This just gives you a taste for how much you have to change your ministry focus and style when you come here. Jen has had a great almost 3 weeks of service here as I have already blogged but today she said she is actually started to get bored of saying the same presentation so many times to so many people per morning. So she is working on mixing things up by carrying different types of literature to offer her more variety as the volume of people that listen here is just so high. Have you ever heard of such a thing. I asked her if she ever has that issue at home and the answer was no. But here almost everyone is at home and almost everyone wants to listen so you have to adjust so much from the english way. Also she is getting more in the way of placing more literature. Again back home you are more cautious of not wasting literature but here people value bible literature so so much you can place a brochure or tract with someone and then also offer them the latest mags and they will eat it up which is fabulous but does take some getting used to. So many times you walk away from a door and see the householder reading through what you left them. I did warn her this is pioneers paradise hehehehe. The thing is here as Ive said before education is so limited so you have to simplify your presentation so much, so in the beginning its good to stick to one literature offer until you get to know how to speak to the householder in a simple way but within just a few short weeks she is getting bored as there is just so much interest. Can you imagine coming home from service being shattered from talking to interested people so much. Amazing isnt it. Im so so happy for her so thought you would like to know how we have spent our friday night. Raiding the literature stores so jen has more variety for saturday morning service.
Hope you all have a great weekend.
Love Me
