A not so long ago in country far far away,

Hi, this is Shelby. Mum is doing better but had to stay home and rest so you get me instead. Dennis had two Bible studies come to the meeting on Sunday. He was very busy helping them with their new Bibles. Dennis now has 15 regular Bibles studies and numerous return visits.
Sunday moring Lorie and Dennis went up to Regent to see the land we own up there. There is a new panbody (a new tin shack with cement floor.) A man and his mother live there as the care takers for the land.
We have gone to the ocean twice. The water is so nice and warm and the waves a really big. Some of them taller then Dennis, crashing right over his head. Dennis has also ejoyed playing checkers, (learning again) and reading to the kids as there is no TV. By the way who won the world series? We do not get any American news here. So if you would like to email headlines you are more then welcome. You can send them to Loires email ls2n2@yahoo.com thank you!
Monday Dennis was able to work at Bethel running a jackhammar all day. Horray!! He sweat so much that he joked with the brothers ther that some kid had dumped a bucket of water over his head. As that is what it truely looked like.
Thursday Shelby went on her first Bible study in the afternoon. Anitia (her study) was very enthusiatic and had already read most of chapter one from the last week when Shelby left the book, Bible Teach. They went over the first 7 pages and Anitia asked why do we suffer and how to make family life happier. Shelby was able to share the Gennis acount and other scriptures with her to answer her questions. Shelby is very excited as her study wants her to come back Thursday at 3:30pm and is very eager to learn.
The little ones are doing very well they really like their new teacher and being able to hang out with Mom and Dad some much. Lorelle and Shelby have been playing their guitar more and now that do not sound horible but still not that good.
Last night Mom, Lorelle and Shelby were able to go upstair and hang otu with the girls. They had a good time and watched a movie. Sister Samoura has a TV but they do not use it too much.
Saturday Shelby was able to go to the French Bookstudy (again) with Sister Hanna. She had a really good time. She was able to answer once, but it is better then nothing. Shelby is really enjoying learning and getting to use her French. Lorie and Lorelle are learning a little bit at a time.
Other then that every one has been busy in the feild ministry and the kids with their school work. Things are going quite well. We miss you all and think about you all the time, Dennis will be coming back December 11th to work. We hope some of you will visit us here someday.
Thats all I wrote.
