Great CO visit

Hey all
Just a few little bits of encouragement from our CO visit.  First we had almost half of the congregation out each morning for field service which was really nice.  Over 34 studies have been started in the past week.  We have 72 publishers in our congregation and the attendance for the meeting today Sunday was 174 so that shows the potential here for growth.  Actually after the CO finished the meeting today he asked all of us to keep our eyes open for land as he can see we are running out of space at our hall.  Guyana now comes under the Lands with limited Resources plan so the Branch covers the costs of building halls and our hall is one that has already been built under the arrangement but today proved we are running out of space.  The second school has already been opened up as space for extra and today we had over 50 sitting outside in the hot sun.  Yesterday the local brothers had to build some benches for the meeting today so most had a seat.  Cant wait to see the attendance for the memorial.  Last year was over well over 200.  Exciting times.  And to finish off a great week I had 5 studies come to the meeting today and one of the little boys actually answered up in the watchtower so you can imagine I'm buzzing right now.  They all seemed to enjoy it and the talks by the CO were really encouraging and he pleaded with all new ones to keep coming.  They actually want to come on thursday so I will keep you informed.  I know its a random blog but it just so encouraging to here of the growth all over the world.  
Take Care all of you.  Tomorrow its off to Suriname so please pray on tuesday for me and trisha as we face immigration.  
Bye for now  Winking smile
