Two Fisch in Belize: BLURBS FROM HOPKINS

This is Sue Rose and her bible study Carmelita. Sue is originally from Tunisia, and grew up in France. She moved to London with her husband Paul (introduced in an earlier post)... so imagine her awesome accent! I LOVE HER! Her study Carmelita cannot read, but is soaking up the truth from the Listen to God Brochure. Her children sit in on the study most of the time, and they answer too. Did you notice they're having their study on a random set of concrete stairs in her front yard?

Same scene... just different cropping I guess?

This is Ebony. She is 11 yrs old, and comes to ALL the meetings by herself... on foot! While her bible teacher is out of town I have the privilege of studying with her, and we make an evening of it. She comes over around 5pm, we eat dinner, we study, and then we play games, Eric included :) This particular study was on a Saturday when she came over to study for the meeting so that we could prepare simple answers for her to participate. This is her practicing the Kingdom song we were going to sing at the meeting the next day... SO CUTE! She sings at the top of her lungs at the meeting, her zeal is amazing!

This is baby Sanjay. Look out... Azelia is NOT coming home! ha ha ha

This is baby Sanjay's real mom :) Her name is Rosie. She is studying with Sue Rose. We were studying about the ransom with her the other day, and as we used the pictures in the Listen to God Brochure to illustrate what Adam lost that caused us to need the ransom... she asked, "Where did they get those clothes from?" (You know, the picture of them being expelled form the garden of Eden wearing skin garments). So we turned to Gen. 3: 21 to show her that Jehovah clothed them. Then Rosie said, "That is how we know that we worship a loving God... he didn't send them out naked to be ashamed, even though they deserved it!" I could not believe the connection she was making... I NEVER got that from reading that verse, but she was absolutely right! The studies here are SO encouraging!
