It has been a little while since we posted on the blog, as many of you know many of us working with the group returned in August and several other brothers and sisters went home for a visit during September to October time but now many of us are now back in Belize in the Placencia group. On the return to Placencia within a week we faced a hurricane that was heading south towards Placencia that some were worried about but began to head north as it was heading closer to shore so we experienced no damage or injuries on the peninsula. Where the hurricane hit the worst some brothers and sisters houses were damaged with 3 foot of flooding and roofs being blown off and at least 2 houses were destroyed but the RBC is already taken action to repair the homes and rebuild the brothers houses. As of now we have no reports of injury or death, thanks for your continued prayers for the brothers and sisters that were affected by the hurricane here in Belize.

Since I have not updated the blog for a while I figured it would be a good idea to include some information regarding the group to keep all those posted who read the blog as well an experience about our meetings.

This last Tuesday about 2 hours before meeting we found out that the community center that we are renting for our meetings was going to be used for preparation for the upcoming Halloween festivities for the week, so as an alternate meeting place we sent out a text to all the bible students and publishers that we will be having the meeting at brother and sister Kafka's patio. Almost all of the regular bible students were able to make the adjustment and proved the importance of the words found at Hebrews 10:24,25.

As for the group, the biggest news is that Gino and Olga are now unbaptized publishers and are enjoying every minute of the ministry. There next goal is baptism and they both look forward to continuing to develop there relationship with Jehovah. Since brother Hoban had to leave due to health problems a few months back a special pioneer couple has moved in to help with the group there names are Steve and Telma. We also have another family that moved here to serve for a year, there names are Angelo, Melanie and there two sons are Chandler who is 14 and Spencer who is 16 they will be a great help here as the group continues to grow. I hope that this blog continues to encourage those that are reading it and I will try to update more regularly as many have requested I do so, next week there will also be more experiences from the ministry.
