A bssb, a special pioneer and a bethelite  studying with 3 PJ men.   A few months back I wrote about the "public talk" experience.  These PJ men are part of that group. 


And these are the wives and kids.  The picture does not show it, but all of us are in one large room. Hence the head covering.

(is this a fore gleam of a PJ cong.?  Imagine! if just this one household came into the truth!)


There are times, even while having the best bible discussions day after day, one can remain in a really bad mood. Primrose oil does not cut it.  Positive thinking does not cut it.  Thus, EVERY NIKI(tiny) THING  that never bothered one before, now bothers one.   So come! Spend a day with me on a negative feeling positive service day.   Your hot humid day begins in the Jeepny where the 30 people’ s sweat  (note: normal capacity 20) may never have bothered you before, but now, perhaps you feel like screaming  (which inside you are), “stop touching me!”(note: On a jeepny ride, there is no such thing as “this is my space” .  No!  it does not exist.  No boundaries on what is too close.  No rules.  love those 30 peeps as your family real  quick! -  cheek to cheek - and I don’t mean the cheeks on your face! ) After  a wonderful discussion with your 1st HH, she pleads, “please, can you study with me every week?  And I will read the lesson ahead of time so I can be better prepared too,”.  Wow! you are touched.  To tears.  Negative thinking be gone!  As you forget the yucky.  That is until, a van door comes  off the hinges and almost “crushes” you (this van the brother had just fixed for his poor mother who let us borrow it for the day)  and the neighborhood comes to help you fix it, but its all good.  Positive thinking.  Back in the house,  your foot touches something wet, why is your foot damp ?  hmmm, . . .(don’t look down), so  off course you look down, AHHHHHHHH!!!  It is rabbit poop! (you cannot say anything cuz HH will be embarrassed since they are already timid about their untimely quarters).  Thank goodness for tea tree oil, peroxide, and germicidal body soap.  
Typhoon "Pedring," (maximum sustained winds of 140 kilometers per hour with gusts of up to 170 kph) hit pretty hard. My immediate area just suffered power outages but other cities about an hour away suffered much more.  Some brothers and sisters were stuck on the roof of their homes for 4 days, without food and water. We may head that way on Wednesday to do some relief work.  Have many studies scheduled this week. The touching part about all these calls is that they remember we are coming back, they wait for us, "we waited for you, you did say you were coming back so . . .". 
p.s. if you watched last weeks bhangra video, please ignore the writing - it was a storyline that belonged to another movie I had made earlier but forgot to delete the story line.  ugh!
