Circuit Overseer and District Overseer Visit

We just had a wonderful Circuit Overseer Visit and we also had the privilege of having the District Overseer for the whole week also.  They are both really great Couples.  Our CO is from Mexico and just arrived here in Panama just a little over 6 months ago.  Just last year the Panama Branch office was closed as were all of the other central American Branch Office except for Mexico.  Now the Mexico Branch office is in charge of all of central America so that has changed things alot and has meant that lots of CO's and Missionaries have been moved around.  It is interesting to see how the different couples adjust to different countries.  The District Overseer is from Panama.  They are a very nice couple and I realized that about year ago I got a flat tire and a man came out of a house close by to help me change it and little did I know that that person was the District Overseer.  He recognized my car.  We had a good laugh about it.  The week that they were here went by so fast especial because we here in the invitation work for the memorial but the visit was truly a blessing, just what the our congregation needed.

Circuit Overseer: Hermanos Ballenas and District Overseer: Hermanos Portes

First Day of Visit service.  There was a good size group about 20 which is about half of the all publishers.

And off we go in to the territory

Circuit Overseer : Hermanos Ballenas

District Overseer: Hermanos Portes Aren't they so cute.  They were the youngest assigned Circuit Overseer here in Panama, and you can still see there youthfulness.

Yup you are seeing that right there is a sister working in the literature counter.  Since there are so few brother in our hall the sister have had to step in to help with a few things.  That is Doris working in Literature.  She loves it so much because she like to organize so she couldn't be happier with her assignment.

Me with some of the other sisters.

I had the privileged of making dinner on Friday night.  I did it in different sister house because I was making enchiladas and need to make a alot and since my oven is so small it was going to be to hard to keep the food hot so Kelly was nice enough to let me have everyone over to her house.  It went good.  The CO and his wife enjoyed my wannabe Mexican enchiladas and were grateful so have some spicy food.

Sunday service after meeting.  I was not looking forward to service after meeting on Sunday because it is always so hot but since it was the CO visit I decided that i needed to just go.  I was very glad that I went it wasn't to hot and the time went flying by and it was the first time that I was able to work with the DO's wife.  When we doing things that Jehovah tells us to do it always seems to work out good.
