Preaching Near Mombacho Volcano

I met up with a few friends and went preaching in the area arround the foot of Volcano Mombacho.  It was surprisingly cool and windy (a great change from hot Granada.)  I even had a chance to meet some of the friends from Mexico who are serving on the Pioneer Route.  We all had a great time and I had a nice opportunity to practice my Spanish :-)

Not sure what kind of fruit this is.

Tire swing!

How many times do you get to pet a bull in service?

How cute are they?!  Preaching on their 23rd wedding anniversary.

Sisters sent from Mexico to help with the preaching here.

Lunchtime! 

Typical Nicaraguan lunch (and dinner!) beans, rice and plantains yum!

This sister was ok with the cats, dogs and pigletts begging for food.  But she nearly jumped out of her chair when a hog charged towards her!  (You can kind of see it by the chair)

Proper pup

More friends from Mexico

This sister (standing) was sooo hospitable.   We had brought our own small lunches but she brought us more food.  As soon as you thought you were done, she brought another dish.  Even the friends who went home to eat were welcomed with heaping plates of food when they arrived for the afternoon service group.

This young brother is so zealous.  He is conducting bible studies with two of his peers.  Both of the little bible students are now attending all meetings on their own with he and his family.

Food always draws a crowd.

How can you not love a face like this?!

More food!

We sat around eating and talking about how we came into the Truth.
