Visits with Mary
For a few weeks several ladies from church, along with Mary and me, visited folks who needed a visit. Then, little by little they quit coming, so now it's just Mary and me. Mary told me she was going to suspend the visitations, but I told her, "Don't do that. I'll go with you! Even two of us can visit!" So we're continuing. Mary is a retired schoolteacher, as is her husband Nacho. She keeps extremely busy with her family, Bible studies, and of course visitation! Today we visited Cruz (Cross), and encouraged her to keep coming to church even though there have been some hurtful things happen in the recent past. We had a delightful visit with her and her young son, Manuel, who is 7, but looks 9. When his mom brought out the fruit to serve, he helped himself, and helped himself, and helped himself! It's fun to watch such a young child enjoy fruit - rather than junk food! God is going to use our visits to encourage. We're even talking of visiting more than just one person a week!
