Last week we spent a week in Ebeye (a different island than where we live).  We did a zone conference and Steve checked out the Hospital

The baptism was done just offshore in the lagoon. The witnesses just took off their shoes, rolled up their pants legs, and waded in.

Pres. Shaw will be transferring us to a different island for a few months. The island is called Tarawa. It will be quite different than our life in Majura. We are living in luxury now compared to what things will be like there. But it will be an experience of a lifetime!
