We have been unable to update the blog due to how busy we have been. Sorry :( (1 Corinthians 15:58) We are coming to the end of our incredible journey we have had here in Dominica. Of course we are sad for leaving because of the many brothers and sisters that have become our close friends and spiritual companions, at the same time we are happy to be able to see our friends and family back home in New England. Around the world we are all sharing in our worship of Jehovah whether it comes though our experiences in the ministry, up building association, or weekly congregation meetings we are all strengthening our relationship with Jehovah! We just got to go to Dominica :P (smiley face with tongue sticking out) We are leaving Dominica January 13th, staying in St. Lucia for a day and will be home and at our first meeting January 16th, a Sunday.* Plan to see us then. :) Until then enjoy this blog of our brothers and sisters, hikes and AWESOMENESS!

Here are some pictures of our hike to the Boiling Lake! It is a 15 mile 2-3 hour hike one way to the Boiling Lake. In order to get there you have to cross a couple of rivers and pass through the Valley of Desolation! It is a constant up and down battle, maybe 1 or 2 flat areas. It is truly amazing to see the wonderful creation of Jehovah! (Revelation 4:11)

Thank the friends there in Dominica for caring for you and for all their hard work in Jah's service! We look forward to seeing you soon and if there is anyway you can bring 5 gallons home of that mud we can try and market it on EBAY! Yippy!
