Fellowship

Even though Faby’s health is limiting our visits, our home is open to everyone. Sunday, Abel, the pastor from Capulispungo who pastors the migrants in Quito, called: “Can we come for a visit?” “Sure!” I expected their family of five, but they came with another family, whom we know well, of four. The more the merrier! Put more water in the soup! I made some rice to eat with fried eggs. (The PBJ of Ecuador.) Suddenly I received another call: “Can we come and visit now?” “Sure!” The more the merrier. They are a family of only three, but came with another visitor. (They also brought a fried chicken.)
So about the same time, 1:30 pm, we received thirteen visitors: seven adults, one youth, and five kids. No problem. The more the merrier. The children spent their time in a small pool we have. Filled with hot water, they played until it was time to leave. (Forget about eating.) We adults enjoyed the combined food, then played Chinese checkers and “Jenga.” Good to see everyone and enjoy the fellowship.
We’ve been cleaning out our house. I gave Abel a whole set of inductive bible studies. He took them home, and after looking them over, realized he had a whole program for his church. Glad he can use them.
We continue to pray for Faby’s health. Improving, but not at 100% yet. We also hope to have another family move in with us and help us with cooking and gardening. All in God’s hands and timing.
