So this is what we woke up to this morning! |
Sooo we have been spoiled with the food so far! |
Sooo notice how big the bananas are! After we ate breakfast which was around 630AM we started to prepare for the field ministry! We had a brief service meeting which took place at the house we are staying at and the meeting took place sometime after 9... There was a total of 9 brothers and sisters out in the ministry and this was one of many groups that went out this morning, seeing how we saw a couple other groups later on in the day. So we jumped into the back of the pick-up truck and headed out in service. Anthony got to work with Anthony, or tony. and S.Diego got to work with Stephen! The ministry was very responsive and everyone you spoke to gave you the time of day! As far as the language well we wouldnt say it was MOSTLY english or MOSTLY french, rather, it was i mix of them both which is creole. When speaking to them they would sometimes drift off in mid sentence speaking french, but you would be able to pick up a couple english words and get the jist of what they were saying. All in all service here is incredible and people actually talk back (in a good way)! We will definitely enjoy ourselves in Dominica... haha... once we get there. :)
MMMMMMM BANANA! Look how talented Anthony is! Its not 4 to a car its 9 to a car! More Saint Lucia! Anthony X2! While going on bumpy roads going fast! |
Now for Lunch!!!! More food... well is it bread or is it fruit? Why not both! For lunch we had breadfruit, swordfish and vegetables! We drained it all down with Guava juice! We are wondering whats for dinner....haha :)
