Today capped off a good week. Although we had to cancel Wednesday services due to heavy rains from Gustav which passed just to the south of our island, yesterday and today were both blessings. Yesterday we finally had a church outing that had been rescheduled twice. 
We filled up a school bus to capacity and by 7:30 AM were on our way to the south side of the island to explore Hacienda Buena Vista, a restored 1900 century coffee plantation. After a great tour we traveled to the city of Ponce for some shopping at a nice mall, a favorite with our women. By 6:00 PM we were back in Aguadilla, worn out but happy.I was a little apprehensive about our church attendance today considering so many were tired from the long trip the day before. To the contrary we had a full house. A men's ensemble from the San Juan area presented a great concert. As best as we could tell there was around one-hundred and fifteen for church, pretty much filling up the building. Afterwards, Mary, Tania (our daughter-in-law) and Santo's wife, Monsi, prepared lunch for the choir and the members of the church board and their families.
Take care. Thanks for partnering with us.
Johnathan and Mary
