after visitors

It's just me and Forrest at home again. As I already mentioned Tom and Chaffee were visiting before the convention, then after the convention we had Charlie and Karen, a couple in Spanish in Idaho, and Ryan, from Patterson Bethel.

Charlie had an amazing experience while he was here. One Tuesday morning he and Forrest went to go make a return visit on an 18(?) year old named Elvis (that's right). As they were going up to the house they saw someone looking at them, and that person smiled and waved. But they didn't think it was Elvis. Well, it was Elvis's brother Richard. They had a long conversation, and in it Richard revealed that he'd just been praying to God for help to understand the Bible. Well, they went back to start a study with him Thursday, and that Thursday night Richard came to the meeting. Interestingly, as he was walking to the meeting, looking for the Kingdom Hall, he ran into 2 separate old friends he hadn't seen in a long time. He asked each of them to come to the meeting with him, and the second one did. So, now that Charlie is gone Forrest is conducting the study with him, and, so far so good. :) We'll keep you posted.
