we especially worked the shulinab area after much prayer as to which village to concentrate on to start a new group so that surrounding villages couild be worked more fully by publishers from that area of shulinab . we had a few families that special interest and that were connected to a family in lethem that were origonally from nr shulinab so that greatly helped the progress of abraham (the noe serving captain of shulinabs brother)and his cornelia and 4 children . cornelia is the sister of neville( a publisher in lethem with his wife elizabeth and 3 children )so they quickly attended meetings we had from the beginning despite opposition from family and school children to their children .we are hopeful when we return in january to start visiting there again( after the rainey season that makes the road impassable )that the interest will still be there and they can start to publish at some stage . heres a pix of cornelia having a study with sinead and bethany and a visiting sister vydia persaud from georgetown .there was a group of us going out to shulinab every wednesday falicia wilson (from the states mid west i think )javan roff (from london england ex bethelite)and any visitors we could bring along .we have been working it only parts of 2 years (as we leave in rainey season to return home to work may-sept)and already we are haing great results with 150 at the first memorial and 100 at this years memorial !!!!mostly studies or ex studiesthis year which made it more meaningful .also we had a steady meeting attendance that we held in the football stands of up to 40 plus but a steady 35 every week , so we were pretty amazed and happy with our labours and jehovahs blessings on the little group there .on the next post i will do a run down of other bible students and what they had to face in there endeavors to serve jehovah .
