteer from Saipan, and Matt like Javier is an I.V. from Georgia.




We got coconuts! Every once in a while, one of the local publishers brings a cooler full of ice cold coconuts. It's amazing how refreshing some cold coconut juice is on hot day in the tropics.  




Last week we burned the condemned outhouse that the group has been using for a good 7 months.  The site of the flame filled doorway brought great satisfaction to many. 











But it didn't go without a fight.  Here is Tyrone giving it a little nudge.

Sammy and I are the coordinated gangsters.  Sammy arrived a little over a week ago.  He is the newest addition to the list of Kingdom Hall Servants.  If you have a question about the island or culture, he's the guy to talk to.  He's part Kosraen, Pohnpeian, Marshallese, and knows all three languages as well. 


This our overseer, Jake, "cutting" into the beginning of the painting of the missionary home.  This is what I'll be doing for the next week.
